CalExotics Euphoria - Multi-chain cross-back harness, nickel-free

Metal chains and a cross back replace the single strap of the halter models here. It is also the only model in the range for which the manufacturer states nickel-free metal accents, which matters for skin that reacts to it. The CalExotics Euphoria Multi-Chain Harness keeps the vegan leather, the velvet lining, the double padding and the double stitching, and is cut for standard sizes.

Why choose this model?

• Nickel-free accents: the only one in the range to state it, which makes it the only documented option where an allergy exists.
• Cross back: the structure spreads the hold across the shoulders instead of loading it all on the neck.
• Metal chains: weight and sound are part of the effect, which no strap reproduces.
• 364 grams: a hundred grams more than a halter model, a clearly noticeable difference to wear.
• Buckle closure: the setting comes back from one wear to the next despite the more complex structure.

How to use it

1. Check the dimensions on arrival: the manufacturer publishes no measurement on this model, unlike the halter versions.
2. Put it on over the head before adjusting the buckles, since a cross back seats badly the other way round.
3. Spread the hold between both shoulders, without letting one chain carry most of the weight alone.
4. Keep a finger's clearance under each strap and check no chain pinches skin at a crossing point.
5. Remove at the first numbness, and never keep it on during sleep.

The plus-size version repeats exactly the same model; the halter harness does without chains and publishes its dimensions. See also our article on desire and our materials guide.

Care and precautions

Vegan leather wipes with a barely damp cloth, with no immersion and no heat. Dry the chains immediately after any contact with moisture and store them flat, without tangling into anything else: a knotted chain unpicks badly and damages the leather as it pulls. The manufacturer publishes no dimension on this model, which makes checking on arrival essential. A chain pinching at a crossing point is repositioned, not forced.

Frequently asked questions

What are its dimensions?

The manufacturer does not publish them, unlike the halter harnesses in the range. Check on arrival.

Does the metal contain nickel?

No, the accents are stated nickel-free. It is the only model in the range to specify this.

How does it differ from the plus-size version?

The cut only. Neither publishes a numerical measurement.

Do the chains make noise?

Yes, that comes with this kind of structure. The halter harness is the discreet choice in the range.

How is it cleaned?

A barely damp cloth on the vegan leather, immediate drying of the chains, stored flat.

SoPigalle tip: store it hanging on a hanger rather than folded in a drawer. Chains mark vegan leather when the harness stays compressed, and those marks do not come out.
