Vendor: Weredog

This review was heavily requested in multiple ways. It has been over four years that I have reviewed a toy from Weredog and the company has come a long way ever since. Being based in the UK, they are a little bit more approachable than the big US makers for Europeans – at least in pre-Brexit times. So there is great interest in their toys. More generally, a lot of stretch fans are looking for the pop of knots without having to train the second sphincter. While only Dagger is marketed specifically as a plug by Weredog, in my opinion both fall into this category. So, before next Friday the prices will fall for Black Friday, let’s see how these two knotty fellows perform.

Construction

Weredog’s Duster & Dagger both in XL with their Silicone Cane for Size Comparison

For the fear of sounding like a broken record – there are always new people finding this website, so welcome! – all Weredog toys are being made out of platinum silicone. It is the best material for anal toys for three reasons:

  1. Safety: Platinum silicone is 100% body safe. Unlike other materials like rubber of vinyl, it does not emit plasticizers. Its surface is super smooth making it difficult for bacteria to linger.
  2. Handling: Cleaning and sanitizing is easy. Once a toy has been used, throw it into hot or warm soap water, let is soak for a bit, rub with a soft brush or cloth, rinse and spray a sanitizer on it. This makes silicone toy perfect group situation when you want to pass toys from one player to another. The smooth surface also makes taking the toy easier because there is less friction. One drawback has the material: Silicone toys should not be used with silicone lube! The silicone oil inside the lube will first make the surface sticky and then over time disintegrates the toy. So stick to water- or oil-based lubes if you want long term gliding.
  3. Manufacturing: To clear up a myth, high quality silicone toys are not easy to make. On a large scale, especially complex shaped and colored toys are way more difficult to mass manufacture than vinyl or rubber toys. But, silicone is the material which can recreate the finest details and takes on color the easiest. Because of this, it is the best material to turn horny fantasies into realities. Finally, silicone offers the greatest range of possible firmnesses. Currently, the trend for anal toys leans towards soft toys which Weredog follows. Their extra-soft is Shore 00-20 which is really squishy but be careful with creases. Soft equals Shore 00-30, a bit softer than the popular Topped Toys toy and still squishy / flexible. Their medium makes a big jump to Shore 00-50 which is firmer than Bad Dragon’s medium firmness which would convert to Shore 00-45. Finding the right firmness can be a bit tricky, especially when you are new to buying toys. For these toys, the choice is simple: Dagger is only cast in extra-soft and for ergonomic reasons I would recommend the same for Duster if you are not depth-savvy. One drawback of soft silicone is, that is attracts dust very easily – as you can see in my pictures. Washed the toys an hour before taking these pics and well… you see the result.

Duster’s Massive Dull Knot

Both toys come in sizes from Small to XXL. While Dagger starts out at an almost sensible 12.9cm knot circumference – especially considering the material softness, Duster means business at 16.51cm circumference. Dagger taps out at an already big 32.5cm cirmcumference at 26.9cm usable length, Duster reaches an enourmous 37,5cm circ at the same length but 22.6cm head circumference. And here lies the potential ergonomic issue I was referring to when talking about the softness. While Dagger and to some extend Duster are designed to focus the stretch only on the anus, their length of course scales with the diameter. In super-soft this issue is somewhat mitigated by bending and filling the rectum instead of going deeper. But you have to be aware that you at least need capacity training for your rectum if you want to take these big boys. If you buy Duster in soft or even medium, he will bust you second hole open!

Playing with Duster & Dagger

While we are on the topic, let’s start with Duster. His gland is clearly inspired by canine penises but taken to the extremes. The sometimes protruding urethras has been drawn out to a dull cone sitting on top of a plateau split in there sections. The “shaft” has two section. First it is textured with on top and on the sides with wide slightly bulging strains. On the bottoms runs a shallow smooth strain which could be called a ventral groove. The second, shorter part is a straight resting point before the  main event: The knot.

Duster’s Dull Glans and Pre-Knot Shaft

Three massive bulges covering almost the entire shaft except a small ventral groove at the bottom massively extend the diameter! Their tops are flat for maximum knotting experience. With a shaft to knot ratio from over 1:2, Duster has one of the largest diameter increase I have ever felt. The bulges are almost circular so the knotting is intense. Once the apex has been reached, the knot gets sucked into the rectum – if there is enough space next to the shaft. The knot is very slightly textured with shallow veins. But to be frank, they are an optic feature but unnoticeable which is good. Added friction would make this toys almost impossible to take.

Small anatomic technicality: On Weredogs website Duster is marketed as a anthro dog so I guess some design liberties are ok. But from my limited animal knowledge, Duster is more of a fox with three knot bulges. If you like maximum stretch or look for a yiffy experience, go for Dagger. If you look for a really dogging, buy one of the many toys which only has two knot spheres.

Below the knot is a short shaft for resting your strained hole. The base is round, a bit larger than then maximum diameter of the knot and slightly textured with fur texture. A nice detail is a gold colored piercing ring molded into the base. Sadly, Weredog does not suction cups for their toys.

The Golden Piercing in Duster’s Round Base

This makes Duster a bit hard to judge. On the one hand, it is a great toy for experienced players who look for the extreme. The urethra is only for aiming and anchoring the toy, not for opening up the anus. This body part needs to be pre-stretched to open up for the literally flat glans, especially when you buy the toy in a extra-soft. Otherwise instead of forcing the anus open, the toy will be pressed flat. Being loose and open is also the motto for the knot. The pre-knot on the upper shaft part does little for preparing and opening up. Duster’s knot is one of the most extreme I know. The spheres bulge so far outwards, their their apex way outside the shaft. So your anus is fighting an up-curvature battle when opening up. Once the squishy knot pops through the sphincter you are FULL! The addition of the humongous knot to the already mass-rich shaft creates an almost unique volume. Deknotting is an equally intense sensation. The fullness and intense stretch triggers the pushing out reflex intensely so it happens more quickly and maybe a bit more uncontrolled as some might want to. Once the knot (and most likely the shaft) is expelled, there is a sudden and intense feeling of emptiness which is a harsh contrast to the way you felt a few minutes before. Some bottoms are overwhelmed by this, some NEED to be filled again.

Dagger’s Softer Glans

But unleashing the potential without a suction cup is a bit difficult. Especially when playing with the large amount of lubes such a big toy demands, the base easily slides away. This is really an issue when you try to take the knot and adjust your posture to find the position of least resistance. When deknotting, it happened more than once that the bottom unintentionally shot the toy through the playroom. For partner play to base offers too little points where to hold it securely, especially with lubey hands. Twisting it to find that sweet spot of entrance and pressure is almost impossible. Especially the larger Dusters would really benefit from a vac-u-lock hole or at least a suction cup.

Dagger is a different story and truly a plug with all the features – just with a K9 twist. The top is again inspired by a dog’s glans with a pointy tip and dullish plateau. All the lines are flowing and rounded, far from Duster’s almost brutal design. The glans rim is a slight bulge running around the top. Considering the softness of the material, you really have to focus to notice it.

The Knot and Ventral Groove of Dagger

The slightly bulging shaft is smooth except a shallow and rounded ventral groove. After about half the insertable length the knot bulges out of the shaft. It is formed by two slightly elongated half spheres smoothly flowing out of the shaft. While Duster wants to create maximal resistance between the knot and the sphincter, Dagger somewhat tries to seduce the sphincter to open up. But it cannot hide that it is a sudden and steep increase in diameter so you will definitively notice it compared to a smooth plug. The way of least resistance is to push the knot in perpendicular to the ass. For maximum deknotting experience, twist it inside the bottom’s ass and pull it out. Like on every butt plug the is a long neck which smoothly flows into the base. The base is short and wide, yet it fits perfectly between the ass cheeks.

Like Duster, the length scaling with width will inevitably make Dagger a bit of a depth toy when knotting the larger versions. The shaft bends easily so if you have a bit of rectum volume experience that should not be an issue. You also do not feel as full as with Duster’s big volume. Surprisingly, my testees found Dagger quite comfortable to wear over extended periods of time. Due to the ergonomics you will not manage almost days like with classical stretching plugs but longer than with other space filling toys like the SP Acorn.

