Massive Steve Ng Boot Sale Coming to LA on May 2

The following information is from CLAW:

Steven Ng was a true leather man from San Francisco who lived and breathed high-end boots for decades. He built an epic collection of 900 pairs and gifted dozens of men their all-time favorite pairs along the way. After his passing in 2025, his estate turned the entire remaining collection — boots plus racks of leather and uniform gear — over to CLAW. More than 300 bootmen have already scored from it, raising $43,000 for CLAW, Tom of Finland Foundation, Leather Archives & Museum, and CARAS Research.

This is your shot at the rest. For the first time ever, the full remaining collection goes on display at one single day sale with the lowest prices yet.

• Saturday, May 2, 2026 – Noon to 6PM

• Tom of Finland House

• 1421 Laveta Terrace, Los Angeles (Echo Park)

A bit more about Leo Ravenswood, who is arguably one of the most important male bondage erotic artists:

Mitchell of the popular Mitchmen site writes, “He covered the more exotic byways of bondage fetish such as pony training, lace up restraints and body bags, head harnesses and suspension … His captives are forced into restraining sleeves and made to adopt awkward positions which are both painful and humiliating.”

You can read Mitchell’s full write-up here.

Also check out the stories Bondage and Two Weeks in a Cage by Quandt, who says he was inspired by the bondage artwork of Leo Ravenswood. Back in the days before Twitter and Tumblr, Leo Ravenswood’s work was featured in magazines like Drummer and Bound and Gagged.
