Best Strap-Ons In 2022
Spicing things up in the bedroom may take some time and experimentation, but if you’re looking for a good switcheroo in your relationship, then a strap-on harness can be your next best solution.
Maybe you’re looking to dominate your partner in ways that you could not before. Maybe you want to indulge in a little bit of roleplaying that requires the use of a dong. Maybe you’ve been pondering about getting out of your comfort zone to expand your toy collection, so that it may include something more than just a bullet vibrator.
Either way – pegging is on the menu.
But before you can strap on two dildos and go to town, there are some things to consider and learn about. Strap-on dildos can be an excellent addition to your kinky play, but they can also make for an unsatisfying experience at their worst, especially when handled without the proper know-how.
How Do Strap-ons Work?
To put it simply, a strap-on comes in two pieces: a harness and a dildo. The toy is typically attached to an O-ring – either non-detachable or swapped out – and can fit around the base of the dildo. Some harnesses come with built-in rings, whereas others you have to install yourself.
Other than that, strap-ons come in a wide range of options. There are strapless strap-ons, double-sided dildo products, full kit options, Vac-U-Lock systems, penis-compatible harnesses, and many more. Think of it in terms of an all-you-can-eat buffet, except the buffet is just filled with rows of strap ons that are ready to be used.
On a practical level, strap-ons work the way you want them to. There are no special features that have to be used in a specific way. Depending on the strap-on play you and your partner enjoy, there is a myriad of ways to have fun.
Whatever you do, keep in mind that copious amounts of lube should be applied. An 8-inch dildo may not be to everyone’s fancy at the outset and may take some getting used to by both parties.
Choosing the Right Strap On Harness
Aside from the basics, if you’re thinking about indulging in strap-on sex, you should probably learn some basics about strap-on harnesses. As with any other sex toy, they come in different style options.
Three-strap
This is a type of harness that is excellent for beginners. It’s worn around the waist and legs for maximum support, resembling a jockstrap. It’s very comfortable to wear, and the bands make a cozy nesting spot for a bullet, which can help you vibe things up between the pegging.
Two-strap
When you think of a strap-on harness, the first image that comes to mind is probably the two-strap style harness. It looks like a regular G-string, with one looped strap going between the legs and another around the waist. It’s less supportive of the body but works just as nicely.
Corset
If you’re a fan of aesthetics and function, then opt for a corset. These have always been designed with looks in mind. While it does use only two straps for support, the back typically sports an attractive design. It can also resemble something taken straight out of a medieval novel, so in that regard, you can live out more than one fantasy while you’re pegging.
Strapless
The name says it all – this is the type of strap-on that doesn’t require the use of any strap, but rather a whole lot of muscle to keep it pumping. One end goes inside the vagina, held in place by the user, while the other goes in for the peg. This is definitely not all that beginner-friendly unless you’re into daily Kegel routines.
Hollow
Hollow strap-ons are ones that can be used by penis wielders only. They wrap around the member so that there is no direct penetration. Of the two poles, the dildo is the one doing the entering. While it’s typically used for stamina training, it can also be a fun teasing addition to use with your partner.
Double-ended
On the other side, a double-ended strap-on is one that can only be used by vagina owners. The main goal is to please both parties at once, which is why it’s designed to enter two bodies at the same time. Usually, it comes with a light harness that is easily adjustable, so that it provides maximum comfort during penetration.
Rope
This is for the more advanced users and involves some DIY work. Just wrap the dildo with rope, strap yourself in and go to pork. While it’s definitely a fidgety option, it allows for a lot more customization than any pre-made products out there.
How to Pick a Strap-On
Aside from picking the dildo that you think would be most comfortable on your partner, strap-ons come in all shapes and sizes. You can opt for a harness set, an adjustable harness, a vibrating strap, or anything in between that can pleasure you and your partner. The only thing to consider is how compatible each harness will be with the potential dildo.
The Lovehoney Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On Harness Kit
First-time peggers who wish to get into the world of strap-on sex toys need not look any further!
This five-inch dildo is the perfect introduction to pegging, sized so that it can be used for both anal penetration and vaginal play. The harness is easy to put on and use and includes three interchangeable O-rings that can be combined with other toys if you want a size up from the dildo it comes with.
Another bit of good news is that the back of the harness is designed to hold a bullet vibrator in case you want to indulge in some quality vibes. Just remember to use a generous helping of lube to make the experience a little sleeker for both partners!
The Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-on Harness Kit
For those seeking a bigger thrill – or, in other words, a dildo packing a few more inches – this advanced Lovehoney kit may be what you’re looking for.
Fair warning, the dildo that this harness comes with is definitely on the bigger side, hence the ‘advanced’ of the name. However, both jock briefs and the harness are adjustable, which makes for a customizable experience during your playtime. It has three interchangeable rings as the Beginner’s Unisex Strap-On Harness Kit, meaning you can use a smaller dildo if you can’t handle too many inches at once. And it’s machine washable for easy clean-up!
Moreover, this harness also has a pocket for any added toys you may want to have fun with.
