Have you ever wondered what it might feel like to take the lead with a toy and explore that kind of role-play with a partner? Whether you’re curious about deeper throat play, anal play, or simply want to experience the confidence and versatility that comes with wearing one, strap-on dildos can open up a whole new side of pleasure.

Top 10 Strap-On Dildos in 2026
Make no mistake: wearing a big bold strap-on dildo will make you feel powerful. It will help you experience sex in a whole different way! Still, buying your first strap-on is not as easy as picking out any old vibrator or butt plug. You have to focus on the type of dildo, your body measurements, the dildo size, the harness type and materials, along with some special features. But, if you want to dive straight in without overthinking it, check out my list of the hottest strap-on dildos I’ve tested so far!
Doc Johnson Vac-U-Lock Realistic Feel Advanced Strap-On Dildo
Most Versatile
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
232
- Material: Ultraskyn
- Power source: Hand
- Length: 203 mm / 8 in
- Pros
- More cock than you’ll ever get!
- The Vac-U-Lock plugs are fantastic (plus they look like cute little butt plugs!)
- The kit is super versatile for solo and coupled fun
- Cons
- All of the dildos have the same width
- The dildo material is not the safest
These Vac-U-Locks are some of the strongest I’ve ever tried. It also doesn’t hurt that they look like miniature butt plugs – they’re so darn cute!
The versatility of this set is unmatched, as you can have the time of your life both on your own and with a partner. With that said, all the dildos have the same width, so you won’t be able to experiment in that regard.
One thing that worries me is the squishy material. While it feels heavenly, it’s not the easiest to clean, so this toy may not be the safest choice on the market.
Bottom line: the best versatile kit – strongest Vac-U-Lock attachments, solo and partner use, multiple dildos in one set. All dildos same width; squishy material needs careful cleaning.
VixSkin Vixen Mustang
Best Realistic Dildo
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
197
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Total length: 178 mm / 7 in
- Insertable length: 165 mm / 6.5 in
- Widest insertable point: 41 mm / 1.6 in
- Pros
- Personally, I loved the 6.5-inch size even if I prefer bigger cocks
- The dual-density design and VixSkin material make this dildo feel incredible
- The suction cup is high quality and it won’t slip off during use!
- Cons
- It might be a bit too small if you like bigger dicks, but that’s up to you
- No balls - Again, personal preference, people!
- It’s expensive (but it’s damn worth it!!!)
Most of the time, I prefer bigger dildos. However, this one was so realistic and girthy that I did not mind the 6.5-inch length one bit.
As with all its products, VixSkin uses dual-skin technology for this toy. It works wonders in making the toy feel like the real deal, from the texture to the overall flexibility and squishiness.
The base is of premium quality and compatible with all types of straps. I only wish the dildo came with a set of realistic balls, but this fact didn’t take too much away from my enjoyment.
Bottom line: the most realistic feel – dual-skin technology, incredibly girthy at 6.5 inches, compatible with all strap types. No balls base is the only miss.
Leroy Dual Density Uncut
Best Uncut Model
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
139
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Total length: 247.6 mm / 9.75 in
- Insertable length: 228.6 mm / 9 in
- Wide at the ridge: 54.3 mm / 2.14 in
- Wide at the shaft: 52.3 mm / 2.06 in
- Pros
- It’s massive!
- The uncut foreskin looks cool, but it’s an acquired taste
- It fits into my strap-on harness perfectly
- Cons
- It’s expensive!
- No suction cup
- Personally, it would look better if it had a big pair of balls.
It’s not easy being an uncut lover in a world where pretty much all dildos resemble circumcised penises. SheVibe recognizes this fact, which is why it has made this delicious uncut dildo.
Now, I can’t say I prefer uncut models. In fact, I think regular dildos feel better during insertion, as the foreskin made things a bit uncomfortable for me in the beginning.
Still, the length and girth of this shaft are both immaculate, so I got over the initial discomfort pretty quickly. Plus, the dildo fits just about any strap out there perfectly, which is a feat.
Bottom line: the best uncut option – excellent length and girth, fits any strap perfectly. Foreskin design causes initial discomfort for some users; gets better with use.
Blush Neo Elite
Best Anal Dildo
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
82
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Length: 190.5 mm / 7.5 in
- Insertable length: 177.8 mm / 7 in
- Insertable Width: 38 mm / 1.5 in
- Circumference: 119.3 mm / 4.7 in
- Pros
- Strong suction cup adheres to all surfaces, including matte tiles
- The tapered head makes anal extra enjoyable
- Compatible with a harness
- Cons
- The texture and overall floppiness make hands-free insertion difficult
- No veins or noticeable ridges in the texture
When I first tried this dildo, I wasn’t impressed. The texture is a bit plain, as there are no noticeable bumps or veins that would provide inner stimulation. The only redeemable quality was the tapered head, which felt great during insertion.
However, I then tried using the dildo for anal and I was sold immediately. It slides in so easily and it’s the ideal size and girth to fill you up nicely without hurting you.
