Natural Rubber & Reality: Caring for Your Latex Nip Tips

Nip Tips are a "wearable," but they are also a consumable. Because we prioritize safety and sensation, we make them from natural latex. Here is why that matters and how to make them last.

Why Natural Latex? Synthetic rubbers can be harsh and unyielding. We produce natural latex Nip Tips because it has "memory"—it stretches incredibly well and rebounds to provide that perfect, "alive" grip. This comfort allows for hours of pleasure that plastic rings simply can't match.

Managing Limits Because they are natural, they have a breaking point.

• The 10% Rule: If you are breaking more than 10% of your tips on first use, you are likely stretching them too far or too fast.

• Lifespan: With regular rotation and proper care, a pair generally lasts a few months.

• Knowing the End: You will learn the limits of the material over time. They will stretch and eventually break—usually after they have served you well for many sessions.

Restocking Consider Nip Tips an essential part of your grooming kit, like razor blades. When they wear out, it means they’ve done their job.