The Relatively Thin and Small Base of Dagger

For high intensity play, the base is not ideal. Compared to other plugs, it is thin and due to being super-soft extremely floppy, making it hard to grab, pull out and even push because it is hard to exert force precisely, especially with lubey hands. (Vigorous) knot fucking is almost impossible because it is so hard to grab the base. I would had wished for upwards bent fins at the end (like on an SP Egg, Organotoy Sit-Plug or Friendy Toys Snuckle) and most of all, the option for a split-firmness. Just getting the base in Shore 00-50 would drastically improve ergonomics.

Where to buy?

While Weredog has some retailers in the UK, the best way to order a customizable toy is through the manufacturer’s website. Especially with Duster, be sure you get the right firmness and not one the store’s purchases selected for you. Also, with orders from the website, you can get gorgeous limited edition colorations like the sky metro camouflage on my Dagger.

Vendor: Friendly Toy

About 1½ years ago Friendly Toys from Canada entered the scene and I have quickly gotten review requests for their purpose driven designed toys. So I was lucky that they attended Dore Alley where I could get myself both the Wonder and the Snuckle. While I have gotten more review requests for the Wonder, I am starting with the Snuckle because you need toys to train your hole in order to take the Big Boys I am usually reviewing.

Construction

Snuckle is a training plug which is designed to help open the sphincter up to a fist. Unlike other butt plugs which try to open up the sphincter as evenly and gently as possible, Snuckle imitates the anatomy of a folded hand. The dullish, slightly slanted tip tapers steeply on the bottom and more softly and slightly curved inwards towards the maximum apex. This unusual curvature mimics the way the fingers bend and creates a slight ridges like knuckles on a hand. Below the apex, the slope degree changes with the top being steep and the bottom shallow, mimicking the decrease in diameter towards wrist. This is actually a quite ingenious design because the when your anus is trained to a different steepness when pushing in and pulling out thus maximizing the trainings effect. The wrist neck is short yet wide enough for the sphincter comfortably close around it without any stretch. The base is thick and wide for both a good grip during selfplay and to prevent the base form accidentally slipping in.

The Friendly Toys Snuckle

All Friendly Toys are made out of platinum silicone making them 100% body safe and easy to clean. Its super smooth surface facilitates easy insertion – if you stick to water or oil based lubes. Sadly, the silicone oil in silicone lube disintegrates the surface of silicone toys, making them sticky and destroying them over time. So stay away from silicone lube when playing with silicone toys. After play, silicone can be cleaned easily by letting the toy soak in warm soap water, let dry and finally spray sanitizer on the toy.

Besides the health and handling advantage, silicone can easily be colored. At the moment, Friendly Toys offers only solid colors and no patterns like marbles or fades. You can choose between a hot pink, bright orange, slightly greenish yellow, purplish blue, deep teal and classic black. While platinum silicone can come in various firmness degrees, Friendly Toy only uses Shore 00-30 which is quite soft.

Snuckle’s Dull Tip

While Snuckle comes in a wide range of sizes, the toy is clearly targeted at more ambitious players. The smallest size is 18cm circumference  which is thicker than a generous dick. The range ends at a big 34cm circumference where despite being made out of a very soft material, you are starting to enter double small fist territory.

Playing with Snuckle

Snuckles is what I call a purpose designed toy. It has little frills (more about that below) and has been designed with one task in mind: Imitating the rough shape of a hand getting ready to penetrate the sphincter for a full fisting. It excels all other toys in this. From the dullish tip which feels like fingers pressed together to minimizes the footprint over the gradual increase until the ridge which feels like the knuckles to the steep decrease on the neck which emulates the wrist. The entire toy feels very close to a hand without the ruggedness a realistic hand cast often has. So it is perfect for getting accustomed to, training and stretching – if it wasn’t for the firmness.

Widde Base which makes Snuckle Easy to Hold

What is “the” best firmness for a toy and especially a trainings plug is an almost religious discussion. Many people prefer as soft as possible which Friendly Toy definitively is. Being one of the softest in the market, it is even softer than their local rivals from Topped Toys which use Shore 00-33 silicone. Softness means gentle opening up and easy slipping through. Generally there is less struggle going in and out. My softness loving testees celebrated the squishiness and really enjoyed the quick popping in when the sphincter gave in to the toy and the gently dragging pull when being pulled out. But softness also increases the chance of skin folds getting caught causing unintended and unpleasant pinching. And while soft toys gently pushes open, the contrast to a rather firm hand is quite intense. I used to say that when you can take a plug with 7cm diameter, you were ready for a fist. This rule of thumb does not apply for such soft toys! Another disadvantage is that when you are not relaxed or did enough pre-stretching, the tip can flatten against the sphincter, making entry even more difficult.

The softness also gives away a bit of possible frills. The dull tip and ridge would have made the Snuckle a great toy for targeted prostate stimulation. But it is hard to really apply intense pressure with the soft toy. You can definitively feel something but it is not as intense as with firmer toys.

The Ridge Which Mimics the Knuckles of the Wirst

However, the base is highly functional. It is ergonomically shaped so it fits well between the cheeks when keeping in the plug for an extended period of time. The front tip is a bit thinner, longer and pointed for external prostate pressure massage. Yet it is too soft to have a noticeable effect when grinding the plug on the taint. The back tip is wider and shorter to close off on the buttocks perfectly. The base is large enough for a secure grip for selfplay. When your hands are lubey the soft tips can easily slip away so be careful when you yank with full force.  Due to the soft material Snuckle is actually one of the plugs you can wear the longest because your rear muscles will simply push the soft material into the right space.

Where to buy?

The Snuckle, like all Friendly Toys, are sold directly through their website. The toy starts out at at a very inexpensive 36.95€ for the smallest Snuckle 22 with 18cm circumference and goes up to 155.95€ for the BIG Snuckle 42. Friendly Toys vends at different events where they sell “flops”, marble colored toys which are made when switching from one silicone color to another at a discounted prices. So if you want something more colorful or unique, check them out!

Pig-Hole Super-Max & Colossus

The Oxballs Colossus & Super-Max

Vendor: Oxballs

The Oxballs Pig-Hole is the most popular single toy on here. No reviews gets more clicks or traffic from search engines, no toy is the topic of more reader questions. Every time Oxballs just hints on social media that a new Pig-Hole is in the works, I get dozens of DMs if I already know more or have played with a prototype. Since I live about 9,500km away from the Oxballs HQ, I am sadly not part of that elite beta test circle. But I try to get my hands on the new toys as soon as possible and get you an educated opinion which proved a bit more challenging than the previous toys. But I am getting ahead of myself.

Construction

Even the new sizes follow the general design of the original toy. The opening at the top is a bit slanted with a tip for easier insertion. From the opening the body extends to a wide barrel shape and later tapers to a small neck until flowing into a base. The base has the same shape of the one of the Pig-Hole FF with recesses in the middle for better fitting between the cheeks.

The measurements of the toys are insanely huge:

Opening Barrel Neck Base Footprint
Super-Max 85x80mm 116x 112mm 78x73mm 128x112mm
Colossus 97x95mm 137x130mm 92x90mm 150x115mm

The Pig-Hol Colossus is so big, the Original Pig-Hole #5 Almost fits inside it with Ease

Both sizes are only cast in Oxballs’ softer Morph silicone which in theory makes handling and the taking of the toy easier. In order to keep it stable, even when the muscles try to push it out, all Pig-Holes have lateral ridges inside the barrel for added stability. But on these big boys the ridges inside the barrel scaled with the size. The massive increase in width and height makes them way more rigid. So even when your rectum contracts and wants to expel the BIG foreign object, the barrel will not compress, locking it in place. This of course makes also the insertion more difficult.  Especially the Colossus is almost impossible to fold even with dry hands. As soon you add lube, this becomes a slapstick act instead of a sexy process.

