Bondage Mittens

Take a pair of ordinary tube socks, a pair of shorter “anklet” socks, and a roll of Duct tape.

Roll each anklet sock into a conical shape that is comfortable to grip in the center of a clenched fist.

While holding the small rolled sock in the fist, insert the hand into the larger full size tube sock. Pull sock up until hand is fully inserted.

Gently (without too much tension) wrap the hand (inside the sock) starting from the wrist and working smooth loops of tape over the entire exposed “bulb” of the hand. If necessary, use a single 8 inch strip over the top and back of the hand to cover the exposed rounded end. (This “back of the hand” strip can be applied first for greater security from tape tampering.)

Repeat with other hand.

Your sub is now VERY effectively incapacitated. The bulbous grip shape of the fist is too large to slip out of the improvised mitten, and the grip cannot be opened up to shrink effective size of the hand because of the shape of the encasement. The “grip sock” adds comfort and further complicates attempts to squirm out.

Attacking the tape overwrap with your teeth, or locating a sharp knife (which will be VERY difficult to use safely) are about the only way to escape these things… even when otherwise not restrained.

I have found that they can be worn for VERY long periods of time, so long as the overwrap is not so tight as to impede circulation. (A larger diameter grip sock helps with circulation by opening up the diameter of the grip.) Attempts to fight this bondage simply strain the muscles in the back of the wrist and hand and accomplish little or nothing!

The outer tape wrap can be secured against teeth in any number of ways, including:

1. Pull the extra length of the tube sock back down over the wrist and wrapped hand. (If the wrap was done right, you won’t be able to pull the “restraint sock” off this way without un-wrapping it first.) Knot, or secure closed in some other way (staples?, stitches?), the open end of the sock.
2. Secure the hands away from the mouth. (Given that the “victim” has no fingers to tamper with knots, this should be possible to do for even accomplished escape artists.)
3. Gag the subject. (This removes the use of the lips!)
