Devilish Devices

Maker of luxury BDSM gear, costume, and fashion accessories

Designed for beauty and function with a gothic flair, my work is inspired by old world craftsmanship. I use traditional leatherworking tools and techniques to create functional pieces of art. Each item is meticulously handcrafted and held to a high standard of quality.

Superior Craftsmanship without compromise

I pride myself on the meticulous craftsmanship and exceptional quality of my leather BDSM, costume and fashion items alike. My commitment to superior craftsmanship ensures that each product not only meets but exceeds the expectations of my discerning customers.

I understand that these qualities are especially important as they pertain to my BDSM creations. Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or a curious newcomer to the world of BDSM, I understand the importance of comfort and durability in enhancing your experience.

Attention to Detail:

Each piece in my collection is crafted with the utmost precision, reflecting my dedication to not only the quality of leather and other materials, but the fine details that set my work apart. I source my leather from some of the finest tanneries in the United States, and render every detail by hand ensuring that each item is not only aesthetically pleasing but also resilient and long-lasting. This meticulous approach ensures that my leather BDSM items can withstand the rigors of intense play, providing reliable support and comfort while demanding attention.

Comfort and Safety:

I understand that comfort and safety are paramount in the realm of BDSM, where the experience should be both thrilling and safe. Our products are designed with the comfort of both the dominant and the submissive in mind. Soft, supple leather conforms to the body's contours, providing a secure yet gentle embrace. Adjustable straps and buckles allow for a customized fit, ensuring that each piece can be adjusted to individual preferences. My items are designed with prolonged use in mind. I also provide hardware options by request for those allergic, or sensitive to certain metals.

Durability:

Durability is a cornerstone of my design philosophy. My leather BDSM items are built to last, with reinforced stitching and high-quality hardware that can withstand significant tension and wear. This ensures that your investment in my products will provide many years of satisfaction. Each item undergoes rigorous quality control checks, ensuring that it meets my exacting standards before reaching your hands. Whether you’re engaging in light bondage or more intense sessions, you can trust that my products will maintain their integrity and performance over time.

Craftsmanship:

My dedication to craftsmanship extends beyond the functional aspects of our products. I believe that BDSM gear should be as beautiful as it is practical. Elegant designs, rich textures, and luxurious finishes make my leather items a pleasure to wear and use.

My Story

My name is Wade and I'm a leatherworker living in New England. As far back as I can remember, I've always had a passion for creating things. Whether it was music, drawing, making Halloween costumes & props, or some species of sculpture, I've always had a need to create, but it never felt like a viable means of survival until I discovered leathercraft.

At first, my focus was primarily on costume items, specifically the type of stuff you'd find at a Renaissance Faire, but that road eventually lead me into the realm of BDSM which is where I now primarily exist. It's funny how those two worlds overlap! With that in mind, you can clearly see how I've woven the two together in many of my designs.

I'm always on the lookout for new inspiration and evaluating my skill-set in an effort to generate new ideas and put a finer edge on my abilities as a craftsman. I hope you find something here that speaks to you.

The leather I use

I proudly use leather from some of the finest tanneries in North America, most notably:

- Hermann Oak (St. Louis, MO)

- Wickett & Craig (Curwensville, PA)

- Horween (Chicago, IL)

I use premium grade, full-grain vegetable tanned leather for most of my creations. This is the same type of leather commonly used in saddlery. It's rugged beauty and feel increases with use as it breaks in, becoming more pliable and developing a unique patina.

Testimonials

Perfection. Absolutely gorgeous collar. The Leather work is detailed and without flaw. It fits to my specifications, the stamping is fantastic, the inner leather feels like butter against the skin. The precision of the stitching, placement of the rivets, and even the details on the straps are perfect. It's worth every penny.

~Wade is a true craftsman. The product i received stands out in quality. Not only is this a superb product; the care that he took to make sure my order was fulfilled to my needs was meticulous. I will not hesitate to order again with him, and he deserves my every compliment with regards to this product, his service and his care.

I’ve gotten a couple of pieces from wade now. Each and everyone has been awesome and surpassed expectations. This one was a half formed idea that I had at 1am, by the end of the day wade translated it into a workable idea. He is a true craftsman.
Jake

This is a spectacular piece that just exudes quality & craftsmanship from every angle however, I'm unsure why it is advertised as "discrete" as it just comands attention(not complaining)! The quality, workmanship & attention to detail to say the least is outstanding. I have searched to the ends of the internet & back for a collar to present my sub for our collaring ceremony next month & this is it! Definitely not something out of a box or cheap quality from China. Wade has exceeded all of my expectations in communication, quality & it even arrived earlier than promised. IF YOU DON'T SHOP DEVILISH DEVICES THEN YOU ARE WASTING TIME & MONEY..IT'S YOUR LOSS!!
Thank You Wade for your time & pride in your work to provide myself & my sub with a piece that will do doubt be a crucial part of our everyday lives for many years to come!

The leather feels very comfortable against my skin; I can tell that this shop keeps quality as a top priority! The color is lovely too; the mahogany color was a nice decision, it strikes the perfect balance of being both understated and subtly eye-catching ;) The collar also has a nice weight to it that I like to feel when I’m wearing it. All in all, I’m super happy with purchasing it, and for sure will be back to buy from this shop! (Maybe I’ll even go out of my comfort zone and get something in purple or blue? Hmm..)

From start to finish, Wade was absolutely phenomenal.
I reached out to him because are the time constraint I have, while also requesting for a custom order, and he walked me through all the choices and the whole process.
I ordered two custom sizing and design collars and they arrived (SO FAST) bubble wrapped in a perfectly sized box.

There were no shortcuts taken in making it, even with how fast it arrived. The stitching if flawless, the Celtic knots perfectly overlap each other to make a seamless, perfect design.
The material is exceptionally high-quality, and it is obvious it is made with love. A lot of it. and it's so comfy! (Both day/play)
I have dealt with a lot of leather makers, but from the maker to the actual product, it has never been this seamless (haha, get it?)
I look forward to ordering more from Wade. :)