For the first time with Pig-Holes, both the Super-Max and the Colossus come in different colors: Plain black and blue have been standard colors for the toy range. But for the new sizes they have added the option to have a black base and neck and a barrel in either pink, yellow, purple, green or red. Since both colors of the platinum silicone are cast in following each other, the color sometimes creates a little marble effect on the base.

The Accidental Marble inside the Black Base

Playing with the Pig-Hole Super-Max & Colossus

I have a hard time calling these objects “toys” rather than novelty items. In my extended circle of greedy anal sluts who make up my testee panel I found one guy who could take the Super-Max after massive pre-stretching. This is mainly due to when folding the toy to insert it, your create a blunt and jagged surface of 60x50mm in the best case. But when you have lube on the toy and on your hands, you never reach that level of compression. So you basically try to push a soda can with an uneven top into your anus. Once inside, the Super-Max inflates quickly due to the stronger ridges. But having it inside is not the most comfortable thing because most rectums are smaller than the barrel. So instead of a comfortable filled feeling and forced openness, there is an uncomfortable feeling of fullness and pressure in your lower abdomen.

The good thing is, the lower opening is now so wide that a medium sized hand can push through without having to fight the material strength – if the anus does not compress the neck. With former Pig-Holes, you could use to toy to increase the size of knots and plugs. But except the largest toys (think SquarePeg Monster Egg or Bad Dragon Rex XL), the inside of the Super-Max is actually larger than the toy. Pushing such big toys in is actually a challenge because the ridges make the barrel so stiff, it takes a lot of force to expend.

A Steak of Bright Green in the Base of Pig-Hole Colossus

Pulling the toy out feels more uncomfortable than a hard de-knotting. With the ridges inside prying the anus open from the inside, you have to pull until the muscle gives in and releases the toy. The Super-Max should not stay inside the rectum for too long. Because once the lube has been absorbed, getting it out is even more difficult.

So much about the Super-Max. Now let’s look at the Colossus. If you can get it to fold and stay folded – which is impossible once lube has been applied – the top has a footprint of 70x65mm and only gets bigger from there on. Since the barrel is so long, the strong ridges inside the barrel forces it to expend at the top while you are still pushing the toy through the sphincter – if you can find a bottom to accommodate it. The barrel is so absurdly large, that it is larger than even the most cavernous rectum. So I cannot imagine it being comfortable if you can get it somehow in. How to get it out is probably a different question. But these are all hypotheticals. I have not found a testee who could take the Colossus.

The Ridges inside the Barrel of the Pig-Hole Colossus for Added Stability and Ridgidity

That both toys and especially the Colossus are novelty toys, also shows in its presence on social media and in retail. Usually, when a new Pig-Hole gets released, greedy bottoms rush to the shops to buy it and proudly display their gaping hole stuffed with a silicone tunnel plug. For the Colossus, I could only find a handful of media of the toy in use and for the Super-Max only slightly more. This might be partly due to not many stores selling it. Both new sizes are for such a niche audience that the risk of not selling it is probably too high.

After having played with the Super-Max a couple of times, I also wonder who would need it. Yes, there are a few fistees who have blown out their anus so much that they need a massive barrel to keep the toy from falling out. But these are only a few ones. For most other fistees the Pig-Hole FF or if that is too small the more textured Pig-Hole Popper Jumbo are easier to handle and offer the same play qualities.

As a novelty item in popping colors which intimidates newbies and makes seasoned players chuckle, the Colossus is a fun item. If you play with really greedy and loose holes, having the Super-Max ready when you need to challenge an over self-confident is also fun. But to be frank, for the price you pay, rather get the Pig-Hole FF and the Pig-Hole Popper Jumbo. In 99% of the cases you will get more and easier fun out of them. Because in the end, when a toy is too difficult to handle and too rarely used, you will put it out of sight and use it even less. Unless you present it as a decoration which I am doing with my Colossus.

Where to buy?

Both Pig-Holes can be ordered directly from Oxballs. The Super-Max costs $238 and the Colossus $298.

When Oxballs announced that they would be releasing some new, even bigger Pig-Hoes, my inbox exploded. If had played with one yet, what my opinion on those were, how the new silicone blend compared to the old one. Against popular opinion I only very rarely get preproduction samples. So during my USA trip in September I stocked up with some new Oxballs stuff. And after some thorough review scenes, here are my thoughts.

Construction

All Pig-Hole Popper share the same basic design of Pig-Holes. The Popper Tall and Big Gaper are versions of the Pig-Hole Deep (link to review), the Jumbo Gaper is basically an Pig-Hole FF (link to review). They also keep the basic wall strength. Inside the barrel is textured with lateral ridges like on their cousins. The big different is that the outside of the barrel is not smooth but it is textured with big bumps. There are three on the Big Gaper, four on the Tall and five Bumps on the Jumbo Gaper. Like the Pig-Hole Deep and FF all Popper cannot be turned inside out.

Before I come to the dimensions, a word on the maximum dimensions. After my last Pig-Hole reviews, I have gotten a couple of messages complaining that my measurements are not accurate. The combined the Pig-Hole with a dick/ fist/ toy and the maximum dimensions were considerable larger than described. Since the silicone is flexible, it will stretch. So the toy can feel and be considerable larger than measured when stuffed!

Toy Base Bottom Opening Max. Dimensions Top Opening Insertable Length Overall Length
Big Gaper 80x93mm 37x45mm 67x68mm 33x38mm 110mm 145mm
Tall 102x116mm 47x54mm 80x86mm 43x50mm 150mm 192mm
Jumbo Gaper 87x118mm 52x67mm 105x106mm 49x64mm 107mm 150mm

The Opening of the Jumbo Gaper compared to the FF

For the Popper range, Oxballs uses a new platinum silicone blend they call “Marshmallow silicone”. Of course the material has the same material properties as every other silicone blend. It is non-toxic, hypoallergenic, easy to clean and sanitize with warm soap water.  In order not to damage the toys, only use it with water- or oil-based lubes. The silicone oil in silicone lube disintegrates the silicone over time. Firmness-wise I recall reading a Shore 00-value on Twitter. But since I cannot find the Tweet again, I am not going to quote it, especially since the value sounded quite low compared to the felt firmness. Subjectively the firmness sits between the regular Pig-Hole silicone and the Oxballs’ Morph silicone.

Colorwise Oxballs follows recent years’ trend of marbled, brightly colored anal toys. Besides the classic Solid Black, the offer six marble colors: Fire (Red & Orange), Water (Blue & Teal), Weed (Lime & Olive), Orchid (Purple & Lavender), Unicorn (Violet & Light Blue) and Rosebud (Magenta & Pink).  My Popper Jumbo is Black, the Popper Big Gaper Water and the Popper Tall’s color is Rosebud. Each marble is different with an individual color and pattern. Personally, I would have preferred my Water to have more blue and instead of the Rosebud and Black, I’d chosen Fire and Weed. But since there were so many review requests coming for these toys, I chose availability over colors.

The Bottom of the Jumbo Gaper and FF

Playing with the Pig-Hole Poppers

Despite being firmer than the Morph silicone (link to review), the Marshmallow of the Poppers is squishy yet far from the sponginess of the Marshmallows. “Firm Fudge” would probably been a better description though in regards of anal play probably not as sexy as Marshmallow.

The bumps around the barrel have two effects: First, the added texture makes taking the toy more difficult. The bumps are well rounded but the “rugged” surface keeps the toys from sliding in as easily as its smooth cousins (nota bene: I have not yet played with the Pig-Hole Squeal but I assume it’s texture will make it more difficult to take it). Second, the massive lumps around the barrel make it more rigid. Surprisingly, fisting through the Popper Jumbo Gaper is not much more difficult than through the Pig-Hole FF in regular firmness (I don’t have a Morph for comparison). This is partly due to the Marshmallow silicone being softer and the grooves between the bumps serve as expansion joints. With very small and nimble hands you can fist through the Popper Tall. The Popper Big Gaper is not fistable regardless of how small and strong the hand is!

