Bondage cuffs

Bondage cuffs may be fastened at the wrists and/or ankles by a locking mechanism, by a buckle or by velcro.

Bondage cuffs are typically secured to each wrist and ankle, and to each other and other objects depending on the needs of each play.

Unlike bondage cuffs, the primary design goals of handcuffs are not comfort and safety, but immobilization and prevention of escape, and they are not padded to try to reduce the risk of nerve damage and other injuries.

Nevertheless, as with all restraint devices, it is still possible for the use of bondage cuffs to cause serious injuries if misused or not monitored carefully.

Ordinary bondage cuffs are not designed to be safe when used to carry any significant load.
