Black Wetlook Jockstrap with Rings for Men - Ares 2

The raw jockstrap, in wetlook and ready to be harnessed

No fishnet here, no frills: the Ares 2 jockstrap (Ares II) from Anaïs for Men goes straight to the point. A pouch in black wetlook-effect fabric, a wide black elastic waistband with the ANAIS logo and lion heads, two elastic straps that run under the cheeks, and two metal rings at the front to clip on the brand's Axel harnesses.

It's the most minimalist piece in the Ares range, and probably the most fetish: satin black over your bulge, a completely bare butt, and those two rings that hint the night won't stop there.

Its strong points

Wetlook where it counts. All the material is concentrated on the pouch: a leather-effect black that catches the light and traces the shapes. Contoured and stretchy, it wraps and supports without squeezing.

A 100% free butt. The two elastic straps start from the waistband, run under your butt and lift it visually, without covering a single centimetre.

Two rings that change everything. Fixed to the front of the waistband, they take the carabiners of the Axel 2 and Axel 3 harnesses. The jock becomes the base of a complete harnessed outfit that doesn't budge all night.

Minimalism that goes with everything. Black, compact, no pattern: it slips under any trousers and goes with any fetish piece in your wardrobe.

A waistband that holds. Wide and elastic, it keeps the jock in place, whether you're dancing or on all fours.

On the sex appeal side

The jockstrap is already one of the strongest codes in gay culture. In wetlook, it tips clearly over to the fetish side: the leather effect evokes leather without the heat or the stiffness of the real thing, and the rings recall the harness world.

Worn with an Axel harness clipped on at the front, it draws a complete silhouette: lines that start from the shoulders, converge on the waistband and draw every eye to the same place. From behind, nothing but straps and skin. Everything is said, nothing is hidden.

How to wear it

At a fetish club, a leather party or the sauna, with a harness, high sports socks or combat boots.

At Pride, with a harness and open shorts, or under a kilt if you dare.

Under jeans, day to day: it's thin, it doesn't show, and you know what you're wearing.

In bed, you keep it on: rear access stays free from start to finish.

Choosing the right size and putting it on

• Sizes: the Ares 2 jockstrap is available in XXL and 3XL.
• Between two sizes? The smaller one holds more firmly, the larger one leaves more ease for long wear.
• The straps sit under the fold of your cheeks, not on the top of your thighs.
• Dry skin: the wetlook slides better and doesn't stick.
• With a harness: put on the jock, then the harness, and clip the carabiners to the rings last.

Care

Hand wash in cold or lukewarm water, with a mild soap or a detergent for delicate fabrics. Press the fabric in the water without rubbing or wringing it: the fishnet and the wetlook coating don't like rough treatment.

If you use the machine, a laundry bag is a must, delicate cold cycle, minimum spin, and nothing with hooks or zips in the same drum: the wide-mesh fishnet snags easily.

Never any heat. No tumble dryer, no radiator, no iron: the wetlook loses its shine and the elastane its stretch. Dry flat, in the open air.

No bleach and no fabric softener: softener leaves a film that dulls the wetlook. After a night out, rinse it the same evening rather than leaving it rolled up in a bag, and dry the metal rings.

FAQ — Your questions, our answers

Q: What's the difference from the Ares jock bikini?

A: The jock bikini keeps fishnet sides and a brief front, with a cut-out back. The Ares 2 jockstrap is more stripped back: a wetlook pouch, a waistband and two straps, no fishnet.

Q: Can I wear it without a harness?

A: Of course. The two rings then stay a discreet fetish detail on the waistband. They come into their own with an Axel 2 or Axel 3 harness, sold separately.

Q: Does the wetlook stick to the skin?

A: On dry skin, no. It can cling a little after moisturiser or on damp skin: put it on before you moisturise.

Q: Which sizes are available?

A: The Ares 2 jockstrap is available in XXL and 3XL in the shop.
