Why I Chose It
“I think these are a fantastic pair of nipple clamps with a super cute design! I was seriously impressed with how well they stay put during sex and even with some extra tugging. The tiered chain turns them into a lovely sexy accessory and just calls out to be tugged on!”
I can’t lie to you, I was eyeing these Entice nipple clamps for quite some time. But, our tester Isabelle got there first, and after reading her review, I’m jealous! They have two gorgeous rose gold chains connecting them that drape across your chest like body jewelry. Isabelle can confirm that “they feel pretty sexy to wear. I also love that the chain bounces around a little with movement“.
The clamps themselves are also nicely comfortable to wear, thanks to the rubber-tipped ends. Our tester had only tried tweezer-style clamps before, so was a bit intimidated by the crocodile clamps. However, there was no need for concern — “they are SO easy to put on! I love that you only need one hand on the clamps and they open up quite wide… I like to wear them on the tightest setting, and although they aren’t super tight, the intensity does build“. Of course, you can adjust them as much as you want to create your perfect level of pinch, and then simply squeeze the clamps to open them up and put them on. I love how approachable these types of clamps are — they’re ideal for all experience levels.

Specifications
Why I Chose It
For a clamp beginner, I think that tweezer-style clamps are 100% the way to go. That’s why these nipple clamps with chains from the Fifty Shades of Grey collection are my ideal beginner-friendly pick!
Our tester Kasia found them to be almost perfect for her needs: “the adjustable feature makes them feel comfortable… and the chain is such a great idea. The weight adds a more intense stimulation during movement, but it’s not too overwhelming“. Adding a little weight to your clamps can really amp your nipple stimulation and create fantastic sensations, but beginners are often intimidated by really heavy clamps, so the slight weight of the beads and chain here make them very approachable.
Even though she found them a little tricky to put on at first (these need to adjusted while on your body), she also appreciated how well these clamps stayed on her body, even when they weren’t super tight. The high-quality materials and the silicone tips help with this, by providing a little extra grip as well as cushioning. However, she did note that “they fell a few times when I was playing with the chain… so I wouldn’t recommend them for very experienced users who love intense pulling or pinching“. However, for her, it didn’t matter too much, because “the design is so classy and sexy, I just feel great wearing them” — if you’re looking for a more decorative clamp rather than an intense experience, I think these are a great, affordable option.

Why I Chose It
“When I first tried on the Sportsheets Saffron Nipple to Clit Set, I was mesmerized by the look of it. It was SO sexy! Something about how the matte black chains dangled from each point“.
Adding a clit clamp to your nipple clamps with chains is one way to instantly take things to the next level, sensation-wise. This all-in-one set from Sportsheets was a favorite of our tester Cassie, who loved how it looked and felt to wear. Unlike most other clit and nipple clamp combos, this set comes with a detachable neck chain that Cassie though “added an unexpectedly aesthetic touch to the whole product and made it wearable while walking and moving around“. Since the nipple and clit stimulation that this set provides can be such a great foreplay idea, I love that this set gives the opportunity to wear it as a sexy outfit too!
Having tried out other nipple clamps before, she found that “the crocodile nipple clamps… were super easy to use and adjust. Despite being quite beginner-friendly, I thought they delivered quite the pinch! Out of all the nipple clamps I own, these are the easiest to put on“. However, she wasn’t such a fan of the tweezer-style clit clamp — even though it felt nice and stayed in place when walking around, she found that “cue all the light tugging and pulling and the clit clamp gave up“. Luckily, the O-ring in the center actually opens up, meaning that you can easily add and swap out accessories as you please! Cassie told us that she could picture swapping out the tweezer clamp to a more traditional clit clamp style in the future for more intense sessions.

