Hey everyone! I recently got into harness fashion, but I’m finding them a bit uncomfortable to wear for long periods. Anyone have tips on making harnesses feel more comfortable, especially if they’re leather or have buckles that dig in?

Hey! I totally get that—harnesses, especially leather ones like the leather garter belt https://obsessharness.com/leather-garter-belt/ can sometimes feel a bit uncomfortable with long wear. One tip is to adjust the straps to ensure they’re not too tight, as this can help prevent digging. You can also wear a thin, soft layer underneath, like a tank top or light fabric, to reduce friction. If the harness has buckles, try adjusting them to a looser fit or opting for a style with more flexible straps for a more comfortable experience.
Definitely agree with conditioning the leather! I’d also recommend looking into harnesses made with softer materials like neoprene or even ones with padded straps. They look stylish and are so much easier on the skin. Another tip: avoid wearing it directly on bare skin, if possible. Even a thin layer underneath can make a big difference.