The Bumps/ Knots of the Pig-Hole Popper

But the Big Gaper is the perfect dick sheath if you want to get knot-fucked! Most fantasy sheaths are made out of too thin, too soft silicone so they slip off easily. This is not the case with the Big Gaper! Of course with either need to grab the base while fucking or put the plug in a strap-on harness before you put in on your dick. For REALLY well-endowed guys, this might also work with the Popper Tall. Naturally, the Big Gaper is also a good fuck plug. The ridged inside the barrel will massage the glans while it slides through the tunnel.

The different Pig-Hole Popper stuffed with the Organotoy Sit-Plug, the Topped Toys Gape Keeper and SquarePeg Egg Plugs

The added spring and rigidity of the bumps makes folding the Pig-Hole Popper more difficult. If you are not extremely lose, folding the Pig-Hole is the best way to insert it. To fold the Poppers, grab the bumps on the lower end of the aperture and push those inwards. This is quite difficult with a well-lubed toy but it is the only way to decrease the diameter and make the toy more compact to push it through the sphincter. It truly is a toy for those holes who are not challenged by the larger Pig-Holes anymore.

For bottomless holes, another insertion method is putting a plug inside the tunnel and push the whole, not-collapsible Pig-Hole Popper into the hopefully well poppered bottom. You can adjust the intensity by your choice of plug: The softer and more rounded the plug, the easier will go in (for this I recommend a Topped Toys Gape Keeper [link to review] or SquarePeg Egg Plug in soft [link to review]). If you like it HARD, choose a firm Egg Plug (link to review) and/ or a plug the fills and stretched the inside of the barrel completely like the SquarePeg Acorn (link to review) or Organotoy Sit-Plug (link to review). If you grab the bottom of the Pig-Hole Popper and the stuffing plug, you can fuck the bottom with the texture and torment his sphincter and prostate by turning the combo inside his rectum. This is an intense ride but fun for texture junkies (like me).

Openings of the Pig-Hole Popper compared to old Pig-Holes

The bumps’ “texture” and larger diameter lock the Poppers quite well into the hole even when lubed handsomely. During the testing period accidentally shooting out the Pig-Hole Popper did not happen. So if you have an issue with your anus ejecting Pig-Holes, give the Poppers a try. From this angle the Big Gaper starts to make sense. My – to be frank quite greedy and experienced – testees were looking at this size a bit puzzled: Why introduce the Popper bumps onto a small toy? It is made for people not so anally experienced yet who for example want to turn their rectum into a free for urinal but fear that the trough might fall out. To learn what the different kinds of Pig-Holes are for, read my review of the Original Pig-Hole Range, the Pig-Hole Morph, the Pig-Hole FF and the Pig-Hole Deep (and yes, I am aware that I still have to review the Pig-Hole Squeal).

Bases of the Pig-Hole Popper compared to old Pig-Holes

Finally, let’s get down & dirty for some important pieces of sewer play advice. If you are faint of heart, stop reading here. From reader questions I know that quite a few of you like to play dirty with the Pig-Holes. Especially diaper peers and guys who want to surrender control completely enjoy the gaping powers of the toy. However, silicone takes on smell easily. The softer, the quicker. The longer the toy is exposed to the smell-carrying substance, the “deeper” the smell sinks into the toy. So superficial cleaning with disodorizing or sanitizing agents will not help. The good news is, the smell will fade over time. But if you have play partners who are picky about certain scents, you might want to get two Pig-Holes: One for dirty, one for clean play.

Where to buy?

You can get the Pig-Hole Popper directly at Oxballs. The Big Gaper is $99, the Tall is $159 and finally the Jumbo Gaper is $189 which is probably going to be the most popular.

Vendor: ElyX Toys

In the six years that I have been reviewing anal toys I have reviewed some huge toys. But for some readers the BIG size options of the toys I have reviewed were not large enough. So toys with ElyX I am following your request to take a look at some of the most MASSIVE toys on the market.

The ElyX Toy Solaris & Pegasi

Construction

Among my testees there was some discussion in which form category these toys belong but despite the length we settled for plugs despite the length these toys can get in larger sizes. In the end, you buy an ElyX toy to get stretched and fill full which made us lean a bit toward plug instead of (knotted) dildo.

ElyX only makes toys out of platinum silicone so they are 100% body safe and easy to clean. Though you must not use them with silicone lube because it will disintegrate the material. Making some of the biggest insertable toys on the planet is also reflected in the firmness option. Unlike other companies ElyX starts with toys in Shore 00-20 which is extremely squishy but also delicate. These toys are extremely prone for creases. They have to be stored upright and other toys must not lay on them in a used-toy bucket. Other firmness options are the common soft Shore 00-30 and the medium firm Shore 00-50.

The Vac-U-Lock and Suction Cup

All toys can be equipped with a Vac-U-Lock hole or a deep suction cup. The Vac-U-Lock is great if you are playing with a partner because you can attach a handle or he can push his finger in the hole to guide the toy. The smaller versions of the toy will work on a fuck machine. The larger one are too heavy for the rods. The deep suction cup surprised me! It is so deep and thus strong that even large toys stick to the wall. So if this is your kind of solo play style, I highly recommend it.

One of the nice properties of platinum silicone how well it takes on color and effects like UV activity or glow in the dark. The creative mind behind ElyX toys on a regular basis creates new patterns, marbles and combinations. So I recommend checking out his Twitter feed for inspiration or approach him with your own ideas.

Pegasi’s Tip

Pegasi starts out with two flattish bulbs that for the tip. The taper towards a short neck which forms into a shallow ridge on the front and the back. Left and right of these ridges are massive bulbs. Below them runs a ridge around the toy. The neck is also textured with two ridges before ending in a wide base.

While Pegasi has big yet smooth flowing texture, Solaris plays a different game. Across the top of the tip run two parallel ridges which end in what could be considered a glans rim. Left and right of the ridges are small bumps. The back of the shaft is textured by two horizontal ridges while the front features a pair of converging vertical ridges. These ridges run all the way to the base and up again until just below the horizontal ones. The encapsulate two bumps, the lower ones so large, they could be called a knot. The neck above the base is quite short but the texture will still keep the toy locked in your hole.

 

The Double Bumps Surrounded by the Ridge

Playing with Pegasi & Solaris

First things first: I have promised you BIG toys and when you look at the pics, you will probably say “They are big but not that massive.” In order for (most of) my testees and me to play with them, I chose “sensible” sizes. But you can get both toys like all ElyX toys in super-sizes. Though when they go large they also go long. So keep in mind that the texture that first tantalizes your rectum will eventually (over) stimulate your sensitive second sphincter.

Solaris‘ Tip

Despite my toys being the smaller sizes of the range, they are not for beginners. You need a trained (as in fistable!) and pre-stretched hole to really enjoy the toys.  Due to the dull tip and high level of texture, they will not gradually open up your hole or slide in easily. So if a stretching toy like the SP Egg, the OT Sit-Plug or the TT Gape Keeper fits, it is unlikely that similarly sized ElyX toy will fit.

The Pegasi is a bit more for “beginner” or people looking for a smooth sensation ride. The different textures and stretching points are stacked on top of each other so you can enjoy them individually. Solaris on the other hand is a bit chaotic with lateral bulbs next to ridges and textures being all over the place. So Solaris unleashes his full potential best in the hands of a skilled top who twists and turns the toy inside the hole. It takes some learning but once you figured the toy out, you can purposely create a bit of stimulus overload when one texture is scratching the prostate while the anus is stimulated differently. When you ride the toys, the textures are a bit all over the place.

Pegasi’s Ridges

Pegasi is made for riding! The two lateral bulges deliver a great stretching sensation. Once you go deeper, the first ridge is perfect for prostate humping/ massaging while the lower two ridges stimulate the anus. But also in the hands of a top, it reveals some hidden qualities. The bulgey tip is perfect for prostate stimulation and turning the knotty bulges inside the anus makes a great stretch sensation.

