DOMINIX Deluxe Leather Racerback Harness

Straight out of the box, I noticed that the leather and overall build quality of this product was really good!! The leather is very soft and flexible with no sharp edges. Both the inside and outside faces of the leather are very soft to the touch, so comfortable both to wear and to feel someone else wearing.

I was really impressed by how adjustable the fit of this harness is. For reference, I'm a women\s UK size 20 and it was still able to comfortably fit me (although only just - I wouldn't recommend this to anyone larger). The cross-body strap is also adjustable independently of the two shoulder ones, which I found very useful as my shoulders are smaller in comparison to my torso, so I was able to adjust everything to get a good fit! There are a lot of holes in the straps too, so I would say this would fit anyone up to a women's size UK 20 (not sure what the inches equivalent of that is!).

This harness is very comfortable to wear, as mentioned before. The leather is very soft and flexible, and I didnt experience any skin-nipping from any of the joints or hardware. The straps are fairly wide and really help to hold everything in place (to the point where my posture was much better wearing this than without lol). When properly adjusted, the harness is also very comfortable when used as a handle to move you around. I haven't worn this for a very extended amount of time, but wear for a couple of hours was very comfortable, so I imagine that the same would be true for even longer.

Visually, the harness is really nice. Both me and my partner agree that it is very sexy and frames everything nicely! Obviously it depends on your personal style, but I would totally wear this as an accessory over clothing (the fact that it is so comfortable is a factor in that too!).

This harness is really great, especially for the price! Very comfortable and sexy, highly recommend!

I received this today having been gifted it by Lovehoney in exchange for an honest review (thanks folks!), and while it's not something I necessarily would have chosen to buy I'm very pleased with it.

Frankly, I didn't expect to like it from a personal taste point of view as it's not my typical style, but once I'd put it on I really loved how it looked and felt.

It sits well on the musculature of my back and the bottom of the chest straps aren't fixed to the lower strap, meaning you can slide them along it into the best place for your body shape. The retaining loops after the buckles for the ends of the straps can also be moved along the harness so you can keep it neat and tidy, and they're well made too - riveted which is great as stitched can often be itchy on bare skin.

I'm impressed with the sizing options. For context, I'm approx a 5'6 size 8 with a 34-inch chest (ribcage not breasts) and it could fit a much smaller or larger person than me. The lower strap (the one that circles your body) has a total of 14 holes spaced about an inch apart, I use the 9th from the largest fitting for super comfortable free movement. The side/chest straps each have 8 holes with the same spacing, I'm using the second smallest to sit right under my breasts. It's great to see the size diversity in this piece; far too often even only slightly bigger than average bodies are excluded.

I love the O-rings, they're big enough to be a bit of a statement but not so big they get in the way or sit uncomfortably. Also, a great place to attach a leash if you're so inclined and want a change from the standard collar setup. Think they'll make good tie points for bondage/shibari too, either for the wearer or to be bound to/with another person, or for a hook.

I love that it can be used similarly to a belt in that I can clip things to it - very handy for play parties when you're not in street clothes but wish to keep your water and accessories close while keeping your hands free. ;)

I can see it pairing very well with a waist belt, and because the design is clean and simple it shouldn't be difficult to match to things. I'm envisioning a fishnet steampunk outfit in my immediate future!

I love that it's agendered - most chest harnesses like this are marketed towards men and it's lovely to see one aimed at all genders.

The build quality is good, particularly for the price. The only thing I have to say about it that's less than glowing is the cut edges of the leather could be neater; they're straight and well-cut, they just have some very small fluffy strands here and there, but it's not enough of a thing to be a real drawback for me.

The packaging though... It arrived in a clear plastic non-resealable bag, not the most appealing or environmentally conscious - postage packaging is easily recyclable so it's obviously thought about at Lovehoney, I'd really love to see product packaging go the same way please.

Overall I'm very impressed and can't wait to wear it to a party. If it's possible I'll update this after that when I know how it wears for hours on end while out and active, but I think it'll be comfortable for long wear and play.