To make it actually perfect for anal play, I’d just make it a bit firmer. As it is, it’s nearly impossible to insert hands-free, which is a damn shame.
Bottom line: the best for anal – slides in effortlessly, ideal size and girth for backdoor use. Too flexible for hands-free insertion; plain texture offers minimal internal stimulation.
VixSkin Vixen Maverick
Best Girth
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
72
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Total length: 203 mm / 8 in
- Insertable length: 178 mm / 7 in
- Widest insertable point: 51 mm / 2 in
- Pros
- 7.5 inches long, great for water-play and suction cup sticks to any hard surface
- Realistic-looking with a curved shaft; great for G-spot or P-spot stimulation
- Harness-compatible and suitable for strap-on action thanks to the flat base
- Cons
- Not the best starter dildo because of its large size
- Not very affordable
Few dildos are as good for G and P-spot stimulation as this model. It curves deliciously, all the while resembling the real deal pretty closely.
Thanks to the flat base, the dildo is suitable both for straps and for hands-free use. The suction cup adheres to any firm surface and it’s resistant to water, so you can easily use it in the shower or bath.
While the dildo is a bit more expensive than its features might suggest, I think it’s well worth it. Besides the fact that it’ll last for years, the toy will give you some of the best orgasms you’ve ever had.
Bottom line: the best G-spot and P-spot curved dildo – suction cup + strap compatible, water-resistant, delivers some of the best orgasms on the list. Premium priced for its feature set.
Fun Factory Limba Flex
Easiest to Use
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
67
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Non-porous and hypoallergenic
- Length: 119.3 mm / 4.7 in
- Insertable Length: 110 mm / 4.33 in
- Wide: 30.4 mm / 1.2 in
- Pros
- Easy to move around to increase inner stimulation
- Strong and stable suction cup base makes hands-free use extra fun
- Versatile toy that can help you stimulate the A, G and P-spot
- Cons
- The material is sticky, so it catches lint and dust
- The toy is a bit difficult to insert for anal use
This toy is one of the easiest to move around after insertion. It’s on the smaller side, but it still provides exquisite inner stimulation.
The suction cup base is strong and extra stable, so you can use it hands-free without any worries. It is a bit more difficult to insert it without your hands if you want to enjoy it anally, though.
Considering its more than affordable price, it is not too shocking that the toy isn’t made of the best materials out there. It collects lint and dust too easily and is difficult to clean, meaning that you get what you (don’t) pay for.
Bottom line: the most flexible and affordable – strong suction cup, easy to maneuver post-insertion. Difficult to insert anally without hands; material collects lint and dust.
Strap-on-me Squirting Dildo
Best Squirting Toy
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
51
- Material: Silicone, ABS Plastic
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Total length: 195.5 mm / 7.7 in
- Insertable length: 165 mm / 6.5 in
- Width: 38 mm / 1.5 in
- Pros
- Comes with a free 70 ml syringe full of sperm-like lube
- 100% waterproof and harness-compatible
- The dense material retains shape after use, making subsequent insertion easier
- Cons
- Basic in terms of inner stimulation as the surface is smooth
- The material’s density is a bit too low for the price
This unique toy molds perfectly to your inner walls thanks to the density of the material. Just as importantly, it goes back to its original shape as soon as you’re done using it.
The 70 ml syringe full of lube is included in the package and the liquid resembles sperm perfectly. Everything is easy to handle and 100% waterproof, making cleanup effortless.
However, the catch is that the dildo’s surface is entirely smooth, with no veins or even slight imperfections. As such, it doesn’t offer much in terms of inner stimulation, which was a bit of a letdown for me.
Bottom line: the best ejaculating option – body-conforming material, 70ml lube syringe included, 100% waterproof. Smooth surface only; minimal internal stimulation for the receiving partner.
Doc Johnson Silicone Hollow Strap-On Kit
Best Kit
Tried it? Rate it! ( user's ratings directly affect the position of products in this table)
43
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-Free
- Waterproof: Submersible
- Canal diameter: 44.4 mm / 1.75 in
- Circumference: 177.8 mm / 7 in
- Insertable Length: 203 mm / 8 in
- Length: 203 mm / 8 in
- Pros
- 3 different size dildos suitable for extending, pegging or penetration play
- Soft bulbed shaft ensures fulfilling internal stimulation
- Feels great on your skin and is fully body-safe
- Cons
- The size only accommodates waists of up to 48 inches
- Only compatible with water-based lubes
With its stretchy harness and three differently-sized dildos, this kit has everything you need to explore the world of pegging and penetration play. The material feels great against the skin and is incredibly lightweight.
Each dildo has a swollen, bulbous head. This fact makes insertion quite pleasurable. However, the rest of the shaft is smooth and I would’ve loved some intricate veins and bumps instead.
The smoothness does have an advantage, though. Namely, the toys are super easy to clean and dry and you can get everything done and ready for next time in just a few minutes.