Where to buy?

You can buy all toys through ElyX’s Etsy store. There are not always all sizes and colors available. If you are interested in something particular, drop him a message.

Vendor: Oxballs

When most people hear “Oxballs tunnel plug” they immediately think off the many different iterations of the Pig-Hole. This review is here to fix that! Because especially when you are a texture junky like me, you are missing out on a lot when you are miss the Butt-Hole.

Construction

Being a tunnel plug the Butt-Hole starts out with an opening. The rim is a thin-walled bulge. It’s the first of five bulges which further down increase in width and thickness. The diameter also increases so they form a barrel-shaped body which slightly arches to one side. Since the shaft below the last bulge is thinner than the bludge itself (duh…), you could call it a neck. But the size difference is not so considerable as on other plugs.

The Oxballs Butt-Hole #3

The thick base is eclectically to follow the shape of an ass crack. Like all Oxballs tunnel plugs it is “textured” with a relievo of the product name. Unlike the Pig-Hole the size is not embossed so you have to keep that in mind of feel it.

Like all Oxballs butt toys, the Butt-Hole is made out of platinum silicone which is 100% body safe and easy to clean. It only comes in their standard firmness and not in the softer morph silicone. Color-wise you can choose between black and red.

There are three sizes available. The size 1 is a bit smaller than the Pig-Hole Medium, the #2 a bit smaller than the large and the largest #3 I have bought Oxballs claims to be close to the Pig-Hole XXL. But having two different Pig-Holes in my collection (standard and morph) and playing with them a lot, I would say from the felt size it sits right between the XL and XXL. Though when choosing your size, consider that a textured toy of the same size will always be more difficult to take than a smooth one like the Pig-Hole.

The Cluster of Bumps for Stimulating the Top’s Dick

Playing with the Butt-Hole

The Butt-Hole is a fuck plug! And it works very differently if it is used passively or actively on the sub.

“Passive” use is putting the Butt-Hole into the bottom and fuck into it – either with a dildo or even better a real dick. As the glans and shaft penetrate the tunnel, it extends and even straightens out a bit, depending on the dick’s anatomy. This sets the bulges in motion and massages both the rectum and especially the prostate because the highest bulge has been strategically placed where the prostate is located on most males. Fucking an anus via the Butt-Hole is stimulating for the top. The cluster of bumps around the entrance stimulate the glans and shaft well. Like the inside of a traditional Pig-Hole the inside of the barrel is textured with lateral bulges which depending on the endowment also stimulate the top’s glans and shaft. So all things considered, the Butt-Hole holds all the promises a cock extender makes but rarely can keep. Except holding onto the dick via a scrotum strap. But since those never work on cock extenders too, the Butt-Hole is a good, unexpected contender in this category.

The Bulges Inside and Outside the Butt-Hole

“Active” use means pushing and pulling the Butt-Hole out of the bottom. Since this is a tunnel plug, you need to reinforce it. Depending on how intensely you want to make the bulges, you either choose a soft (SquarePeg Egg plug in SuperSoft or Topped Toys Gape Keeper respectively Chute) or a firm (SquarePeg Egg in Firm) stuffing. The less the filling plug compresses, the more the ridges stimulate the anus and depending on how you turn the plug also the prostate. But don’t let yourself be fooled, there is no real “soft” setting. Since the Butt-Hole only comes in medium firmness you can dial down the intensity but it is still a strong, stimulating ride for more experienced sphincters.

The barrel of this tunnel plug is short and tighter than on the various Pig-Holes, especially the Deep. So filling in liquids (or solids you pigs…) works a bit better than with his cousins. The Butt-Hole is also compatible with Oxballs Stopper plugs to keep stuff from flowing outside. While the base is somewhat ergonomically shaped to fit between ass cheeks, the stepping of bulges instead of a continuous extension does not keep the Butt-Hole as securely locked inside the rectum as a Pig-Hole. So if you want to plug and seal your sub for extended periods of time, use the classic instead this enfant terrible.

Where to buy?

Sadly, the Butt-Hole is not as widely available as the Pig-Hole being a bit of a niche design for experienced players. So you best order it through Oxballs directly for between $66 and $94 depending on the size.

Vendor: Organotoy

It’s story time again on ToyTorture.com:  In the fall of 2019 my boyfriend Puppy Sit asked me which toy is best to train his hole to take a fist. If we lived in the USA, the answer would have been easy with several good platinum silicone toy series available. But to get them in Europe shipping plus custom and import duties make them an expensive transitory toy. So I sat down on the drawing board, put all my play and review experience into the design and challenged Organotoy to manufacture the time toy until Christmas.

Earlier this year Organotoy contacted me. In the wake of people staying at home and playing with themselves and following my BF’s and my tweets about his toy they have gotten so many requests for this toy. Since my goal is to spread the usage of good quality toys, I gladly gave them permission to turn the two sizes into an entire range of plugs which they named Sit after the puppy name of my BF.

The Organotoy Sit-Plug

The First Ever Made Sit-Plug with a Custom Airburshed for my BF

Construction

Unlike its competitors, the Sit-Plug is not completely Egg shaped. The tip of the plug is a bit pointy and then flows into steep slopes. A bit below the maximum diameter the body flows into a conical neck before ending in a wide, thick base with one a pointy end sticking up. The most striking difference is the intersection of the body: It is not round but elliptic!

Like all Organotoy products, the Sit-Plug is made out of platinum silicone which allows for great customization. Their firmness range goes from Shore 00-30 up to Shore A30. In my experience and personal preference firmer toys are better for training while softer toys are better form long-term training. If you want to loosen up your sphincter to take a fist, I recommend a firmness between Shore A8 and A15 because in the end a human hand is also not squishy. Colorwise you can from a subtle single color over UV or glow in the dark to elaborate patterns like fades or marbles. If you want to make the toy extra special, the lead designer of Organotoy is a former Hollywood SFX makeup artist who can go amazing airbrush art – like with the biohazard sign on the plug for my BF.

The current size range of the Sit-Plug covers these seven sizes. To my knowledge three even larger sizes are in the works and apparently Organotoy had demand for a size between the XXS and S.

Size Maximum Elliptic Size Diameter Neck Insertable Length Overall Length
XXS 25x30mm 15mm 46mm 68mm
S 35x40mm 17mm 61mm 88mm
M 45x50mm 27mm 77mm 113mm
L 55x60mm 35mm 95mm 130mm
XL 65x70mm 41mm 113mm 157mm
XXL 75x80mm 47mm 122mm 173mm
XXXL 95x90mm 55mm 137mm 205mm

The Sit-Plug between its Main Competitors

Playing with the Sit-Plug

The stretch of the Sit-Plug roughly follows the stretch a human hand and thus is a little bit more challenging than the very smooth and gradually opening of an Egg plug for example. But it is still smooth and round enough that once you have stretched and relaxed enough the Sit-Plug glides in and out perfectly, giving you the delightful feeling when the sphincter is stretched. In order to train the hole to open up quicker and more easily, the body is elliptical. So when you twist and turn the toy while moving it in and out, the diameter slightly feels larger and thus helps to make the muscle smooth. Another design aspect that leads to maximum stretch training is the high ration between maximum diameter of the body and the neck.

The Large Ration between the Body and the Neck for Maximum Stretch

The conical transition from body to neck also mimics the transition from wrist to hand. In my years of reviewing toys, I have been getting several messages from new fistees that they were surprised how flat the bottom of the hand is and that they are not prepared for such a challenge, especially when their sphincter started to tighten again. The relative dullness also keeps the toy more securely locked inside for long-term wearing.

However, especially in the larger size, the base is not really made for long-term play. Its wide and thick body was designed to provide optimum grip when fucking yourself with the plug on your quest to loosen up the hole.  If you want to wear the plug long-term, definitively choose a softer silicone to make the base settle more easily between your cheeks.

