Advise on Cock Rings

[Kisa]

Hey I'm in the market for some cock rings for the hubby, but all of the places I go to for my usual sex toys don't carry cock rings. So I'm looking for some recommendations to pick up some rings.

Body safe materials only please, and something that has some give (or at least an option to adjust the ring) are a must. My husband is on the girthy side, not to any extremes, but more girthy than the guys I've been with before.

I'm not looking for anything that does anything fancy like buzzing the clit, I'm just looking for a ring to slip on.

Oxballs has a variety of silicone cockrings at very reasonable prices: http://shop.oxballs.com/SILICONE-cockrings_c104.htm

Note that the site caters to the gay fetish crowd so the site is full of very raunchy gay porn.

Kisa, I have to echo Tempest's advice to muddle through and buy Oxballs. In fact, for your hubby, I'll make a recommendation: the best starter cock ring Oxballs sells is the Oxballs GRUNT Cockring, and I have written a review, since I happily own one.

Also a good starter cock ring is the tantus c-ring. It's silicone, reasonably stretchy ( I can fit it over my hand and around my wrist) and it's cheap with no frills. That was my boyfriend's and I's first cock ring and we still use it sometimes when we don't wanna use something fancy and vibrating

Actually I reccomend getting an adjustable one, they are kind of like a bolo tie lol, they are the easiest the safest to use. They are generally latex or silicone with a plastic or metal bead to adjust the size, just slip on then tighten.
Super easy and usually cheap.

I also recommend the Tantus c-ring. It's comfortable, affordable, pure silicone (so you can boil it with your Bad Dragon toys if you want to) and comes in a couple different colors.

Thanks for all of the recommendations, you guys. I'll have to have my husband look over these since he'll be the one wearing these, but we're off to a good start. I wonder why c-rings aren't more popular in the mainstream market.

I do have one question though: my husband and I bought a TPR jelly c-ring along time ago, just to try it out once to see if we actually like c-rings or just the idea of it. I liked the c-ring, but my husband actually had a hard time trying to prevent premature ejacilation. My husband normally has great stamina, but the c-ring cut the session shorter because it made my husband more sensitive. I've always heard c-rings was supposed to delay orgasms, so maybe it was the novelty of a new sensation that did it . Like I said though, we only used that TPR ring once and haven't touched one since, so we haven't been really testing c-rings out much. But have any guys here also struggled with stamina while wearing a c-ring? I can't imagine we weren't using it right.

Rings are sometimes used to partially cut off circulation in the theory that the penis will stay hard longer. They're more for erectile dysfunction. To work for orgasm denial (really ejaculation denial), it would have to be too tight to be healthy.

If it's tightening the skin the guy will likely ejaculate sooner.

Yeah, he says the partial cut off of blood made things more sensitive for him. Anything that squeezes that area really tests his limits. When I'm about to have an orgasm, buy vagina does a sort of "flutter contraction," that squeezes him repeatedly, and he struggles with that a bit because I guess I get tighter there. Good news for him though, because he'll always know if I'm faking, because I can't replicate that at all if I'm not having an orgasm.

The ring makes your erection harder, thus making everything feel more intense, which would lead to a faster orgasm for most people, I'd wager. If you're looking for something to delay orgasm, I don't think a cock ring is what you want.

I'm not in it for the delay of the orgasm, more just because I like how it feels when he wears one. The struggle to delay orgasm is the one draw back that my husband doesn't like, and I wasn't sure if that was a normal thing since some companies market cock rings as a way to delay orgasm for the man.

They actually take away sensation from me, which is why I use them from time to time.

I didn't know that, so I looked at the ad copy for the Tantus cock ring, and it does indeed talk about prolonging orgasm for some men. That hasn't been my experience, but everybody's different.
