MUZZLES

Muzzles do a lot of the same things as a standard gag and more. Not only can they be used to keep the wearer (relatively) quiet, but they transform the face as well, revealing aspects of their personality they keep tucked away in polite company. From a sinister, skull-like visage to an adorable puppy or pony, a well-made muzzle can bring a whole new feeling into your scene. 

As always, we recommend that Dominants keep a careful eye on the sub's breathing while they're muzzled and to arrange a non-verbal safe signal.

TYPES OF BDSM MUZZLES

This collection includes a wide range of BDSM muzzles designed for different dynamics and aesthetics. Some are built purely for restraint and control, while others lean heavily into roleplay and visual transformation.

Dog muzzles and K9 hoods are favorites for pet play, encouraging headspace through posture, limited speech, and obedience cues. Pony-style muzzles and bridles create a more elegant, performative look that pairs beautifully with pony play scenes. More severe leather and rubber muzzles strip away expression entirely, replacing it with something stark, anonymous, and commanding.

SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS

Muzzles restrict more than just speech — they can affect breathing, temperature regulation, and communication. Because of this, they should always be used with care and constant supervision.

Before any scene, establish a clear non-verbal safe signal such as dropping an object, tapping repeatedly, or using a hand squeeze. Check fit carefully: a muzzle should be secure without pressing into the throat or restricting airflow. Never leave a muzzled partner unattended, and avoid extended wear until you understand how their body responds.

Hydration, breaks, and aftercare are essential, especially in longer or more intense scenes.

WHY BUY MUZZLES FROM THE STOCKROOM?

The Stockroom has been designing, manufacturing, and curating BDSM gear for over 30 years. Many of the muzzles you see here are crafted in our Los Angeles workshop, where we obsess over fit, durability, and comfort — even when the goal is strict control.

Unlike novelty gear, our muzzles are built for real scenes, real dynamics, and repeated use. Materials are chosen for strength and wearability, hardware is reinforced, and designs are informed by decades of feedback from kinksters, educators, and professionals.

When you buy a muzzle from The Stockroom, you’re not just buying an accessory — you’re investing in gear that understands the balance between fantasy, safety, and authority.

FAQs

What is a BDSM muzzle used for?

A BDSM muzzle is used to limit speech, shape behavior, and visually transform the wearer. It’s often incorporated into pet play, power exchange, and humiliation or obedience-based scenes.

Can you breathe while wearing a muzzle?

Yes — when properly designed and fitted. High-quality muzzles allow for airflow while still restricting speech. Always monitor breathing closely and remove the muzzle immediately if there is any distress.

Are muzzles safe for beginners?

Some simpler muzzles can be appropriate for beginners, especially those without integrated gags or heavy coverage. Start slowly, keep scenes short, and prioritize communication and supervision.

What’s the difference between a muzzle and a gag?

A gag primarily restricts speech, while a muzzle also alters appearance and headspace. Muzzles often engage psychological elements like identity, roleplay, and submission in ways a standard gag does not.

How do I choose the right muzzle?

Consider your scene goals first: visual transformation, silence, pet play, or humiliation. Then factor in material, fit, and any other bondage restraints you plan on incorporating into your scene. When in doubt, start simpler and build up.