The Large Base for Optimal Grip and Pointy Wing for Added Stimulation

The small tip is for prostate stimulation on the perineum or – as an FtM testee told me – clitoral stimulation. For a basic stimulation you can ride and grind the toy; silicone is sturdy enough to take a beating. But this little wing is best enjoyed with a powerful massager pressed against it. The firmer the silicone, the better the vibrations get transmitted.

Where to buy?

The Sit-Plug is one of the first Organotoy products which they offer for wholesale partner. I don’t know where they are already listed but if you are interested in selling them wholesale, you can mail them here. If you are like me, a (ab)normal consumer you I recommend buying directly from then because this way you can customize them in firmness and colors. The range XXS starts at 20,96€ and currently ends at 83,96€ for the XXXL plus customization.

Construction

The Oxballs Pig-Hole is one of the most widely used anal toys in the kink scene. The Deep-2 is a special, extra long version of it.

The Oxballs Pig-Hole Deep

In the lower half the design is almost like on his shorter brother: An oval base surrounds a 40x60mm hoping hole. The base is wide so it does not get accidently sucked into the rectum. An about 40mm and thus almost twice as long neck as on the standard Pig-Hole raise out of the base. Above it sits a barrel shaped body which on the inside is reinforced by grooves so it does not collapse that easily. The body measures 71x85mm on the outside (if you have a technique to measure the inside dimensions, hit me up) so size-wise the Deep-2 sits between the Pig-Hole XL and XXL (or 4 and 5 if you go by the embossed numbers). The biggest difference between the standard and the Deep Pig-Hole is above the body. Out of it raises a tube. Since its top is slanted it is 55mm high on the short and 70mm on the tall side.

Like on all Pig-Holes there is a little relievo with the product name and the size number rising from the base’s rim – just in case you are wondering which size your greedy hole just swallowed.

There is a smaller version out there called the Deep-1 which is about 17% smaller in every dimension and thus too small to fist through for example. I would only recommend buying it when you rectum is too small to fit the Deep-2’s long tube. Otherwise, buy the toys for the hole you want not the hole you have, while respecting your body’s limits, especially depth-wise.

Playing with the Pig-Hole Deep-2

Most important thing first: The Pig-Hole Deep is made for loose holes. Really loose holes! If your hole cannot swallow the tube and the body with ease, you will not have much fun with this toy. While the  standard Pig-Hole can be folded to be pushed through the sphincter, the long tube and the barrel cannot be folded when lubed up. So it either goes in as it is or it doesn’t.

Still with me? Then you are a greedy ass pig and this toy is a good addition to your toy collection! Both the opening and the body are a bit smaller than on the Pig-Hole XXL. Yet a determined fister with maximum medium sized hands can fist through the neck, placing the fist inside the body. Once there, the fun really starts. When he starts to move his wrist and fingers, the end of the tube will stimulate the sensitive mucosa of the rectum. Fisting into the Deep-2 is easier with the blue colored Morph Silicone version which is about 10% softer than the red and black silicone. While this does not sound much, it is a lot! Yet it requires an even looser hole to be inserted.

In really rare cases, the anus and the second sphincter align that the tip pushes through it, sending the bottom into ecstasy.  In this case, the Pig-Hole Deep is a great gateway into the colon, making depth play with toys considerably easier. But this is a unicorn situation just two lucky testee tops each had once.  Another unicorn situation is finding a top with small hands and arms who can push trough all the way – if you have a large enough rectum. A friend of mine has XS hands and managed to do this with his partner. Every movement of his arm and wrist was transferred onto the toy, stimulating anus, prostate and rectum at the same time.

But enough for these borderline and once-in-a-million cases. Even if your top has large hands, the Pig-Hole Deep has much to offer. Twisting the tunnel plug will stimulate the rectum because the slanted top moves over the mucosa. For even stronger stimulation and added pressure on the prostate you can stuff it with other toys; my choice is a SquarePeg Medium Acorn or XL Egg. These toys are perfect for transmitting vibrations. Simply press a massager of your choice – I would recommend a Doxy – and watch your bottom squirm. In theory you can place the massager’s head into the Pig-Hole Deep’s body but I would only recommend that if you have a masochistic sub, a soundproof playroom and your bottom is securely fettered inside the sling (including some form of waist restraints!). The direct stimulation is VERY intense and lead to quick safewording – or hands-free orgasms. It was definitively not my cup of tea but everybody is different.

Where to buy?

You can buy the Pig-Hole Deep-1 for £59.99 and the Deep-2 for £79.99 both at Regulation.

Feeling Knotty – Non-Anthro Toys with Bottom Bulges

The Topped Toy Hilt, the Oxalls Pig-Hole Morph XXL and the SquarePeg Happy Hour, three non-anthro knotted toy

This week instead of a review I want to answer a bunch of read questions I have been getting increasingly more often in the past few months: Where to get non-anthropomorphic knotted toys?

When I first noticed this kind of question getting more and more common I was actually surprised. In the past, most knot-related questions came from furries and other groups who were looking for the greatest amount of immersion when playing with knotted toys. But I guess the influx of anal aficionados which the Covid restrictions brought into the fisting scene (for which I might be partly responsible with my hugely successful Selfplay 101 series in spring 2020), also inspired people to play with their butt who are appalled by even the notion of sticking a dog or (Bad) dragon or whatsoever inspired dildo up their ass.

What are knots and why are they so popular?

Especially for the newcomers, innocent and ignorant, let’s briefly explain what a knot is. It is a zoological term and describes a swelling at the root of a canine’s penis. When the canine becomes increasingly aroused, this cavernous body massively increases in size. The reason for that is to connect the two mating parties (terminus technicus “to tie” them) to increase the likelihood of the semen finding an egg. Because of that all bulges at the bottom of toy’s shaft are commonly called “knot”.

For anal toys knots are hot because they target the two stimulation areas in the rectum which bring pleasure: The anus subjected to a stretching sensation and the prostate to which pressure is applied. Popping a knot through the sphincter can be a mindblowing and ecstatic experience (If you are pre-stretched enough. Otherwise it can lead to a visit to the ER and a life on incontinence). Riding a knot (vigorously) is one of the most common triggers for anal orgasms.

Comparing the Knot Profile of the Regular and the Big Kevin

Which “neutral” knotted toys are there?

Frankly, not many. For reasons too complex to get into now, the furry scene used to be the driving force in the development of high end anal toys and they expected as much immersion, ergo coming design-wise as close to the real deal as possible.  And most non-furry toy users did not care that a replica of a dog’s dick gave them pleasure. But there are some sourced – even though to be frank I am going to stretch the definition a bit to feature a wide range of possible toys here.

The biggest manufacturer for toys like these is SquarePegs. Scott, the founder and designer of the toys is not only a total ass pig but also trained sculptor. He knows how a toy needs to look like to stimulate the right spots! And being a modern sculptor he is not interested in an exact replica of the real world but in creating stunning, sweeping abstract sculptures that equally pleasure the eye and the ass.

Let’s start out with a toy I sadly have not yet had the pleasure of personally play with: The (Big) Kevin. This toy is a perfect representation of what I meant when Scott designs purposefully sculptures of the ass: A shaft the loosely looks like a realistic human dick (though with a bit dullish tip) features two spherical bulges at the bottom which probably give an intense knotting sensation. Like a canine toy the shaft-knot ratio is relatively high for the most intense possible stimulation when the knot pushes through the sphincter.

Detail of the Flowing yet Challenging Thick Elements of the Blunger

The Blunger has an entire shaft of hole stimulating bulges and ridges on its shaft but the big one at the bottom gives a HUGE impression. This is partly due to tip of it penetrating the second sphincter something this toy has in common with most bigger anthro toys that feature a knot. A good toy to prepare for this sensation is the Longneck Humped which gradually opens up the sensitive area where the colon becomes the rectum. The “knot” is more a ridge yet the stretch sensation and prostate pressure is not less intense.