Bottom line: the best beginner hollow kit – stretchy harness, three sizes, bulbous heads, lightweight and easy to clean. Smooth shafts only; no veining or texture.

- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Circumference near head (rim): 158.7 mm / 6.25 in
- Circumference near middle: 184 mm / 7.25 in
- Circumference near balls: 185.4 mm / 7.30 in
- Overall length: 273 mm / 10.75 in
- Insertable length: 219.7 mm / 8.65 in
- Max Insertable Width: 58.9 mm / 2.32 in
- Pros
- Compatible with both Lock On and Vac-U-Lock accessories
- Hyper-realistic texture that includes bumps, ridges and veins
- 100% body-safe and compatible with all lube types
- Cons
- It might not be firm enough for your needs
- A bit too pricey considering the features
This toy is compatible with Lock On and Vac-U-Lock accessories alike, making it rather versatile. It also has a beautiful design that caught my eye as soon as it came out!
I loved the realistic feel of the toy, especially while it was inside me. The veins, bumps, ridges and slight skin imperfections were done perfectly and they made my experience fantastic.
While the toy itself is of excellent quality, it is a bit too flexible for my taste. It’s also on the more expensive side if you take into account its features, but the durability might make that worth it.
Bottom line: the most compatible and versatile system – Lock On + Vac-U-Lock compatible, beautiful realistic design, excellent internal feel. Too flexible for firm thrusting; premium price.

Most Flexible

18
- Material: Silicone
- Power source: Hand
- Allergens: Phthalate-free - Non-porous
- Length: 304.8 mm / 12 in
- Insertable Length: 292 mm / 11.5 in
- Width at the head: 63.5 mm / 2.5 in
- Width at the shaft: 61 mm / 2.4 in
- Pros
- Made with body-safe silicone and dyed with natural pigments
- Veined texture makes for a realistic feel
- Soft and squishy, so it easily molds to your body
- Cons
- The toy is quite heavy – it weighs a little over 2 pounds
- Not compatible with all harnesses
Don’t let the funky color drive you away – this toy is dyed with 100% natural ingredients, so it’s fully body-safe. The silicone makes for a realistic feel and look, which is a big plus in my books.
The texture is superb and the curvature of the shaft is ideal for P and G-spot stimulation. Just bear in mind that the dildo weighs a little over 2 pounds, which is pretty heavy for its quite average size.
Also, I have to say that the toy isn’t compatible with every harness out there. So, check your own model(s) before buying anything.
Bottom line: the best G-spot and P-spot silicone pick – natural-ingredient dye, superb texture and curvature, body-safe. Weighs over 2lbs for average size; not compatible with all harnesses.

Back To The Top 10 Strap-On Dildos
Strap-On Dildos: The Complete Guide To Wearable Penetration
“You may not wear the pants in your relationship, but you can always wear a massive strap-on dildo around your waist to show your lover who’s boss!”
Your mission here is pretty simple: secure the toy comfortably with a harness and you’re ready to take the lead and explore new dynamics with your partner. A strap-on dildo is designed to attach to your body, giving you control and versatility for a wide range of shared experiences.
That said, getting the most out of it takes a bit of thought. If you want a smooth, enjoyable experience for both partners, it’s important to choose a high-quality strap-on and harness that offer stability, comfort, and a secure fit. The right setup makes all the difference in creating a natural, confident feel during use.
Wear It Like You Mean It
I’ve always seen strap-ons as some of the most versatile and creative toys out there. They can completely shift the dynamic, adding a new level of confidence, control, and exploration to intimacy. Over time, they’ve changed the way I look at pleasure and connection with a partner. If you’re open to trying something different and expanding your experiences, a strap-on dildo can easily become a go-to favorite.
But let’s get real… Not all of us are born with a body that agrees with our sexual preferences. If that were true, I’ll guarantee you that every dude on this planet would ask for a second penis. Nevertheless, gender fluidity has become much more accepted in the world in recent times and the sales of strap-ons are going through the freaking roof. Why? Well, these are pretty much the only toys that can help you experiment with role reversal. Take it from me: wearing a big bold strap-on dildo will make you feel powerful. It will help you experience sex in a whole different way!
Now, if you want to wear a strap-on, all I can tell you is that using one will help you navigate an entirely new role. For some people, that can help them to reclaim their sexual confidence and make them feel reborn. To others, these toys provide infinitely kinky and highly experimental fun along with epic orgasms. Trust me: these bad boys will make you do things you never thought were possible!
Confession Time: Losing My Strap-On Virginity
I’ve spent years exploring strap-ons and testing different options with partners in all kinds of settings. My first experience actually happened when a friend invited me over for dinner. After a relaxed evening and a few drinks, things naturally became more intimate. At one point, she introduced a strap-on harness, and curiosity quickly took over.
