The 9s Orange Is The New Black Riding Crop by Icon Brands

The 9s Orange Is The New Black Riding Crop by Icon Brands is a 20-inch impact toy designed for BDSM power play and sensation exploration. It features a supple leather handle paired with flexible crop material for controlled striking. This crop suits dominants and couples exploring impact dynamics together.

What you're getting

The 9s Orange Is The New Black Riding Crop by Icon Brands combines a moulded leather handle with flexible crop material engineered for controlled impact delivery. The 20-inch length gives you working range while the balanced weight prevents hand fatigue, letting you strike with precision from various angles. Unlike whips, which distribute force across multiple tails, a riding crop concentrates impact into a small tip area, creating a sharp, focused sensation.

The ergonomic leather handle responds to subtle grip changes, letting you modulate intensity simply by adjusting your hold pressure. The vibrant orange colour serves a practical function too — your partner sees it coming, building psychological tension before each strike. This crop is built for extended play without sacrificing control.

Setting up safely

Before your first scene, inspect the crop for loose seams or cracks in the leather handle. Test your grip in different hand positions to find what feels secure and comfortable. Start every session with a communication agreement with your partner — establish a clear safeword and discuss intensity limits beforehand. Begin with light teasing strokes to warm the skin, letting your partner adjust to sensation before moving to sharper strikes.

Target larger muscle groups like thighs, buttocks and shoulders rather than the spine, ribs or joints. Pay attention to your partner's breathing and body language — genuine arousal looks different from genuine distress. The flexible material in slappers behaves differently from a crop tip, so adjust your technique if you switch tools. Always allow recovery time after impact play and check your partner's skin for any unexpected marks.

Care and storage

Wipe the leather handle and crop material with a dry cloth after each use to remove any skin oils or moisture. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the vibrant orange colour over time. The leather will naturally mould to your grip and may develop a patina with use — this is normal ageing and improves tactile comfort. Avoid extreme heat or humid storage conditions that can warp the flexible crop material.

What to expect

The 20-inch length and lightweight balance mean you can strike from standing, kneeling or seated positions without repositioning constantly. Most people find the crop easier to control than longer whips, and the concentrated impact from the flexible tip produces a sharp sting that builds quickly. First-timers often underestimate how much sensation a small tip area creates — start lighter than you think and build from there.

The leather handle will feel slightly stiff initially, but softens noticeably within the first few sessions as your grip moulds it to shape. The flexible crop material responds directly to grip pressure, so even small changes in how firmly you hold the handle alter the intensity significantly. This responsiveness is what makes precision play possible, but it also means accidental wrist movements create unintended force changes.

Cleaning is straightforward — wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. The leather doesn't require conditioning unless you notice it drying out after months of storage. Most people find this crop reliable for years of regular use, though the handle leather will eventually show wear and develop character marks from use.

Those accustomed to paddles often find the crop's sharp sting quite different from deep thud sensations. Conversely, people exploring impact play for the first time sometimes find the psychological element — seeing the orange colour approaching — more intense than the actual sensation. This psychological component is part of what makes the crop effective, so lean into it rather than fight it.
