I have wanted a Velv’Or ring for a very long time. They’ve been around forever, but for whatever reason I just never pulled the trigger to pick one up. Why? I’m not super sure. I think my main turnoff was that they are plastic 3D printed cock rings but still command a premium price. Having picked up some rings from LeLuv which are decidedly lower quality rings, figured this was a cash grab. Shipping from Europe further raised the price, too.

Have a look for summary of the large Esculpta MUSE tri-band set for a little bit more intro and history.
As I mentioned in my other review, I know my size super well. I took a small gamble on this medium size because sometimes ergonomic rings offer a bit more space thanks to the forward curve. Since a 1.75" adornment will still work for me (and produce a seriously intense erection), I figured it may be fun to get a set in the next size down just for the experience a tight fitting stackable ring that has a bit more width to it. Similar to the “large” size, these fit pretty true to a 1.75" nominal diameter ring.
The Esculpta brand has been around for many years. Touted as an ultimate luxury in cock rings, they started their journey in the adornment space by offering a unique rubber tube-based design flanked with jewelry-style ends. Their asking price was always a bit high, and I found that I could get a similar design by modifying bracelets available cheaply on ebay example1 example1 example2 with the benefit of being a bit more my style. Since then, Esculpta has bounced into the “ergonomic” market by offering the uniquely shaped Muse series of stacked rings. Well then… that’s new! I forgot all about them for a long while but had some time to browse adornments lately so I snatched a set up once I saw that they were buy-two-get-one free.
I came across fckme a few months back while hanging out on reddit and finally posted a review of the Triple Fat Boy ring that I picked up as soon as I saw the shop. Much to my delight, Claude reached out thanking me for the review and we quickly struck up a conversation about the merits of adornments. I was delighted to learn that the fckme rings are hand-finished/ground because he is truly passionate about giving your manhood all the attention that it should have. Claude offered to send a few additional rings along since I appreciated the Triple Fat Boy (and our conversation!) so much.

I don’t often wear glans rings, but when I do, I want to feel them all day long tugging on the end of my penis. The best way to do this is to add a bit of weight. My favorite in this arena is the eminently stackable HMO Heavy Donut, so as soon as I found the HMO Head Master Ring, you know I didn’t hesitate to buy!
Unlike the Heavy Donut, these no-frills weights feature only a brushed finish and slightly radiused corners. They are utilitarian in nature and are clearly design for the purpose not of adorning your manhood, but weighing it down.
One of my absolute favorite glans ring is the Hardman Outfitters Heavy Donut. These things are great - stack them as much as you’d like to achieve the weighty pull the day is asking for. But those that have read through the review know that these things clack together when you’ve stacked several. I tried a few things to prevent them from doing so - from pulling them tight along the shaft to even trying to 3D print custom buffers. But why go through all that trouble when you can buy these cheap little rings from any generic Chinese retailer?
OK… so I literally have hundreds of rings. I am always on the prowl looking for something new or unique to try, so I’m sure you could imagine my delight when I discovered Night Seeds during conversation over on r/CockRingTalk. These adornments promise a bit of a different experience with their cotton candy-like color and firm “U” shape. Of course I had to try them out!
I was immediately thrown off while shopping when I realized that there are no “sizes” of these rings. Eschewing traditional sizes, Night Seeds has opted to make their ring in a variety of firmness for optimal fitment. They recommend the flex for >14.1cm circumference, the firm for 12.1 to 14.1cm, and the hard for <12.1cm. This translates into diameters of 44.8mm (~1.75") and 38.5mm (~1.5") for cutoffs. This straddles the sizes we’ve come to be used to when shopping for cock rings or shaft rings, so one would think that it’s possible to wear one as a cock ring. Nope - there’s no way in hell. As the owner of a decidedly average package, there’s no way testicles and penis are fitting through even the most flexible offering without inviting real danger. Indeed, if you pay close attention to their site, while they never say it is a shaft ring, they do show a few images of expected diameters in both metric and imperial units that are reasonable for a penis shaft. So anyhow, it’s a shaft ring… in case you’re confused!
I’ve had a few adornments sitting down in inventory for a long time that I haven’t tried on or gotten an impression of. This is one of them. This one came from a new up-and-coming shop, fckme. Being a unique design, this one immediately caught my attention and found its way into my shopping cart - and there are other neat designs offered by this manufacturer worth looking at later!
