Sleepsack (BDSM)

Generally sleepsacks are very tight on the body, much like mummification, which adds to the total encasement aspect of the experience.

Sleepsacks are designed so the person is as immobile as possible, while offering a convenient alternative to the time-consuming wrapping of elastic bandages and/or sticky mess of athletic tape associated with traditional mummy-type bondage.

Of course virtually any flexible material, from denim to saran wrap, from wool to nylon stockings, or just a sleeping bag and rope, may be used to achieve the desired feel of total encasement.

To further add to the confining aspects of the sleepsack, there are usually straps or belts that go around the body at intervals along the length of the sack, starting at the collar and going down to the ankles.

There are many options that can be built into a sleepsack, including separate zippers or removable flaps at nipples, a zipper from the lower spine to below the buttocks, attachable hoods, removable foot sacks, smooth leather lining, padding, internal arm sleeves, etc.

Highly specialized leather sleepsacks have additional strapping and reinforcement allowing the sack and its occupant to be suspended in various positions safely.

In all cases, allowing the leather plenty of time to air-out and dry before being stored is very important, as moisture can lead to mould developing inside the sleepsack.

Neoprene sleepsacks offer a similar stretch and feel of rubber with less wear and tear damage due to the material's stronger properties.

Neoprene does not stretch as easily as rubber offering a firmer restriction approaching that provided by leather sleep sacks.

One main benefit of Darlexx sleepsacks is they are significantly cheaper than leather and rubber, and can accommodate a wider range of sizes due to how much it can comfortably stretch.

Although still very confining Darlexx does not put as much compression on the body as rubber, making it more comfortable to stay in for longer periods of time.

Sleepsacks also provide a great way to secure someone for many types of bondage and BDSM play, which may or may not include sexual activity.
