SportSheets Vibrating Velvet Strap-On Harness Review
Posted on March 4th, 2008 in Bedroom Bling, Reviews
Over the last few months I’ve received a lot of questions about strap-on sex, and which harnesses are better than others. I decided that it was high time I feature some of the products I’ve been pointing you towards, and thus started with the feeldoe, and then the tantus attachment, and now I’d like to tell you a bit about the SportSheets Vibrating Velvet Strap-On Harness. This isn’t my first strap-on harness, although this is the only harness review I’ve written thus far. Jack and I bought a Vac-U-Lock harness some years back, and it’s languished in our toy locker, save for a couple of uses during which I found it awkward and unsatisfactory for it’s intended use.
As harnesses go, the traditional underwear style fit is not my favorite by any stretch. You know what I am talking about don’t you, the basic waist strap and then piece that goes between the legs. They are generally one-size-fits-all but I’ve never really felt that they offered enough support, or held the attachment snugly enough that natural movement was possible.
The SportSheets harness is more like a jockstrap, which provides a more secure fit in my rarely humble opinion It consists of a waist strap, a frontal piece which has a pocket for a vibrating bullet, as well as the ring which you slide your attachment through, and then two straps from the ring which go between your legs, across the crease where your rear meets your thighs and then meets the waist portion at your hips. It’s very easily adjustable, and will fit a very wide range of sizes.
The entire thing is made out of nylon webbing (save the front portion which is made out of synthetic fabric) which makes it very easy to clean. After use I just hand wash mine with a bit of antibacterial soap in a sink full of warm water. Rinse and hang to dry before storing. Just make sure to remove the vibrating bullet (which is included by the way) before you put the harness in water.
Another thing I love about this harness is that it comes with three sizes of changeable rings, for different sizes and types of attachments. The different sizes of tantus attachments for example work best with different sizes of rings, as do the different sizes of feeldoe. You just snap open the ends of the straps and put in whichever sized ring best fits your particular toy.
Speaking of the feeldoe, this harness is totally compatible, and it makes the feeldoe much easier to use, and fit more securely. If you’re looking for a combo that allows both partners to experience a mutually pleasurable strap-on sex experience, I’d highly recommend the feeldoe with this particular harness.

Good morning Shasta,
Great review! I havn’t heard of that harness before. I always enjoy your reviews because I learn about new toys that I havn’t heard of and am able to hear whether or not it’s a good toy to buy.
XOXO

maybe i need to give this style another try… this is the same style i’ve used before, and it felt like an obstacle course getting in to it, and it never felt particularly secure just on – never mind while actually trying to fuck someone with it the Vac-U-Lock harness was actually easier for me to get into, and seemed pretty sturdy. le sigh.
maybe i need to come over for a tutorial?

i had a dream about this harness last night – or perhaps it was this afternoon. in the dream i had a very attractive, very rough and tumble, super masculine boy fitting me for a hiking pack, which for some reason had a harness bottom like this, rather than the waist belt my bigger packs have in reality.
after helping me into the harness part proper, he tightened the chest strap, the shoulder straps, and because it was a high pack, the head strap as well. i was totally contained in the strapping of the pack. damn it was hot.
i wonder if i can get me one at Mountain Equipment Co-op…