The SquarePeg Poppers

If you have problems with deep play – like many ass player – the Happy Hour with its bulgey pin-shape is perfect for stimulating both sphincter and anus without going deep. With the small groove in the middle it even slightly simulates the division between the two sides of a real knot. Being a plug, it can be easily turned inside the hole for additional prostate pressure or max. stretch when turned perpendicular.

Another toy I have not yet played with or have heard opinions about but matches the criteria is the Popper though a bit inverted. The massive head prys open the sphincter while after a short rest comes the voluminous yet slightly smaller body. Riding both bubbles is probably quite hot but especially an advanced hole will find the bottom bulge anticlimactic.

Size comparison of the different Ergo Plug Sizes

When stretching the definition a bit further, the Acorn especially on the way out gives all the right stimulations of a knot. On the way in, there is just the little ridge above the rim which may look small but gives intense feelings when popping in.

While we are stretching the definitions, let’s turn to Oxballs. Their Ergo plug (aka the plug section of the probably world’s most popular pup play tail) is a case of Acorn. It looks innocent but slight kink in the middle of the body can do wonders to the prostate and anus in skilled hands. The ridge it creates both increases the pressure onto sphincter and is a grove to “milk” the prostate when caught inside the groove. Oxballs have been working on a larger Ergo Plug and I cannot wait to get that one and finally review this toy!

The Pig-Hole FF’s Barrel Size compared to the Size of the Pig-Hole XXL

A generally immensely popular and for this case very useful toy is the Pig-Hole. Available in sizes from “Novice” to “Crater Cunt” it is for every experience level. Lubing it up and sliding it over a dildo’s shaft can turn every plain, pillar like silicone dong into a knotted to. To be fair, especially the softer blue Morph silicone version can collapses more easily and the barrel can be compressed for a less intense knotting experience. To lessen the effect,  you can stack two Pig-Hole above each other. But you have to leave a size in between, s o you can pull a Large over a Small. To pull a Medium over a Small, the Medium has to be blue and you REALLY have to want it.

The Topped Toy Hilt 115

The last company to enter bring out a toy meeting my criteria is Topped Toys from Canada. Their Hilt features a MASSIVE knot. The flowing lines the three-dimensional shape the shaft leads to a relatively large shaft-knot ration if you look at the shaft right above the dullish knot. More than any SquarePeg toy the thickening at the bottom of Hilt’s shaft is stylized, brutish interpretation of a knot. The knotting is very intense and difficult to take. This is underlined by the size range Topped Toys offers.

These are to my knowledge the high quality silicone toys which create the effect of a knot without being (fantasy) animal inspired. But in the past years the toy market has become more and more dynamic and I might have overlooked a toy. So if you have found a toy I have missed, mail me! Though to be frank most manufacturer are targeting the anthro market so it is unlikely.

Anal Fist Training 101

Von | | , ,

tl;dr
Gentle fucking your anus with either the Organotoy Sit-Plug, SquarePeg Egg or the Topped Toy Gape Keeper with increasing larger sizes over time will make your hole fistable. Once you more or less easily take a firm Sit-Plug XL, Gape Kepper 93 or XXL Egg you should be able to take a medium size fist.

Ever since I started reviewing non-stim anal toys some 5 years ago, one of the most frequently asked set of question I have gotten is: How do I train my hole to take a fist? Which toys are best for the task? (For finding the perfect anal toy in general look here) Since review-wise I am still in hibernation it is the perfect time to write a comprehensive guide what toys and steps to take to get from a virgin or just dicked ass to a fist-greedy hole.

The SquarePeg Egg, Organotoy Sit-Plug & Topped Toys Gape Kepper, my recommended Plugs for Sphincter Stretch Training

Physiology and Psychology of Getting Ready to take a Fist

First, let’s talk about the bodily aspects of fisting. The anus is a ring sphincter, a muscle. In order to make it smooth and willing open up, you need to carefully stretch it on a regular basis. For this I recommend a tandem of two plugs: One the goes in relatively easily to initially open up your hole and make it smooth. The best way to achieve this and accustom your hole to the stretch sensation of a fist, I recommend a gentle fucking with the plugs. Once the hole is opened up then other one should be used to stretch your sphincter. This again is a pushing/ fucking movement against the sphincter until it becomes uncomfortable. Keep the pressure at that point for a short while, then release and push again. Which level of discomfort is acceptable and needed for a good training is highly individual. Approach it carefully, explore what feels right and keep in mind what I write about pain below!

When the larger plug almost goes in initially as easily as the smaller one and you can fuck yourself with it, it is time to make the larger one your start plug and buy a bigger one for stretching. The size difference between the two plugs should be about 10mm to max. 15mm in diameter for two reasons:

  1. If the plug becomes too large, the overall shape gets too “dull” and it just bluntly presses against the sphincter which will not entice it to open up (more in the perfect shape below).
  2. You need a sense of achievement once in a while. Dully pushing a toy against your hole without any noticeable progress gets boring over time and demotivates. But when after two or three weeks of training you finally conquer a toy, you feel accomplishment. Adding to that the awesome feeling when the light pain of stretching turns into pure anal pleasure, there is strong positive conditioning going on. This is the psychological element of hole training!

One Disadvantage of Silicone: It attracts Dust like Nothing Else (as Shown on the SP Hour Hour)

The stretching can cause a little dragging pain but must not be intense or pinching or sharp! That is the reason why I recommend hole training on your own because you can best control the degree pf force and angle in which the toy should enter. Furthermore, especially in the beginning your hole will be tender quickly. So a potential play partner will be disappointed. Training does also not need to take long! 10 to 15 minutes every two or three days is enough to make progress. Actually, regular stretching is way better than one hour-long session once every blue moon. And with stretching I mean the gentle fucking movement describe above. There is little training effect in long-term wearing of plugs. It is actually counterproductive. If you wear a plug for extended periods of time, your sphincter will contract again and the mucosa inside the rectum will absorb the lube. Pulling the plug out then, especially when you are untrained can be very painful and cause injuries! The anus can take quite the beating when being relaxed! But if not, it is a very delicate body area.

That is why I like to compare fist training to starting Yoga. When you start out, you might be disappointed how clumsy and stiff you are. But when you keep going, push yourself a little bit and within reason on a regular basis at some point you will be able to touch your toes. And the same way, if you keep to the training regime you ultimately will be able to take a fist.

It is hard to pin down an exact plug diameter when you will be able to take a fist. Small fists could have a very sturdy bone structure while large ones could collapse easily making them easy to take than a smaller one. Also, a human hand will never be as soft and smooth as the squishy silicone currently popular. So the softer the silicone, the larger the plug has to be. But a good rule of thumb is that somewhere around 75mm diameter you should be able a medium glove size hand.

It is important to keep in mind that like in training there is a psychological factor in getting fisting: Allowing another person push his or her fist through your sphincter takes a lot of trust and relaxation. It is not uncommon that the first fist is a strong mindfuck and needs to be taken out right away and the session is then over. Do not consider this a failure! Keep in mind that you can now take a fist and go back to this trail of though with confidence before your next scene. Do not stress out if it does not work out the second or third time right away or at all. Being able to take a fist a not a Boolean event but a wonderful journey you have just reached an important step but which is not nearly over! And there are wonderful things and experiences to explore along the way.

A hand in initial fisting position (pressing all stretched out fingers together) has roughly a cone shape. The diameter gradually increases until the thumb knuckle and then tapers again until the wrist. This double cone-shape which causes a stretch both going in and going out is best recreated in plugs.

I often get asked “Can I also use dildos to train?” Of course you can but the training effect will not be as big. The stretch and training effect basically only occurs when the dildo enters the anus. A dildo is good for getting the anus used to being stretched to a certain diameter (and the friction of the fucking stimulating the many nerve endings inside the anus makes the training enjoyable) but helps little in the quest of taking a fist. There are some dildos which through the shape can help train like the SquarePeg Longneck or Mr Hankey El Rey. Dildos which taper towards the bottom and thus increase the stretch are not really useful because often before you get to a useful stretch you run into depth problems. This means that you need to penetrate the very sensible second sphincter where the colon enters the rectum. This is a challenge especially for deep fisting and definitely a story for another day.

