Gas Masks

Gas masks in BDSM are repurposed military or industrial respirators used for sensory alteration and aesthetic effect. They cover most of the face, change breathing patterns, and create a distinctive visual appearance.

These masks restrict and alter breathing while creating distance between the wearer and their environment. The mechanical breathing sound and effort required can induce altered mental states. They're often used in medical play, objectification scenarios, or to enhance feelings of helplessness. Due to their effect on breathing, they require careful monitoring.

About the category BDSM Gear/Toys

BDSM gear and toys are specialized equipment designed to facilitate power exchange, sensation play, restraint, and other kink activities. These range from simple household items repurposed for play to elaborate purpose-built devices.

Different categories serve various functions: restraints limit movement, impact toys create pain or sensation, sensory deprivation tools alter perception, and insertable toys provide internal stimulation. Many items cross categories or can be used in multiple ways depending on the scene context.