I’ll admit, it felt a bit unfamiliar at first. But the moment I saw myself in the mirror wearing it, something clicked. It wasn’t just about the toy, it was about the shift in confidence and perspective. Even though I was still figuring out the movement and rhythm, the experience felt surprisingly natural and empowering.
From that point on, strap-ons became a regular part of my experiences. They added variety, excitement, and a completely different dynamic to intimacy. The biggest takeaway? If you’re curious, trying a strap-on can open the door to new sensations, roles, and a stronger sense of confidence. It’s all about exploring what feels right for you and your partner.
Types of Strap-On Dildos
Strap-on dildos and harnesses come in a broad range of styles. Since there are so many options out there, choosing the perfect one can actually be quite overwhelming. But don’t worry, we can categorize a strap-on depending on:
- The type of harness
- How the dildo attaches to the harness
- How the harness fastens to the wearer
- The type of dildo
The trick is to find the perfect system that suits your body and feels good for the receiving partner. Let’s look into some of the hottest dildo types you can get:
Realistic Strap-On Dildos
A realistic strap-on dildo will look and feel exactly like a thick veiny penis. These types of toys are meticulously crafted to replicate every inch of the male anatomy. They’ll give you a thick and hard shaft to play. Plus, you’ll get multiple throbbing veins, juicy testicles and a mouth-watering head. You can get them in any color or size you prefer. Available in every skin tone from pale to deep brown, with fantasy colors too – there’s a shade for every preference.
What’s more, realistic strap-on dildos are flexible. You can use them in all kinds of positions. They are usually made of body-safe materials such as silicone or TPE. Honestly, some of these dildos look and feel so deliciously real that you won’t be able to tell the difference.
Just imagine looking down at your crotch and seeing a big bold shaft at your waist while your partner gets to experience your new size from an entirely new angle!
Double Penetration Strap-On Dildos
Ever wondered how it feels to double the fun? Well, there are various different DP strap-on dildo types that you can use for ultra-intense double penetration sex. The most common variant is a standard strap-on configuration that gives you two stacked dildos, one for vaginal stimulation and one for anal!
However, you’ll also find DP strap-ons for men. These toys attach around your male partner’s waist and give him another penis to penetrate you with. The third type of DP strap-on is actually a strapless toy with two insertable ends. How does it work? Well, one end goes inside your vagina and your muscles keep it tight and firm inside you. The other end sticks out like a real schlong and you can use it to penetrate your partner. That way, you and your partner will feel strong penetrative sensations at the same time! You’ll be squirting all over each other in minutes!
Vibrating Strap-On Dildos
These are some of my top choices for ultra steamy lesbian sex and intense pegging. Vibrating strap-on dildos can produce deep and rumbly sensations during penetration. There’s a lot to cover here, including rabbit-like dildos that come with an external clit stimulator as well as double strap-on dildos that vibrate.
Generally, these toys come with strong internal vibrating mechanisms and they’ll give you tons of vibration options to play with. You can use them for deep throbbing sensations. Plus, they’ll deliver highly intense external stimulation if you rub them all over your partner’s clit or nipples. They’ll literally perform miracles if you want to use them to massage your female partner’s G-spot or stimulate your male partner’s prostate with pinpoint precision!
Rotating Strap-On Dildos
Some strap-on dildos can rotate or thrust automatically. Not only will they enable you to hold a long firm toy in your hands, but they’ll also move like a full-on sex machine!
These toys are fantastic if you want to go the extra mile and get something that does all the work for you. They are a great option if you don’t want to thrust so much while pounding your partner. They’ll deliver some of the most unique automatized sensations compared to all other sex toys.
Also, if you want to be the one taking an enormous rotating penis in your pleasure cave, these dildos will twist and turn deep inside you. They’ll milk your G-spot or drill your booty hands-free to make your whole body shake!
Hollow Strap-On Dildos
Hollow strap-on dildos are sex toys for men and other penis owners who want to extend the size of their junk. They are fully hollow on the inside. This allows the wearer to slide his penis in and instantly get a size boost. These toys are a fantastic option for anyone dealing with size issues or looking to experiment with extra-large dildos.
Going Beyond Standard Strap-Ons
If you need something extra kinky, you could try these types of strap-on dildos:
- Huge strap-on dildos – Extra-large strap-on dildos are designed for those who enjoy a more intense sense of fullness and size.

Buyer’s Guide: Find the Perfect Strap-On!
If my rundown of all the different strap-on types just gave you option anxiety, things are about to get a bit more complicated. There are several parts that make up a quality strap-on setup. Trust me, choosing them is like trying to find the recipe for the perfect realistic toy set-up! Let me show you everything that you need to look into before you buy your strap-on dildo:
What Does a Strap-On Do?
If you’re still confused, any wearable sex toy that’s linked to a harness can be classified as a strap-on. As mentioned, the differences are mainly about the attachment mechanism, the type of dildo and the way you use it. In most cases, you’ll be able to get a strap-on kit that gives you a dildo and an adjustable harness. Alternatively, you can only buy the harness. Then, you can assemble your own strap-on with the dildo you like the best. You can also opt for a strapless strap-on dildo. This is a neat option if you don’t want to wear a harness and you want to get your hole serviced while you’re penetrating your partner.
