Click for larger | For those of you who are aficionados of Japanese rope bondage, you already know the value of hemp rope. Previously, we didn't carry it as we couldn't get it to you at a price we liked. That has changed, and we are pleased to offer organic untreated hemp rope in three sizes. Our hemp is from organic stands, processed completely without chemicals (unlike the cheap Chinese rope which is so heavily processed that it looses all its wonderful properties). For those of you unfamiliar with hemp, it is the traditional bondage material of choice not only for the natural aspect of it, but for the effect on the bound individual. First, as an all natural product, hemp has a distinct odor. Earthy and grassy in smell (which slowly diminishes with age) it brings the sense of smell into the bondage scene. I can speak from experience of the unique aspects of having that odor slightly wafting from your body when you are taken out in public with a rope harness under your clothing. It is distinctly erotic. Hemp is also slightly course. Do not confuse it with Manilla rope, which is worse than sandpaper (and has its uses), but hemp does encourage the bound person to remain still, as constant struggling only will serve to make the binding less bearable. We offer all sizes (diameters) in a base 50 foot size. The ends of the rope have been whipped with twine to prevent fraying. You may choose a longer piece by adding additional feet to the base 50 foot length (the additional feet are at a discount). We will construct the length you desire, up to the maximum shown. If you want two 75 foot pieces, as an example, you have to sort of trick the shopping cart. Order two 50 foot sections, and then 50 feet additional. Use the comments box during check out to specify that you want it divvied up into two 75 foot sections. If you wish, we will include a pictorial diagram on how to whip the ends of rope, just ask. Try hemp just once, you'll probably never go back to nylon or cotton! |
