It is pretty comfortable, but if you're bigger, beware because it doesn't tighten up that well. Go smaller on it. I wish I had bought the smaller version.

I got the large. According to the chart I could have gone with either size and didn't have a problem tightening it for me, but smaller one might have worked for me too. I think it's very comfortable and it does stretch so probably the small would work for most who fit within that size waist range they recommend.

Maybe I'm old school, but I've long been a fan of the Terra Firma for sexual activities. I recently bought a very comfortable harness for packing, and it was fairly inexpensive. It's called the Undercover Harness on the babeland site. I pack with the Goodfella, and this harness works great, and is easily the most comfortable I've used. I took at a look at the Spareparts harness, but I prefer to, um...wear my balls outside the harness. The Spareparts harness doesn't really allow for that. But it did look really comfortable.

My harness is the Tera Firma, and I love it!

BullDog · 02-02-2010, 07:02 PM

I have the terra firma too. It's a great harness, but my new one is a lot more comfortable.

Old School Harness wearer too...Terra Firma - tight against the body and stays in place no matter what!

Are you using the vixskin Goodfella? I find it a bit to em, firm for everyday packing. Great for fucking , anal and blow jobs... not so much for packing. At least for me.

The shorts type harness Christie linked does allow for balls out.

Still looking for the perfect pack and play ( for me).

Do we have a fashion thread? Or can we use this space for that also?

Need to find some clothing sites that offer well rounded apparel. Casual, dress, etc for folks my age. I will wear some clothes that are fairly youthful, but at 46 , I don't tend to like a lot of today's styles.

"Pants on the ground, pants on the ground.. lookin like a fool with your pants on the ground"!

The girl says I need to stop shopping the clearance rack at Wally World or thrift stores... Any ideas folks?

We got some good deals at Mens Warehouse, and they didn't bat an eye that it was a Butch that wanted a suit for his wedding. Also got a really nice leather jacket and a cashmere pullover sweater there, the ties were off the hook, and by g-d they sell shoes in my size. They even had really nice shirts, all with custom tailoring. I highly recommend them.

hey jesse...i agree we need a fashion thread. i am 35 and when i shop for a little nicer casual clothing i go to structure for men. their clothes are geared for those who want to dress a little trendy...but they also have a good collection of more classic and essential clothes. and don't give up on the thrift stores...i always find good stuff there.

rlin · 10-05-2010, 05:17 PM

hey jess and chef...

here is a link to the butchwear thread...

http://www.butchfemmeplanet.com/foru...read.php?t=812

i get really damned tired of all the predictable butch wear too...
as for shopping tho... i end up with all the same tired stuff...
hell... i know i am getting old... been doing the madras thing lately... thinking too about starting to blouse and roll my sleeves... like gpa used to...
so... i know i gotta do somethin soon....
tho...i gotta admit... i do like a ducktail... and penny loafers... so... helll... maybe i will stay with my aesthetic... least til something better comes along...
i am personally glad it is winter... i can do a lot more with layers... that way i can just keep removing them until i feel like i am right for the room...

When I need "date clothes" I go to Uniqlo. Their "slim" shirts and pants fit well and look fancy, but are affordable. They also can alter clothes right in the store.
I think dressing up is fun but I hate to shop.

I don't pack 24/7, so it works ok for me, but I have found the tighter the boxer briefs while packing it, the, um, better.

And I hear you on still looking for the perfect pack and play.

Or the person who can figure out how to pack the Outlaw without it looking like a rolling pin in your pants! *grin*

Can you help a butch out? I've used the terra firma for years and always ben very happy with it. I've had a harder time finding a harness or strap to pack with. I'd like to check out the Undercover Harness mentioned here, but when I put toys in babeland in my search the freaking store doesn't come up. Can slomeone send me the link, either to the store or to this product?

Thanks!