Either way, these dildos are fantastic tools for masturbation, strap-on blowjobs and penetrative sex. Everyone with a vagina can use them to step into a more dominant role and use a thick hard johnson like it’s their greatest asset. But, remember that, while strap-ons are some of the most popular lesbian toys, they are also the best thing to get for femdom, pegging, anal play and other activities with your male partner.
Strap-On Setup
When it comes to strap-on basics, you first need to look into the type of system you’re buying. That includes the holy trinity:
- Harness
- Attachment method
- Dildo
Granted, an ill-fitting strap-on won’t cause the world to end. Yet, getting it right from the get-go will save you a lot of trouble in the long run.
Harness
Strap-on harnesses are made using various different materials such as leather or cotton. The most important tip here is to pick a durable yet comfy harness. That way, you’ll be able to stay strapped in for a long time during your bedroom rodeos. Plus, it will ensure that the dildo will never fall out. In most cases, you’ll get to choose between these types of harnesses:
- Two-strap harness – This harness is similar to a thong. It uses one adjustable strap to attach around your waist while the other one is tightened between your thighs. This is the most basic type, but some people avoid it because the second strap can cause friction and an unstable fit.
- Three-strap harness – Instead of using one strap that goes between your legs, this type utilizes two straps that hook up to your thighs. This type of setup is much sturdier and more reliable.
- Underwear type – This type doesn’t come with straps. Instead, it resembles regular underwear. It can look like a pair of panties, sexy lingerie or classic male briefs. It’s the most practical harness out there, but the drawback is that it encloses your genitals.
O-Ring vs. Hole
Now, how do you actually secure a dildo to your strap-on harness? Well, this is one of the most important aspects of a strap-on system that many people neglect. A harness will typically give you a hole for the dildo right near the crotch. You can attach the base of the dildo to the hole to secure it in place.
It’s not the most effective method since it can make the dildo flop around. If you have too much movement, you won’t be able to use your dildo for deep G-spot massage, prostate play or any other sex act based on precise movements. In that case, a harness with an O-ring will be a much better choice.
Typically, an O-ring design will give you a metal or rubber loop attached to the crotch. You can slide the dildo through it or attach it to the base. That way, the O-ring will get rid of any wobbling or movement. Plus, it will feel the most realistic during penetration.
Unlike a harness set-up with a hole, the dildo will not be able to pop out or rip through the fabric. Also, if the O-ring is stretchy, you can use the same harness with several different dildos. If you’re having doubts, an O-ring design is definitely the way to go for all kinds of softcore and hardcore debauchery. Furthermore, there are several other configurations to consider, including strapless strapon dildos, single-piece latex dildo harnesses and vacuum lock dildos.
Which Dildo Should You Get?
Look, I know that not everyone wants to strap on an enormous extra-large dildo to their waist right away. If a large strap-on dildo is intimidating for you and your partner, you don’t have to go that route. You’ll have to think about the dildo you prefer and find the best type to give you exactly what you crave. If you don’t know anything about dildos, you can check out some of my previous in-depth guides to learn all about them. But, when it comes to strap-ons, here’s what you should consider:
- Classic dildo – This is the most common type of dildo you’ll see in strap-on setups. You’ll get a long straight or curved shaft that’s great for all kinds of real-feel oral, vaginal or anal fun.
- Tapered dildo – Some classic dildos can have a tapered shape that gets wider near the base. This is a clever choice for everyone who prefers a wider girth and likes to get stretched.
- Non-phallic dildo – If you’re not into it, you don’t have to get a realistic strap-on dildo. Non-phallic dildos will give you an insertable shaft that doesn’t resemble a real penis.
- Anal dildo – A dedicated anal strap-on can work wonders for all kinds of rear-end acrobatics. Some of these dildos are extra-thick, while others have unique textures to pleasure your partner’s rectum with just the right amount of pressure.
- G-spot or prostate dildo – These dildos are specifically designed to pleasure your partner’s G-spot or P-spot. They are often curved and have bulbous heads that allow for targeted stimulation and super fast squirting orgasms!
Harness Materials
By now, you probably know that things can get a bit messy during more intense play, whether that’s from lube or other fluids. That’s why choosing a practical harness really matters. One tip from experience: don’t pick a material just because it looks good. I started with a leather harness because it seemed stylish, but quickly realized it’s much harder to clean and maintain compared to other options.
Aside from leather, you can choose from a variety of other materials. That includes synthetics, nylons, plastics, cloths, as well as rubber, PVC or latex materials. In most cases, I’d recommend you avoid leather, rubber or any synthetic imitations and go with natural materials.