Many people get into anal stretching because they like the looks or the mind play (I am looking at your Furries! ;)) associated with fantasy toys like from Bad Dragon, Neotori or KnotMe which are often on the larger side of the size spectrum. One of the distinctive features are they elaborate shapes and textures. Sadly, the more texture and the complexer the shape, the harder they are to take. So they are not good training toys. Of course there are exceptions like the Bad Dragon Vergil or their Egg. It is the closest you get to a pure training plug if you are a purely Bad Dragon afficionado but the base shape makes it hard to grip and almost imossible for longterm wear (If you want to learn more about finding the perfect anal toy and how to store and care for it, take a look at my Anal Toys 101).

Choosing the right Plug

As already written the training plugs should have a smooth and flowing conical shape both before and behind the equator so they easily go in and out. They should be made out of platinum silicone because its surface is super smooth and easy to clean. Finally, they should have an ergonomic base as a good handle when fucking and naturally come in a large number of sizes. These criteria meet three toys: The Organotoy Sit-Plug, SquarePeg Egg and the Topped Toys Gape Keeper. While the Sit-Plug has a slightly conical, the latter two have a long-drawn egg shape. Generally speaking an egg-shape is perfect for training. The cone-shape is a bit more demanding while the long-drawn stretches smoother and slower. Which one you should choose highly depends on your personal preference.

At Shore 00-34 Topped Toys uses slightly softer silicone which follows the current trend towards soft toys. With SquarePeg you have the choice of two firmness grades: SuperSoft (in their signature Bronze orange or a middle grey called Graphite) or Firm (only in black). And at Organotoy you can go crazy from soft Shore 00-30 up top ultra-firm Shore A30. The sweetspot is somewhere between Shore A3 and A10 because anything lower is very wobbely due to the Sit-Plugs thin neck; anything firmer is a real challenge. Personally, I prefer firm toys for training because the firm toys “force” the sphincter open a bit more easily (again, choose the force you are comfortable with and do not overdo it!) and the firmness is closer a human hand.

The Base and Neck of the Three Plugs Next to Each Other

The SquarePeg Egg slopes are steeper compared to the other two and thus goes in a bit more easily. The Topped Toys Gape Keeper is a little bit duller and barrel shaped so it comes a bit closer to simulating the challenge of the thumb knuckle. The Sit-Plug is duller below its maximum diameter. Due to this the plug locks a bit into the rectum and is abit harder to pull out. This is actually a good feature because it immitated the bottom of the human hand. So it is a good training for the moment when the top pulls out his hand. The SquarePeg and Organotoy base is a bit easier to grab but especially at sizes larger than XL a bit cumbersome. Both models come in a wide variety of sizes so you can find the perfect pairing of fucking+stretching plug. If you can, go to a store, touch and look at the toys to find which fit you best. Of course, my reviews of the OT Sit-Plug, SP Egg and TT Gape Keeper are also an excellent point to start 😉

Overview of the Three Different Colors and thus Firmness Degress of SquarePeg Toys

These toys are not inexpensive and I am aware that buying increasingly larger toys is an expensive route to take compared to cheap PVC toys but especially when you leave the realm of mass-commercial sizes (about 60mm diameter) there are not many well-shaped toys to continue your journey towards a fist (And do not get me started on heavy metals and plasticizers in PVC being absorbed by the mucosa in your rectum). Fisting is such a great experience so your hole should be worth it for you! Furthermore, these toy retain a somewhat good second hand value. Or you take my route and hand down some toys to eager bottoms starting the same journey I have been on and keep some if you want to train fistee in the making or need to open up a tense hole.

The SquarePeg Acron with Focus of its Bulge

Then approaching the 70mm mark, there is another toy I recommend for training: The SquarePeg Acorn. Its duller tip is a bit closer to the ergonomics of a hand in fisting position than the perfectly smooth taper of the Gape Keeper and Egg. The duller transition between the body and the neck is also closer to the transition between thumb knuckle and wrist. Around the rim runs a bulge designed to stimulate the prostate and anus which frankly is a challenge and makes taking the plug harder when you are not experience. But holy fuck! When you take it and are experienced enough to relax becomes that little bump a horny feature!

The Topped Toys Grip 106

Sometimes i get the questions if the Topped Toys Grip or more recently the Deep Space are good for training. To be frank, I have not yet played with them but looking at their shape and taking into account my experience with other toys, I would say no for the training aspect. The Grip starts out at a size range where you are almost in fist territory and its slopes are too steep (there is actually a sweetspot between steep- and dullness which is too complicated to explain here). On the Grip 96 and even the Grip 106 it looks a bit better. They could maybe work for training, I actually need to try them myself. But also these two have the very prominent edge around the equator which makes the pop going in intense and the pushing out challenging. This makes the toy interesting and horny for experienced holes but nothing for novices. If you like the shape though, buy them as inspirational toys. Because, you should always buy toys for the hole you want not the hole you have 😉

The Topped Toys Deep Space 70

The Deep Space as its name says is made for training stretch in the depth of the rectum and colon. Furthermore the tip is again shaped for more experienced holes which easily open up. So like the Grip, save the purchase for when you are fist-savvy or get it as playroom decoration to look at and aspire to when training yourself in the meantime.

Pharmacy

Douching

Ok, this is only in this section because you can buy clean-out accessories in the pharmacy. When training yourself, I would recommend not to overdo the douching because it irritates your anus and rectum, making it harder to open up. A thorough clean-out like before a good, heavy fucking should is enough. Yes, the fucking motion of the plugs can lead to some waste falling down. But this small thread it outweighed by the fact that you do not tired your hole out already in the bathroom.

When you get into serious fisting you will need to improve your clean-out routine. But still, you and your partner should always keep in mind where you put your hands. Accidents happen and are neither reason for drama nor for bottom shaming! Be adult about it, clean up, douche again, take a break and continue.  In my opinion, people who put down and shame bottoms for messy incident have not business of sticking their hands and dicks in rectums!

Two of my personally prefered Lubes for Anal Play

Lube

Lube is paramount! Too little lube can cause fissures and other accidents. There are some borderline cases (and with experienced players preferences) where there is too much lube. But especially when starting out with serious ass play, if you ask yourself “Should I add lube?” the answer is always “Yes!” When playing with silicone toys, you must not used silicone or hybrid lube because the silicone oil inside it will over time destroy your toys. The surface with become porous and sticky. I recommend water-based lube. There are countless brands available and actually two fister can talk for hours why which lube is the best. You just need to try. For the training the lube consumption will be relatively moderate. Since all powder lubes used for fisting go bad quickly, you should buy large and thus economic bottles of lube. My personal recommendations are Elbow Grease H2O Thick Gel or ID Glide because it stays in place on the toy but ever ass is different so give it a try.

Relaxants and Aftercare Ointments

There are many relaxation sprays and gels or even numbing ones out there. Stay away from them! The numbing effect will dull the pain you feel and thus an important indicator if you can still push on a bit or have to stop immediately! Injuries coming from being too forceful can keep you from ever enjoying any from of anal sex forever! So it is not worth it.

Heavy training can lead to mini fissures or stress-induced pain inside the sphincter. This is completely normal. For aftercare I recommend using baby diaper rash cream with panthenol and zinc oxide to help the small wounds to close and calendula and either chamomile or sage for a soothing effect. Even when you are a masochist, I recommend to wait with proceeding with the training until you have no pain in the anus anymore. Otherwise problems can escalate.

And finally a necessary word on semi legal and illegal substances. I will neither recommend nor demonize them because people will be using them anyway. Like relaxation or numbing gels they can greatly impair you ability to notice something is wrong. So especially when training, using anything more than poppers and THC which is relatively safe is very dangerous! If you decide to use substances educate yourself about the short and longterm effects and especially safe use. Never use them alone and try them with an experienced person you trust. Discuss your limits before hand and do not move/ let yourself be pushed further than you are comfortable with when you are sober.
