Gear Acquires JIMsupport and LeatherStock, Launches Fetish Locker

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Gear Leather and Fetish Acquires JIMsupport and LeatherStock™; Forms Fetish Locker, Inc. 

Palm Springs, CA – May 15, 2014

Gear Leather and Fetish announced today that it has acquired the JIMsupport brand of portable steel BDSM furniture and eScents Of, LLC, the maker of LeatherStock™ premium leather scented products. It has consolidated all three businesses under a new corporate entity, Fetish Locker, Inc. 

“It’s a huge honor to have been chosen to carry on the legacies of two such well-known and popular gay men’s fetish brands,” said Fetish Locker President and CEO John McBain. “We look forward to serving their existing fans as well as bringing both lines to the broader kink/fetish/BDSM marketplace.” 

Founded in 2005, Gear Leather & Fetish has delighted kinky shoppers with its sexy, contemporary environment and exclusive, curated collection of fine fetish goods. Owners McBain and Ken Blochowski look forward to bringing the qualities which have made their retail store so successful—extensive personal product knowledge, attentive customer service and strong management backgrounds—to the newly formed venture.

Already the duo has implemented manufacturing practices which have increased JIMsupport’s quality and efficiency, enabling them to reduce prices on almost every item within the line. In addition, they’ve committed to a new, always-in-stock policy for both brand’s core items, shipping most retail and wholesale orders within twenty-four hours of receipt. 

Over the next year, customers can expect re-imagined online shopping experiences, exciting new and improved products, and enhanced merchandise availability through new retail partnerships worldwide. 

JIMsupport and LeatherStock have been two of our favorite vendors for years,” said Ken Blochowski, Fetish Locker Vice President and Marketing Director. To be able to re-launch these brands and share our love for them with new audiences is a dream come true.”

New Puppy Cage

Have you seen our new puppy cage? It’s $100 less than previous models because we’ve found a new local manufacturer who can offer the same quality at a lower price! 

Looking for something custom? Because of our great relationships with an amazing group of craftsmen, we can have virtually any kind of play furniture built to your exact specifications. We consign high quality used equipment too!

The World's Most Comfortable Sling

Ever since we first discovered Buddy's Slings, we knew that we had to carry them. In fact, we've never kicked back in a more comfortable sling!

Made of two layers of Marine Grade Canvas (the same material used for boat covers), they resist moisture, grease and stains and clean up easily with a simple hose-down. Two layers of seat belt webbing are fused together to create the straps which connect them to your chains or to Buddy's amazing adjustable rigging system (sold separately).

It's a super-special present for the discerning ass-player, but isn't that what the Holidays are for?

Available in red, blue, gray and army camo, and only in the Palm Springs store.

Ruff Pig Sling Stand

This sling stand is so awesome that a famous online pig store re-branded it as its own and debuted it at this year's IML—where it sold out in record time! Before that happened, however, the original product run was made available to a few select retailers (like us!) and we were able to score three. We believe that we're the only brick-and-mortar store anywhere that has any left, and when they're gone, they're most likely gone for good! 

Ruff Pigs are built by kinksters in the back room of a world-famous off-road racing parts fabricator. They're made of strong, lightweight 16 gauge steel tubing that's been powder coated in sexy black, so they don't rust or tarnish like other sling frames.  They're also taller than most, so you have more room to play, plus they have eight restraint points so you can also use 'em for bondage! They assemble in less than five minutes, and thanks to their tight, precision fit and adjustable feet, there's less shaking when you're ass-up and ready to get plowed!

Walk out with your very own Ruff Pig for only $299, which is WAY LESS than the online direct-shipped price.

Ruff Pigs are exclusively available in the Palm Springs store.