A cotton or cloth harness will be the most adaptable to your body and it will feel stretchy and comfortable. It will also last long and feel good on your skin. Another decent choice is natural latex, but use it only if you’re not allergic. Bonus tip: if you’re buying a harness with two or three straps, make sure they’re wide and soft. This will eliminate any chafing issues and will create a much firmer fit.
Dildo Materials
Sex toy materials can always cause some confusion if you’re buying your first toy. But, there’s really nothing to worry about if you make the right choices. The trick here is to find a medical-grade, body-safe material with hypoallergenic properties.
When in Doubt, Always Go With Silicone
The easiest choice is silicone. It’s 100% skin-friendly and it doesn’t absorb nasty germs. What’s more, this material will last forever and it’s incredibly easy to clean. Best of all, it will provide hyper-realistic sensations and a smooth, soft texture that feels fantastic during penetration.
Some of the other materials you could encounter are TPE, rubber, latex or jelly. I’d advise you to skip all the jelly or rubber options out there. They are highly porous and they’re unsafe for the skin. If you’re keen on getting a super-floppy rubber dildo, just make sure it’s phthalate-free and learn everything you can about handling it.
What Are the Alternatives?
TPE is a softer alternative to silicone. Many people love this material, but what you need to know is that it’s slightly porous. While you can use it safely, you’ll need to swap your toy with a new one after 3 to 6 months.
And what if you want it harder? Well, if you want to get a probe dildo, G-spot massager or prostate stimulator, ABS plastic is the ideal option. Just like silicone, it’s body-friendly and non-porous, but it will give you a tougher texture to play with. This can create intense pressure and an unusually pleasant sensation as your partner’s body tightens up around it!
How to Measure Yourself and Your Dildo
Frankly, you won’t get anywhere if your harness doesn’t fit properly. In the worst case, your dildo could be too small or too big to please your partner. That’s why it’s essential to take some measurements first.
What you’re looking for here is a snug fit around your waist. It shouldn’t feel too loose or tight. To get it right the first time, you should measure your waist. Then, use that measurement to determine the size of your harness. Keep in mind that most strap-on harnesses are adjustable, meaning that even if the harness you find isn’t a perfect match for your measurements, you’ll be able to tighten or loosen it to find the ideal fit.
Is Bigger Better?
When it comes to the size of your dildo, you will need to make this decision with your partner. If you’re going to use your dildo only to penetrate your partner, then go with a size that suits them. If you want a toy that both of you can use, you may need to come to a compromise.
Either way, my tip here is to start with a medium size. Approximately 5 to 7 inches will be just enough for first-timers and you can always get a bigger size later. What’s more, if a medium size is too big and you need something smaller than 5 inches, you can always choose small strap-on dildos.
Also, don’t forget to inspect the girth of the dildo and see if it’s thick enough for you. Of course, this will also depend on your and your partner’s preferences. You can pick a short and thick dildo, a long and curved one or an extra-long and extra-thick fake dong. Just remember to know your limits. If you get a dildo that’s too big, it could cause some discomfort. If it’s too small, it might not be enough to push your partner over the edge.
Special Features
Most strap-on dildo types come in vibrating and non-vibrating variants. However, there are a lot of other features that you could use to experiment even further.
If you’re getting a vibrating strap-on dildo, my best tip would be to inspect the specifications. So look into the power features, vibration modes and remote control options. The same goes for all the other features I’ve described. If you want an ejaculating dildo, a thrusting dildo or a 2-in-1 stimulator, read up on the details and see if those features are something you truly need.
Personally, I enjoy the added intensity that vibrating toys can bring, especially when the sensations are more pronounced. That said, preferences vary a lot. You might find that other features suit you better, such as automatic thrusting, dual-function designs, or textured shapes that create a different kind of stimulation.
What to Avoid
- Stay away from no-name brands and cheap strap-on harnesses.
- Avoid leather and other porous materials for your strap-on setup.
- Use a jelly or rubber dildo only if you absolutely have to and if you can find a healthy phthalate-free variant. But for the most realistic experience, I’d recommend you stick to silicone.
Tips on Using, Cleaning and Storing Your Strap-On Dildos
Whether you’re going to wear this toy to dominate your partner or you want to be on the receiving end and take a strap-on dildo for a wild ride, you’ll need to memorize several key tips before you strap in.
Safety First
Strap-ons are relatively safe toys, but you could encounter some problems if the harness feels too tight or too loose. A loose harness will wobble around. Conversely, a tight fit could cause some discomfort or chafing. To get it right the first time, simply slip into it like a pair of panties. Then, make sure the straps are lying flat and tighten them.
Also, you need to know that using this toy like you were actually born with a penis will take some practice. For me, I had to try strap-on sex several times before I got used to all the thrusting movements and positions. The best tip I can give you is to first put on your fake wang and wear it before you have sex. Trust me, walking around with a strap-on attached to you will feel awesome and it will help you get used to your new dong. The trick is to make your dildo feel like it’s an extension of you and genuinely get into the role of a penis-wielding partner.
After that, you could also start with some basic sex positions to get used to the feeling of penetrating your partner or taking a strap-on dildo deep inside you.
