Chastity Cage Guide: Use, Materials & Tips
Whether you're curious or ready to commit, wearing a chastity cage can be an exciting and meaningful part of your intimacy journey.
From short-term use to long-term chastity play, there’s a lot to consider — materials, comfort, safety, and of course, experience. In this guide, we’ll walk you through everything you need to know before you lock in.
What Is a Chastity Cage?
A chastity cage is a device worn around the penis to prevent erections or stimulation. It’s used in both BDSM and solo practice for control, discipline, or erotic teasing. Some wearers use it for extended periods, while others explore it casually.
The setup usually includes:
- A main cage that encloses the shaft
- A base ring that fits behind the scrotum
- A locking mechanism — padlock or built-in lock

Material Comparison: Silicone vs Metal Cages
Choosing the right material is essential for comfort and hygiene. Here's a breakdown of the two most common options:
Silicone Chastity Cages
- Lightweight and flexible
- Best for beginners
- Less noticeable under clothing
Metal Chastity Cages (Stainless Steel)
- Durable and secure
- Heavier but feels solid
- Often more hygienic with better airflow
Regardless of type, proper cleaning and lubrication are key. Explore our full Lubricants Collection to reduce friction and enhance wearability.
How to Wear a Chastity Cage Safely
Safe Use Tips
Comfort and circulation matter. Whether you’re trying long term wear or a short term tease, follow these rules:
- Always begin with a clean device — regular cleaning is a must
- Use lube around the base ring to avoid skin irritation
- Check blood flow regularly to ensure no numbness or swelling
- Start slow: just a few hours a day for the first week
Consider adding a delay spray to minimize stimulation and reduce temptation during play.
Design Features That Matter
Not all cages are created equal. Good cage design should include:
- Vent holes for airflow and cleaning access
- Ergonomic base ring that doesn't pinch
- A secure but easy-to-use locking mechanism
Need something discreet for daily wear? Look for lightweight models with smooth edges that sit well under clothing.
Pro tip: If you’ve ever used cock rings, the adjustment to chastity cages might feel familiar — just more restrictive.
Chastity Cage Experience: What Users Say
Here’s what others have said about their experience with chastity:
- “The feeling of control and submission was a huge turn-on.”
