BDSM Collars & Leashes - Play with Power and Control
What is a BDSM Collar?
A BDSM collar - sometimes called a bondage or sex collar - can serve many purposes. For some, it's a tangible representation of a submissive's dedication to their dominant partner, akin to a 'collaring' ceremony in the BDSM community. For others, it’s a thrilling addition to bondage play, heightening the sense of restraint and control. Beyond the bedroom, many choose to wear these collars as fashion statements, reflecting their personal style and interests.
Different Types of BDSM Collars
BDSM collars and leashes come in various styles, each serving unique functions and aesthetics within bondage play. At Sinful, we offer a diverse selection to cater to different preferences and levels of experience.
1. Standard Leather Collars
Leather collars are a staple in BDSM, known for their durability and classic appearance. They often feature adjustable straps and D-rings for leash attachment, making them versatile for various bondage scenarios.
A customer favourite within the genre of BDSM leather collars is the obaie Real Leather Classic Collar. This elegant black leather bondage collar is perfect for those looking to explore dominance and submission dynamics. It features a D-ring for attachment to a leash or chain, enhancing your roleplay experiences. Here’s what one satisfied customer wrote about the product:
"Sits well around her neck, nice on its own and together with a leash and a name tag." — Tony, 13th March 2024
2. Posture Collars
Posture collars are designed to restrict neck movement, encouraging the wearer to maintain an upright position. They are typically wider and more rigid, often extending from the chin to the collarbone. If you want to wear a posture collar, we can recommend the Strict Leather Locking Posture Collar. This is a sturdy posture collar that ensures the wearer's head is held high, adding an extra layer of control to your play. Handmade from strong genuine leather, it features a robust tri-ring on the front for attaching restraints.

“As soon as you unpack the product, you can tell it’s good quality. Stays in place. There are a couple of adjustment options on the back where you can attach padlocks, which are not included unfortunately. But simple ones like you use at the gym work just as well. Once in place, it stays in place and does the job. My partner and I have both been able to use the small size. Test it before play so you get an idea of how it feels. The loop on the front allows for plenty of imaginative play.”
3. Collars with Leash Attachments
For those interested in incorporating guidance and control into their sessions, collars with attached leashes are ideal. They facilitate leading and directing a partner, enhancing the power exchange dynamic.
The Fifty Shades of Grey brand has of course made its own version of this type of kink collar. The Fifty Shades of Grey Sweet Anticipation Collar and Lead set features a comfortable, reversible collar paired with a matching lead, offering versatility in your play. The wide collar is adjustable to fit most people and padded for comfort, so nothing will hold you back from prolonging your playful sessions.
Sinful’s customers have given it an overall 5-star rating and one customer wrote the following about the BDSM collar and lead:
"This collar is stunning. Robust and very pretty. I can’t wait to put it on my sub. She’s going to adore it. Great value and excellent service." — Maty, 7th January 2024
4. Metal Collars
Metal bondage collars offer a more intense aesthetic and sensation. They are typically heavier and can symbolise a deeper level of commitment within a BDSM relationship. If you’re looking for a metal bondage collar, we highly recommend the Master Series Combination Lock Slave Collar. This stainless steal collar is both durable and visually striking, perfect for those looking to make a bold statement. The combination lock ensures that your naughty sub follows your every command until you say otherwise.
If you need more convincing, here’s an excerpt of one customer’s 5-star review of the BDSM slave collar:
“Really solid necklace in good quality. No sharp edges and does not pinch the skin in the hinges when putting on and taking off. Feels and looks more robust than what the pictures give justice to and a good weight constantly reminds the wearer that it is on. The O-ring is solid and can be used for everything it is intended for and rattles erotically when the wearer moves. On the whole, very satisfied. But it is a hefty price tag for some chrome steel and a simple clasp. [...]” — Dr. Strangelove, 22. aug. 2021
5. Decorative or Day Collars
These collars are designed to be discreet and stylish, allowing submissives to wear them in public as a symbol of their relationship without drawing unwanted attention. Sinful.co.uk offers a range of stylish day collars, including one of our customer favourites; Maze by Bijoux Indiscrets Tassel Choker Collar.

Here’s one of the many customer reviews you can find on the product page, illustrating the popularity of the fetish collar:
“This was the product I was most excited about getting! Packed in a very nice, stylish little box, and the necklace was quite simple to put on with knobs to push through the holes, especially if someone does it on you. And you can use it in so many different ways: as a necklace, leash or whip! You can even wrap the "whip part" around your hand and tighten for more effect. Really good buy that I do not regret!” — Louise, 16th January 2020