Strap-On Dildo Mistakes to Avoid
- Skipping the warm-up for pegging – anal pegging without warm-up causes discomfort or pain. Always use butt plugs to train beforehand and never skip extensive lubrication.
- Using silicone lube on a silicone dildo – permanently degrades the material. Water-based lube only for all silicone strap-on dildos.
- Not checking harness compatibility before buying a dildo separately – O-ring size, base diameter and harness hole diameter must all match. Check compatibility specs before purchasing dildo and harness separately.
- Skipping practice with the harness before sex – wearing and walking around in your harness before your first session significantly improves thrusting mechanics and confidence. Read the Safety First section above.
- Choosing a harness material based on looks, not practicality – leather looks great but is very difficult to clean and can harbor bacteria. Cotton and fabric harnesses are the most hygienic and comfortable.
- Swapping between anal and vaginal use without a new condom – always use a fresh condom when switching. Never transfer from anal to vaginal without cleaning thoroughly or changing protection.
Use Your Strap-On Dildo For:
- Bend gender and dominance roles – Anything is possible with your new strap-on dildo!
- Mutual pleasure – Since the dildo will rub against your clit during penetration, you’ll also be able to orgasm while pleasuring your partner. Better yet, you can use a bullet vibrator inside your strap-on harness to get off even harder!
- DP – You can experiment with a DP strap-on or use another toy like a butt plug for fully immersive double penetration adventures!
- Lesbian sex – Lesbian sex becomes a whole other story once you strap in. You’ll suddenly take on a new and much more dominant role that will work wonders for all sorts of oral, vaginal and anal fun!
- Pegging – Dominating a man with a huge strap-on dildo is one of the hottest things I’ve ever tried! Just make sure your partner is into it first – communication before pegging is essential!
- BDSM – strap-ons are the ideal tools for roleplay, femdom, chastity play and many other BDSM fetishes that will bring out your darkest side.
- Use hollow strap-ons as an erection aid – If your male partner has problems maintaining an erection or if you’ve always wanted him to get bigger, a hollow strap-on dildo will improve his erection while giving him a size boost.
Pegging Supplies and Strap-Ons for Short Girls
One of the essential tips is to always use lube to eliminate any kind of friction during penetration. Here, it’s important to use only the correct type of lube that won’t damage the material of your dildo. For example, if you use a silicone dildo, the best option is water-based lube.
What’s more, I have to point out that strap-on play can get a bit messy if your partner is taller than you. If you end up having trouble navigating sex with your new strap-on, stick to the most practical positions like doggy style. Then, use pillows to prop yourself up to get the right angle. Alternatively, you can turn your partner around with their ass up and their legs behind their head. Then, kneel down on some pillows to line up the height perfectly and bang away!
Cleaning and Storage
Remember what I said about all kinds of fluids – lube and natural moisture – end up on your harness during use. This is exactly why you should never forget to clean your toy during your post-orgasm haze!
First, remove the dildo from the harness. Then, soak your dildo in warm water or run it under the tap. You can use a mild soap to remove any residue from it and keep it squeaky clean.
Additionally, if you get a machine-washable harness, you can use mild detergent and put your harness in the washing machine to clean it thoroughly. Why not throw your bras in to kill two birds with one stone? Alternatively, you can soak it in the sink and scrub it with detergent. However, if your harness materials are not machine-washable, the cleaning method may vary and I’d advise you to stick to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Finally, you’ll also need to air dry your harness and dildo. So leave them out for a couple of hours and store them only when they’re fully dry. My tip here would be to store your harness and dildo separately to keep the materials safe.
Strap-On Dildos Industry Overview
When did we use strap-ons first and what should we expect in the future? Well, strap-on toys are actually much older than you think!
Who Invented Strap-On Sex?
Strap-on sex exploded in the late 1990s with “Bend Over Boyfriend”, a set of instructional videos about pegging and using strap-ons for heterosexual couples. However, dildos have existed for thousands of years.
In ancient times, people used them to worship the fertility gods and take part in bizarre sex rituals. The oldest known strap-on dildo dates back to 10,000 BC. It resembles a big double baton with a pee-pee hole inside. Several early dildos were also discovered in ancient Japan and they were made of wood and leather.
Also, many murals at Pompeii and Athens depict women using early strap-ons on men, which shows us that strap-on sex was celebrated way back in ancient Italy and Greece! This gives us an idea of how long we’ve been using strap-on dildos and definitely makes them one of the oldest and most popular sex toys! So why not follow in the footsteps of our ancient ancestors?
The Future of Strap-On Dildos
Every day, the sex toy masterminds keep coming up with new inventions to literally rock our worlds. Of course, strap-ons have evolved quite a lot from their early variants made of wood or jade. Oh, I’m so glad that we don’t have to use crudely crafted toys made of natural materials today!
