Cock Rings

What is a Cock Ring?

A cock ring, also known as a penis ring or love ring, is a popular male sex toy that is used to enhance sexual performance for the pleasure of the wearer and their partner.

Cock rings come in many shapes and sizes, but most involve a loop that is placed around the base of the penis (and sometimes testicles), and the tightness on the shaft creates a longer-lasting, harder erection. Penis rings can intensify the wearer’s orgasm, and some models even have rabbit vibrators attached so there’s good vibes and great O’s all round. If your goal is mutual climax, with this fab sex toy you’ll be one step closer.

How to Use a Cock Ring

If you’ve never used a penis ring before and you’re wondering why someone would use one, that’s perfectly okay. They do help with sexual stamina, but also they have many other functions that might just make them the Lord of the Rings. Cock rings can have an impact on the physical appearance of the penis, making it look slightly bigger, with more pronounced veins. This makes them fun to use in role play with a partner or for solo play as they allow both the wearer and receiver to experience new and exciting sensations.

One of the other misconceptions about using a cock rings is that you need a penis to enjoy one… Well, surprisingly - despite the name - this isn’t true! Penis rings (especially the vibrating kind) can be used by women, whether that’s to slip over a dildo to make a custom rabbit, place on a strap-on, or wrap around your hand for manual stimulation (great for lesbian couples!).
