Looks like this pair of Street Cuffs totally failed! The slave who was ankle chained here escaped!

For guys who like to get tied up, New York City has a lot to offer. There’s the New York Bondage Club, the annual Folsom Street East block party, The Eagle (and GREGORY!), Gay Pride — not to mention my cage. Today we return to the ‘Metalbond A to Z’ series with a tribute to New York City.
