1969 L'audacieuse Cock Ring Sleeve

Snug but fixable

The previous reviewer is bang on. This wonderful device is WAY too tight straight from the box, but I didn't give up on it. To stretch it out, I put it over a thin deodorant can for 12 hours and now it fits perfectly. :)

Lube is required to get it on in the first place but once on it's going nowhere (well, nowhere it isn't meant to go).

My wife and I both really enjoy using this toy and I'd recommend it unless you have a wide girth - more than 1.7 inches wide is going to be an issue for tightness. At 1.6 I needed to stretch it out a good bit.

Looking forward to seeing more from this company :)

Nearly right, but just too tight

First, in the interests of fairness, I should say that I don't get on with cock rings. I love the idea of them, but haven't found one yet that fits me properly and lives up to my expectations; they're usually too tight for me, and this was no exception...

Presentation

The 1969 l'Audacieuse Cock Ring comes in a baffling yet stylish package, with layer upon layer of card, more card, a plastic sleeve and a foam cut-out insert to keep the ring in place. While I did really like the overall effect, part of me wonders whether a simpler box would be less wasteful of materials. However, I was thoroughly impressed with the product itself: a ladder of four rings (the ring at the base is slightly thicker than the rest) in a subtle, dusky shade of silicone. Perfect! I've not encountered 1969 before, and from the looks of this product anyone interested in stylish, high-quality sex toys should investigate the rest of their range.

Use

The ring is easy to wear; simply slide it over the erect penis, using a little silicone-friendly lubricant to help it glide into place. Once on, the stack of rings gives a firm pressure that envelops the base of the shaft. As I said, I would have preferred a slightly larger diameter ring set and a longer stack of rings, but I'd imagine many people would find the size just right.

The product is intended to prolong and enhance erections, as well as providing an interesting texture to stimulate your partner - while we found it novel, the tightness proved too much for me and ended up being more of a hindrance to my performance than a help.

Overall

I loved this product, and really, really wanted it to work. Despite it not quite hitting the spot, it is still by far the best cock ring I've tried, and I will certainly be keeping my eyes open for new 1969 products in the future. For now I'd just advise people to really take note of the dimensions before ordering products like this, as a fraction of an inch more or less can make a huge difference to your enjoyment!