- ✅ Clamps and collar are adjustable
- ✅ Simple, cushioned clamps
Cons
- ❌ Cleaning requires more effort

Specifications
Why I Chose It
One of my personal favorite variations on the nipple clamps with chains formula is to add a collar to the mix. As our tester Rae told us, “it can be nice to put on a collar at the start of a scene to get into a submissive headspace”, but I also love that having them attached together can introduce some fun tugging to the mix. As you move your head, this will pull the chains slightly, increasing the pressure and intensity.
Rae enjoyed the tweezer-style clamps, since they were “really easy to adjust and have black plastic cushioning at the end which makes them really comfortable to wear“. So, you can look hardcore whilst still enjoying a comfy clamp!
It’s also good to note that the collar has a wide range of adjustability — not something you see with every collar! Rae really appreciated this: “I’m a larger woman and have tried toys in the past that are too small to do up. This collar would fit a very wide range of people“. I truly hope this kind of body inclusivity is something we start to see more and more in BDSM accessories.
Best with Gag DOMINIX Deluxe Large Breathable Ball Gag With Nipple Clamps

- ✅ Body-safe silicone gag and strap
- ✅ O-rings can be used to attach additional restraints
- ✅ Breathing holes for comfort
- ✅ Adjustable clamps
- ✅ Lockable hook
Cons
- ❌ Gag may be too large for some
- ❌ Chain is not detachable
- ❌ Lock and key are not included
Specifications
Why I Chose It
Another fabulous BDSM-inspired nipple clamp accessory is this ball gag. If a collar doesn’t provide quite enough of that constricted, submissive feeling, then wearing a gag like this can really up the ante.
Our tester Lady Red was a big fan of the chains that connect the gag to the clamps, since “this also can pull the nipples to provide another type of sensation“. She also appreciated the adjustability of the clamps, since she usually prefers more gentle nipple stimulation, so she “kept the clamps loose, but if a person enjoys their nipples being pinched tightly then that option is available“.
I love that the DOMINIX Deluxe gag is breathable, with three holes in the ball to give you that full mouth feeling without the panic of not having breathing room. Plus, Lady Red enjoyed how “the ball is cushy, and when I placed it in my mouth it wasn’t as uncomfortable as I assumed it would be“. If you’re anything like me or Sarah, the idea of wearing a ball gag can be a little intimidating, so I appreciate that they’ve gone the extra mile to make it comfortable. However, I would recommend double-checking the size of the ball and how wide you feel comfortable keeping your mouth open before you buy!

Types of Nipple Clamps with Chains
Like standard nipple clamps, nipple clamps come in a small variety of clip/clamp styles. If you’ve never used this type of toy before, the differences can be confusing, so we’ve written a quick overview for each type!
- Alligator – These clamps generally feature a rubber or silicone tip, and can be easily adjusted using the set screw incorporated into each individual clamp! They provide more “clamp” than tweezer clamps but aren’t quite as intense as clover clamps.
- Tweezer – Perfect for beginners and commonly used for nipple and clit clamps, this type of clamp often offers tipped ends for a better grip. This is important as tweezer clamps tend to offer less “grip” than other types of clamps. They’re adjustable (though not extremely accurate), using a sliding ring to tighten or loosen the clamps on your nipples/clit.
- Clover – For people who’re experienced at nipple play and enjoy pain, clover clamps offer the ultimate experience. Non-adjustable with a vice-grip clamp, these clamps actually tighten the more they’re pulled on!
- Collar – As the name suggests, these are simply a collar with attached nipple clamps on a chain! The collar itself will often have an O-ring or D-ring, allowing your partner to attach additional chains.
- 4-point Grips – Unlike traditional clamps that pinch your nipple from two angles, this type of clamp uses four set screws to pinch your nipple from four points at once!
- With Clit Clamp – These clamps add an additional clamp down below, still offering the two nipple clamps above, with the addition of a clamp for your clitoris below. Some models offer labia clamps instead!
- Weighted – Ideal for solo play (but also useful during partner play), weighted clamps allow your clamps to always “tug” on your bits without requiring an actual tug from yourself or your partner.
- With Ball Gag – If you’d like to get a bit kinkier, why not incorporate a ball gag into your partner play? As the name suggests, these clamps are a collar with attached nipple clamps on a chain on the bottom and a ball gag above the collar!
