{"product_id":"strict-zip-front-bondage-hood","title":"STRICT Zip Front Bondage Hood","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe STRICT Zip Front Bondage Hood is a dual-layer sensory deprivation hood designed to strip away your submissive's sight while keeping them completely comfortable. The inner hood is crafted from a soft, stretchy, breathable fabric with built-in eye holes and nose breathing holes, meaning your partner can see and breathe freely until the moment you choose otherwise. Once the lightweight PU leather outer layer is zipped shut across the front, vision disappears and the intensity of objectification play rises sharply. A lace-up back panel lets you dial in a snug, secure fit across a wide range of head shapes and sizes, and all metal hardware is nickel-free, making it a considerate choice for those with sensitive skin. At 13 inches in overall length, 13.5 inches in width, and with an 18-inch neck circumference, this hood is built for extended sessions without sacrificing breathability or comfort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSTRICT Zip Front Bondage Hood features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-layer construction: breathable soft inner hood plus zip-close PU leather outer hood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInner eye holes and nose breathing holes ensure airflow even when fully zipped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZip-front closure removes vision on demand for staged sensory deprivation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLace-up back for a fully adjustable, customisable fit across many head sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft, stretchy inner lining reduces pressure on ears, nose, and temples\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLightweight PU leather exterior for a classic dungeon aesthetic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNickel-free metal hardware — suitable for sensitive skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with wrist cuffs, spreader bars, floggers, and other bondage accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications \/ Size \u0026amp; material\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 in \/ 33 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5 in \/ 34.3 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck circumference:\u003c\/strong\u003e 18 in \/ 45.7 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter material:\u003c\/strong\u003e PU leather (lightweight)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInner material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft, stretchy breathable fabric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nickel-free metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody safety:\u003c\/strong\u003e PU leather is non-porous on the outer surface; soft inner lining is skin-friendly and flexible — nickel-free hardware reduces risk of contact irritation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIntensity \u0026amp; Experience Level\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLevel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intermediate | \u003cstrong\u003eSensation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sensory-deprivation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe staged design — inner hood open for visual teasing, outer hood zipped for full blackout — means the experience can be introduced gently before escalating.