Right now, strap-on dildos are at the peak of their evolution and the innovation is not slowing down. Currently, you can find several standout brands that make fantastic strap-ons with original designs. Some of the biggest names for strap-ons and harnesses right now include Lovehoney, Tantus, King Cock, Happy Rabbit, Pegasus, SpareParts, Fun Factory, Doc Johnson, Tracey Cox, etc. Some strap-on toys made by those brands will give you some of the newest technologies. That includes vacuum lock harnesses or remote-controlled vibrators. One of the newest examples is a smart strap-on made by Ambrosia Vibe. It automatically senses the dildo’s motions and transfers them to the wearer in the form of vibration. That way, the vibrations can make the wearer “feel” the sexual pleasure that a real penis would get.
Of course, no one knows what’s going to happen in the future and whether or not we’ll get enhanced strap-on dildos that feel even more like a real sexual experience and offer more control along with unique VR or AI features. For now, it’s time to get your big and bold strap-on dildo! So strap in and join the fun!
FAQ
Not at all! Tons of straight men enjoy getting penetrated anally by a woman wearing strap-on dildos. Bottoming does not require a man to be gay and lots of men like pegging because it allows them to explore role reversal along with tons of intense ass or prostate play.
Well, the trick is to take things slowly at first. If you’re a total beginner, I’d recommend you buy a small strap-on dildo. You might even need to train your booty beforehand with smaller anal toys such as butt plugs. Remember, anal sex can cause some pain, but only if you are untrained and if you don’t use enough lube. Also, you will need to learn how to clean yourself out properly if you want to avoid making a mess. After that, just remember to take it easy and experiment. Bonus tip: you should try rimming or fingering to get your booty ready for bigger things.
Yes, but only if your harness allows it. If your harness comes with a permanently attached dildo, you won’t be able to switch it out. However, if you get an O-ring harness with a stretchy ring, the chances are that you’ll be able to put any kind of dildo through it.
If you or your partner are uncomfortable with the look of a real penis, the best thing you can do is to get a non-phallic strap-on. This dildo will not resemble a penis, but it will still give you a smooth shaft to play with.
Yes, absolutely. Wearing a strap-on can create a strong sense of confidence and control, which many people find highly arousing. If you’re looking for more direct physical stimulation as well, options like double-ended or vibrating strap-ons can enhance the experience and make it even more pleasurable.
If you want to switch toys with your partner, you should always use a condom. This applies to vaginal and anal sex. Also, if you want to switch from vaginal to anal sex, make sure to always use a new condom. This will eliminate any health risks that come from sharing toys or switching holes.
Using a strap-on requires dedication and training. If your partner feels some discomfort, you can try to switch up your positions and balance your heights to see what feels the most pleasurable. If the harness itself feels unpleasant on your skin, try to readjust it to make it fit comfortably.
Strap-on sex shouldn’t cause any discomfort if you know what you’re doing and while it’s okay to feel a little pain at first, remember that you’ll need some time to get used to your strap-on.
Clean the dildo and harness separately after every session. For silicone dildos, wash with mild soap and warm water; silicone can be boiled briefly for full sterilization if it has no motor. For TPE dildos, soap and warm water only – they cannot be sterilized; replace every 3-6 months with regular use. For the harness: fabric and cotton harnesses are usually machine-washable on a gentle cycle – check the label. Leather and nylon harnesses cannot be machine-washed; wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Never share toys between anal and vaginal use without cleaning or changing to a new condom. Air-dry everything completely before storing, and keep the dildo and harness in separate pouches.
Start with a medium-sized, soft silicone dildo (5-6 inches) paired with a three-strap cotton harness. From our list, the Doc Johnson Silicone Hollow Kit is ideal for beginners – it includes three differently-sized dildos, a stretchy comfortable harness and bulbous heads that make insertion more intuitive. The Blush Neo Elite is also excellent for beginners exploring anal pegging specifically, as it slides in easily at an ideal size and girth. Avoid extra-large or vibrating strap-ons as your first set – build familiarity with size and thrusting mechanics before adding complexity.
Absolutely – and strap-ons are some of the most important toys for gender-affirming play. Most harnesses are designed to be gender-neutral and fit a wide range of body types and configurations. The underwear-style harness in particular (see Types section) is often preferred for gender-affirming use as it resembles everyday underwear. From our list, the Doc Johnson Silicone Hollow Kit (described as ‘unisex’ in the product specs) and the VixSkin Vixen Maverick (compatible with all strap types, water-resistant) are both well-suited for trans and non-binary users. Look for harnesses that clearly state inclusive sizing and adjustable straps.
For anal pegging specifically, start smaller than you would for vaginal use – the rectum is more sensitive and requires more warm-up. 4-5 inches is a practical starting point for pegging beginners. Work up gradually, using butt plugs to train beforehand if needed. Always use significantly more lube than you think is necessary for anal pegging, and use a dildo with a smooth or slightly tapered head for easier insertion. From our list, the Blush Neo Elite is specifically praised for anal use at its ideal size and girth.
