Why buy a leather body harness?
A harness is essentially both an item of bondage and a visual accessory to showcase your love of BDSM.
Many of the harnesses in my collection, for example, are suited to both of the above points. I know that when I go to a fetish club that I’ll fit right in as a member of the community because a harness is almost part of the uniform. And, my harness can also be coupled-up with handcuffs, ropes and even utilized for suspension, so it’s both visually appealing and practical in a bondage sense.
Can you wear a leather body harness as an item of clothing?
Well, I suppose technically you can wear anything as an item of clothing. Whether you’d want to wear some of the harnesses in this guide when going down to the shops is another question!
Although, some of the more ‘standard’ harnesses can absolutely be used as a clothing accessory (just keep in mind that a lot of the harnesses in this guide are not made for solely that purpose).
Let’s get into the guide.

How to use (and look after) a leather body harness
You can use harnesses in many ways, whether that’s for submission and surrendering all control or looking more domineering and in charge; leather harnesses can portray both sides of the BDSM coin!
Many harnesses come with buckles or adjustable straps that are simple to tighten or loosen depending on your size or what you are using the harness for. Many harnesses have something that you can expose, whether a buttock, vagina, penis, breasts or pecks. This is so your dom can tease and stimulate you whilst strapped down.
Prices
Prices vary from harness to harness, depending on what they do and what is included. Many harnesses cost around $40 to $60, and that’s due to some having metal chains, restraints and add-ons.
You are not only paying for the quality of the product; you are also paying for its longevity, and depending on how you look after these body harnesses depends on how long they will last.
Cleaning
Treating and looking after leather is essential so your harness will last long-term and so that the leather won’t split or fray. Harnesses with metal or chains just need to be wiped clean and then dried off thoroughly, so there is no risk of rusting. Use cleaning materials such as:
- Warm, Soapy Water,
- Sanitising Wipes,
- Leather Treatment Oils.
Storage
Storing your harnesses is just as important as cleaning them. Many harnesses come in boxes that you can use for storage. Ensure to clean and put them in a box and a bag to keep any dust or debris off them. Also, ensure that they are adequately dried; otherwise, the harnesses can deteriorate.
With clothing or harnesses, make sure to store them in a dry, clean place away from debris and dust and make sure to clean them regularly or after every use.

As h12321 said about the DOMINIX Deluxe Leather Collar with Clamps, “The best thing about this is that the chains are very sturdy and of great quality without being too heavy or getting in the way too much. Getting it on is relatively simple, has a great design and good quality chains. The clamps are very good. They can be adjusted easily and can be taken off by the person wearing them if necessary.”
