Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag Review

Personal Experience

Baby’s First Bit Gag!

I’ve tried solid ball gags, breathable ball gags, o-ring gags, and even a dildo gag in my time as a sex toy reviewer. But the Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag was my first ever bit gag! I was super excited to try it out as I like the idea of a ‘soft bit gag’. I had a feeling that I might like something to bite down on when things get a little intense in the bedroom… or sex dungeon, or whatever…

Will it Stand the Test of Time?

Design

The Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag has a very sleek and sexy design. While I'm not personally a bit fan of the red color, I can't deny that it looks very kinky and quite luxurious. I like that the metal hardware is black and blends in well with the strap itself. I have a soft spot for bondage gear with lockable buckles since it's such an easy way to intensify your play time! I will say that the bit itself is quite large, especially in the beginning when the filling hasn't been "broken in" yet.

Ease of Use

The Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag is incredibly easy to use. Simply pop the bit in your mouth, bite down, and secure the strap around your head with the buckle. Again, because the bit is so large and the foam is quite firm in the beginning, it can be difficult to wear for longer periods of time at first. Once it's "broken in", though, it should be just fine!

Quality

I think the Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag is a great quality bit gag! It's an amazing alternative for those who try to avoid using genuine leather. However, for those don't mind using real leather, this may honestly be a better option if you're looking for a really long-lasting gag. Since the seam of the bit is on the side you're biting into, I can imagine a lot of saliva going in there. I can also see the PU leather deteriorating quite easily over time from continuous bite marks. While I think it's well made, I would probably opt for a real leather soft bit gag for long-term use.

Price

I think the price of the Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag is really good for something of this quality! You get a sleek and kinky design, a large bit gag to bite down on, and a lockable buckle to amp things up a bit. There's quite a bit of value of money here.

Performance

The Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag was definitely larger than I was expecting, and I did feel humbled when I tried it the first time. My jaw was pretty sore! I think it's comfortable to bite down on even though it was a bit firm in the beginning.

Packaging

As with most other packaging from Sportsheets, this bit gag came in a not-so-subtle box with an image of the product modelled on the front. While this doesn't scream discretion, I have come to appreciate that this packaging is still quite classy and more informative than vulgar. One thing I could have used was a storage bag. The bit itself just arrived in the box all naked (no plastic or cloth bag protecting it from the cardboard).

Materials and care

Since the Sportsheets Saffron Soft Bit Gag is made primarily of PU faux leather, it should be wiped down with a damp cloth. I recommend being thorough with this since a lot of saliva can end up in that seam in the side of the bit. The bit is filled with polypropylene fiber which is what makes this a 'soft bit gag'. This filling does feel a bit firm in the beginning so keep in mind that you might need to break it in properly.