The AcmeJoy 6.7-inch Remote Hollow Strap-on
Men who want to extend their stamina while simultaneously satisfying their partner can take to hollow strap-ons – specifically this one by AcmeJoy. It comes at 6.7 inches and is strapped to an underwear-style harness that will allow for a hands-free experience.
What’s more, this bad boy comes with a whole lot of vibrations. So while you get your partner’s G-spot (or P-spot) pleasured, you can also add in a little something extra for the both of you in the form of a nice buzz – from as far away as ten meters, mind you.
The AcmeJoy 7.9-Inch Wearable Remote Control Dildo
If you’re aiming for something more realistic than good old-fashioned colored silicone, this realistic-looking dildo is sure to tickle your pickle. And while it may look unassuming at first, it’s designed to pack quite the punch.
Vibrating dildo? Check. A warm cuddle? Check. Looking for a stretch? Check.
It’s a triple threat. Not only does it include 8 frequency vibration settings, but it’s also equipped with heating glads that can warm up the inside of an orifice to 38 degrees Celsius. Because of its size, it’s also perfect for partners who want that ‘stretching’ feel during penetration. To top it all off, the harness is also adjustable, which means you can take turns using it – at the price of one!
The Lovehoney Double Fun Vibrating Rabbit Strap-on
Double penetration has never been easier than with this double-trouble toy. Lovehoney has deemed this a ‘pleasure picnic’ because of the number of accessories and features that come with it.
Starting off with the triple-function dildo, it comes in a realistic design, measuring 8 inches, and with a pair of balls to complete that ‘real feel.’ Underneath is a strapped 6-inch silicone dildo with a clitoral stimulator similar to a rabbit vibrator, which tops both toys for added clitoral pleasure. These are combined together in one device, and to make matters even more exciting, the product even includes two bullet vibrators with two vibration speeds and five patterns.
The only downside is that it doesn’t come strapped to a harness, so an extra investment in a harness (or a DIY creation) of your choice is necessary.
The AcmeJoy 6.2-Inch Slender Glans Strap-on
Monster hunters across the world can simply marvel at the purple dildo that comes with this strap-on harness kit. It looks like it burst out of an Alien movie, so for those that prefer to add a tinge of color (and maybe mysticism) to their sex lives, this may be just the harness set to try.
The dildo measures 6.2 inches and carries a ‘realistic’ feel, with several veins popping out from the shaft – alongside a very bright purple color for some mystery. The harness is a G-string style strap that is adjustable and can wrap nicely around different body sizes.
Moreover, because of the tapered end on the dildo, it can be used for either vaginal or anal penetration.

The LoveHoney Triple Strap-on Kit
A range of dildos is typically not part of the features that a strap-on harness includes. But this one does!
In fact, not only does this harness come with adjustable straps for more body versatility, but with three whole dildos for some seriously sexy fun. The dildos come in three sizes – a 6-inch dildo, a 6-inch dildo with a girthier circumference, and an 8-inch dildo as the biggest member of the band. All come included with the strap-on harness.
All best strap ons are designed with a tiny bullet pocket, and this one is no different, it is a small pouch in the back that can hold any small sex toy meant for giving off some extra buzzes during the kinky session.
The AcmeJoy Pink Panther Strap-on Harness
Vulva-owner partners that are seeking out pleasure while pleasuring can often find it difficult to experience double-ended penetration without some serious effort. However, this ‘Pink Panther’ set seems to have come to the rescue – with some bright red leather straps that are equally as eye-catching as the matching colors of the two dildos they come with.
The kit has been made with female users in mind since both parts are positioned to penetrate two vaginas. Instead of just one person, two people can do the thrusting – both receiving equal amounts of pleasure while doing so. The two dildos are 5.3 inches and 4.3 inches respectively and fit like gloves.
The harness is machine-washable as the Lovehoney Advanced Unisex Strap-on Harness Kit, and the two dildos are super easy to clean, giving you and your partner a lot of wiggle room for all kinds of naughty surprises!
The Lovehoney Double Fun Vibrating Beaded Strap-on
Beads, meet dildo. Dildo, meet beads.
Those exploring the backdoor can rest easy – one can do it blindly with this Lovehoney creation. It’s a double-penetration unisex strap-on harness that comes with an 8-inch cock and balls dildo, joined by a 6-inch beaded shaft that holds a bullet vibrator on top of both sex toys.
In essence, the two allow for both double-pegging and double-penetration, with a nice buzz coming from the bullet, which has two vibration speeds and five vibration patterns for a more varied thrill.
Conclusion
While a strap-on sex toy is traditionally used to give people without penises a chance at penetration, that doesn’t have to mean that shaft-wielders can’t have fun too. The wonderful world of sex toys has made it possible for all kinds of harness creations, dildo inventions, and accessory additions to become features of the classic style and look of a harness.
The best strap-on harness is one that allows for enough flexibility and adjustability so that anyone can use it. However, if you’re in the market for a specific look and features, there are countless options, ranging from a vibrating harness, different-material straps, double-ended and sided toys, strapless strap harness inventions, and ones with rings that can fit a wide array of dildos.
Strap on for the ride, add a lot of lube, and pound away!
