Willy warmer

[10] Dawn Steel, while working as a merchandiser for Penthouse in the early 1970s, found hand-knitted "cock socks" in Frankfurt, and subsequently secured the rights to market "extra large" red, blue and white versions through the magazine.

[14] It was claimed in 1991 that King Charles III, received a green knitted warmer one Christmas, which was stored with other unusual gifts in the cellar at Highgrove House.

[1] In male nude photography, as published in magazines such as Playgirl, cock socks have become a humorous substitute for the fig leaf, deliberately focusing attention upon the area concealed.

[16] Early 21st century willy warmers are often made to represent religious or political themes, or in the form of animals.

[8] British reality TV star Bobby-Cole Norris has repeatedly made headlines for his choice of willy warmers as swimwear, including both a simple pouch[18] and an anatomically correct variety.
