    Ah, the eternal question: Does size matter?

    Well, when it comes to selecting the perfect chastity cage, the answer is crystal clear – size is everything!

    Imagine squeezing into a suit two sizes too small – uncomfortable, right? Similarly, an ill-fitting cage can lead to chafing, pinching, or worse, injury.

    So, as we embark on this quest for the perfect cage fit, we'll walk you through the steps to measure your member and ensure a match made in chastity heaven.

    The Anatomy of a Cock Cage

    A cage's anatomy can vary depending on its brand, material and design. To understand how to measure yourself for a chastity cage, it's essential to familiarise yourself with its components first.

    So before we go on to measuring, grab a seat and get ready for an important anatomy class as we take you through a quick rundown of some of the most important parts of the cage.

    • Base Ring: This encircles the base of the penis and the ballsack, providing support and stability for the cage.

    • Cock Cage: Designed to keep the penis flaccid and contained, ensuring the wearer's inability to achieve a full erection (or at least a pleasurable and comfortable one).

    • Gap: Often secured by pins, it's the space between the base ring and the cage, tailored to accommodate the natural positioning of the ballsack, ensuring the cage stays on.

    • Urination Opening: Makes urination and movement of the foreskin possible while also opening the doors for sounding while caged.

    • Lock: Symbolising the transfer of control, the lock is, in most cases, the most important and exciting part of the dynamic. The key to the cage is entrusted to a chosen keyholder, adding an element of thrill and anticipation.

    Getting Ready to Measure

    Before you begin, it is essential that your penis is in a completely flaccid state. Trying to measure while semi-erect, fully erect or shrivelled will lead to inaccurate measurements and result in you getting the wrong cage size.

    Find a comfortable, private space where you can focus without distractions. We recommend measuring while being in a room and temperature that you’re used to, as a too cold or hot room might affect the size and state of your penis.

    What You’ll Need:

    Now that we know what exactly we are measuring for and why it's so important, let's go to the tools we'll need to ensure a snug and comfortable fit:

    1. A non-elastic thick cord or string in a colour lighter than your marker
    2. Scissors
    3. Marker
    4. Steady ruler
    5. Somewhere to write the measurements results

    Step-by-Step Measurement Guide

    We know you're just as excited as we are to find your size, so let's get down to business!

    Measuring for the Back Ring

    • While standing, wrap the thick string around the base of your penis and testicles. It should be snug, but make sure you can still fit your little finger under the cord with tension.

    • Make sure the knot is tight enough but still easy to remove in case of an emergency. This is to make sure the knot will not loosen up with time, and you’ll end up with a measurement result that is too big.

    • Leave the cord on for at least 5 minutes. If possible, check if you can comfortably urinate while it’s still on.

    • Once you’ve had the cord on comfortably for 15-20 min or longer, use the marker to mark the position of the knot. Cut or untie the cord and place it next to your steady ruler to see the measurement. Always write the results down.

    If you experience any pain or discolouration, cut the cord off immediately. This means the string is too tight.

    Measuring for the Internal Cage

    Use the same process to measure the circumference of the base of your penis while flaccid at its thickest point to know your internal cage size.

    Measuring for the Cage Length

    Now, let's tackle the length of your cage. Find yourself a stable surface, like a trusty table, and position your completely flaccid penis alongside or on top of a flat, steady ruler.

    Carefully measure from the base to the tip, and remember, we're not trying to set any records here - so avoid pushing the ruler into your pubic region, as this might give you the wrong result.

    Getting this measurement spot-on is crucial. An incorrect length could leave you too cramped or with unwanted growing space between your penis and the cage, which defeats the purpose of this whole caged adventure.

    Repeat for Accuracy

    Fluctuations in temperature, hydration, and arousal levels can affect the size of your penis. So to ensure the most accurate measurements possible, we recommend measuring your penis at different times of the day over a few days.

    The Results

    Make sure you write down your measurements throughout the days and once you've gathered your data, calculate the circumference of your average size. Match the final result to the closest ring size available - and when in doubt, always round up.

    Are You Ready to Get Locked In?

    Once you have found your measurements, it's finally time to explore the different types of cock cages to find the perfect fit. Look for products that align with your dimensions or offer adjustable features for a customizable fit.

    With the right fit, you'll unlock a world of pleasure, anticipation, and fulfillment in the realm of male chastity. Happy measuring!
