The ball gag is the most effective toy to keep your sub’s mouth occupied while you have your way with them. However, many may not be comfortable wearing just any ball gag, which is why we recommend trying the breathable ball gag. The model has holes through which the sub can breathe easily; this helps the wearer to overcome the psychological fear of suffocation while wearing a ball gag. We’ve tested and rated the best breathable ball gags available in our store, and we’re sharing our findings with you here.

Key Things to Know About Breathable Ball Gags
Just like the regular ball gags, the breathable ball gags are fun to use and are a critical part of most BDSM scenes. We have a complete guide on how to choose a ball gag, where we cover all the essential aspects to know when looking to buy one for yourself, so here we only cover the basics you need to know about breathable ball gags:
- Ball Size – The ball size is essential because this part goes into the mouth, between the teeth. Most ball gags have ball diameters of 1.2 to 3 inches, so you can find a model that fits your needs and experience level.
- Ball Material – We always recommend sticking to body-safe materials, as you can find breathable ball gags made from silicone, rubber, and ABS or PVC plastic.
- Head Strap – The strap, made from leather, faux leather, silicone, or elastic, holds the device around the head. We recommend you take a look at the closing mechanism, as you can find metal buckles, Velcro, snap closures, or full elastic straps.
