Alpha

About the Alpha range

Alpha does one thing: liquid silicone rings for the penis and testicles. Single rings include the Prolong series in Sexagon, Presmatic, Tread and plain cuts, plus the Commander, Optimum, Precision, Muscle, Erect and All Star rings. Lassos, both single and dual, are adjustable so you set the tightness yourself, and the Party Ring and Dual Party Ring are stretchy, bright and simple. For more coverage there are the Dual Ball Ring, Dual Magnum, Double Stacker, Tri-Ring, Teardrop Dual Ring, Beaded Rings and the Dual Cage and Ring, which wraps the shaft as well as the base. The Snug Tugger and Scrotum Ring sit behind the testicles. Several designs, including a Prolong Medium, Prolong Sexagon and a triple ring, come in glow-in-the-dark silicone. Pricing is entry-level across the board, with assorted multipacks offering the most variety for the money.

How to choose from Alpha

Start with how much you want the ring to hold.

• Gentle squeeze: a plain Prolong or Party Ring in soft silicone is comfortable for first-timers.
• Adjustable fit: the Lasso and Dual Lasso tighten gradually, which is useful if standard rings feel too loose or too tight.
• Shaft and balls together: dual, Magnum and cage designs separate and support both; they take a little practice to put on.
• Fun factor: glow-in-the-dark rings add novelty without changing the fit.

Never wear a ring for long stretches and take it off at once if it pinches or the skin changes color. A drop of water-based lubricant helps rings slide on. Compare the sister line at Alpha Pro or browse all male sex toys.
