Collection: BDSM Chokers & BDSM Collars – Vegan Gothic Jewelry for Your Dark Style

A BDSM choker is more than just a collar – it's a powerful symbol of trust, belonging, and individual identity . Within BDSM culture, the choker often represents a consciously chosen role, an emotional connection, or a form of personal expression. At the same time, the BDSM choker has long since established itself as a stylish accessory that combines eroticism, aesthetics, and self-confidence.

In our BDSM Choker category, you'll find a carefully curated selection of collars that are both functional and visually appealing. The designs range from subtle and elegant to striking and expressive – ideal for different preferences, roles, and experience levels. In EASURE's Fetish & BDSM Choker category, you'll find vegan and sustainable collars that express your kink, your role, and your gothic style. Whether classic, elegant, or eye-catching: a BDSM choker underscores your personality and makes a clear statement. Many models are intentionally designed to be worn discreetly in everyday life or intensely in a BDSM context . From minimalist collars to chokers with O-rings or decorative details:
Our selection offers suitable BDSM chokers for dominance and submission role-playing games , fashion statements, or as part of an individual fetish look.

A BDSM choker sits tightly on your neck, the O-ring rests against your larynx, the metal shimmers in the club lights – and in an instant, it's clear: this isn't "normal" jewelry speaking; this is about attitude, desire, and identity. In our Fetish & BDSM Choker category at Easure, you'll find collars that speak precisely this language: raw, honest, erotic, gothic. Buy BDSM chokers at Easure: scene, attitude, sustainability – here you'll find your new BDSM collar, whether as a day collar, submissive collar, or dominant choker with spikes.

What a BDSM choker expresses for you

A fetish or BDSM choker has an immediate effect. It frames your face, accentuates your neck, and sends a clear signal in any scene, club, or session.

A BDSM collar can represent for you:

• visible sign of submission or dominance
• subtle hint at your fetish preferences
• timeless BDSM accessory with meaning
• Part of your Gothic outfit that completes the overall look
• Symbol of belonging and bonding in a D/s relationship (Day Collar, Slave Collar)

Many wear their fetish choker as a day collar – a discreet design, but a clear statement for those in the know. Others choose a wide SM collar with eyelets, spikes, or a heavy O-ring, which sets the tone during sessions and at fetish parties.

It's important to understand that a BDSM choker is not coercion , but always a sign of voluntary choice and mutual consent . Many wearers find wearing one empowering, identity-forming, or calming.

If you're looking for a vegan, waterproof model, take a look at our BioThane O-ring chokers in the EASURE Choker BioThane category. There you'll find styles that combine understated aesthetics, gothic style, and functionality.

Meanings: From choker to fetish necklace

Beyond their symbolic meaning, BDSM chokers have long since established themselves as a fashion accessory . Clean lines, high-quality materials, and minimalist designs make them versatile and easy to combine with a variety of outfits – from streetwear and elegant looks to alternative fashion.

Simple BDSM chokers made of faux leather, velvet, or metal are often worn independently of any erotic context. They lend outfits a bold touch and represent self-confidence, individuality, and style. A slim black choker might appear in streetwear, while a heavy BDSM choker is typically found in fetish clubs. Visually similar, but symbolically on a different level.

What does a choker generally mean?

A choker is a close-fitting neckband. Materials range from satin to leather, from metal to BioThane. In the Gothic and BDSM scenes, the choker quickly acquired an erotically connoted role.

• Proximity to the "collar" as with a dog or slave
• Emphasis on the neck and throat – a sensitive, vulnerable zone
• Clear reference to dominance and submission

What does a tight collar mean for women?

If a woman wears a very tight collar or a striking SM choker with a ring, this can express the following in the scene:

• Submissive role : O-ring at the front, simple, heavy design
• D/s bond : Day Collar instead of "just jewelry"
• Fetish statement : She expresses a desire for bondage, control, kink

Important: Consent is also crucial in the BDSM world. A choker is not a substitute for communication. You decide what meaning your BDSM choker holds for you and your partner.

BDSM choker at Easure: Fetish meets Gothic aesthetics

Easure comes from the Gothic scene, not from the mainstream erotic trade. Our fetish and BDSM chokers therefore go well with ripped fishnet tops, corpse paint, and dark art prints.

In our Fetish Choker category, you'll find models that are visually inspired by classic bondage gear while still harmonizing with the rest of your Gothic clothing . All chokers are intentionally unisex. Complete your look with our Gothic necklaces from the Gothic Necklaces category or with striking Gothic rings from the Gothic Rings category if you want to further enhance your outfit.

Typical designs in the BDSM choker category at Easure:

• O-ring choker – classic slave style, ideal for linen
• Spiked Choker – studs, spikes, dome/switch vibes
• Wide fetish collars – more presence, stronger visual submission
• Minimalist Day Collar – simple look, clear meaning for you

Our organic cotton Gothic shirts from the Gothic Shirts category or statement designs like our Baphomet design in the product The Demon Angel Shirt go well with this.

Overview of materials: Leather, BioThane, PU synthetic leather

For a BDSM choker, it's not just about looks. Durability, comfort, and ease of care determine whether your collar will withstand sessions, sweat, and club nights. Quality and comfort are our top priorities for our BDSM chokers. The models are made from durable materials such as faux leather, genuine leather, metal, velvet, or high-quality textiles . Soft inner surfaces, sturdy closures, and adjustable sizes ensure that the choker fits securely without pinching.

Many of our BDSM chokers are suitable for both short sessions and longer wear. This makes them versatile – whether as a symbolic collar, a stylish fashion accessory, or as part of an individual BDSM outfit.

Choosing a SM choker: style, function, symbolism

There are three levels to consider when choosing an SM choker : style, practical use, and meaning. If you're just starting out with BDSM or Gothic fetish aesthetics, a simple, more affordable fetish collar made of PU leather is often sufficient. For intensive use and sessions, investing in a robust BDSM collar made of leather or BioThane is worthwhile.

1. Style: How much fetish do you want to show?

Consider the context in which you wear your BDSM choker:

Everyday life / Office / University

• discreet, narrow collar
• understated hardware (small ring, no massive D-ring)
• dark, solid-colored materials

Club / festival / gothic party

• conspicuous spikes, O-rings or chains
• Contrasting colors or glossy hardware
• Combination with striking Gothic accessories from Gothic accessories

Dungeon / private session

• wider, more stable construction
• real function for leashes or restraints
• well-padded interior for extended wear

2. Function: Day Collar, Play Collar, or both?

• Day Collar / Everyday Collar : an inconspicuous BDSM choker , often interpreted as jewelry, but with clear symbolism within the scene.
• Play Collar / Session Collar : robust, with securely attached D- or O-rings, suitable for leashes or handcuffs.
• Hybrid : simple form, but robust hardware – a statement piece by day, fetish gear by night.

In our fetish category you'll find both: everyday fetish chokers and more extreme models for sessions. Combine them with gothic hoodies from our gothic hoodies section if you want your choker to make an impact even when you're out and about.

3. Symbolism: What does your necklace say about your role?

Within the BDSM scene, certain interpretations have become established:

• O-ring in the middle : often submissive role, ready to "take on the leash"
• Multiple rings/chains : visually dominant, partly switch or dome design
• Wide posture collar : strong emphasis on posture, strict D/s dynamic.

You decide what meaning your BDSM choker holds in your particular dynamic. A choker creates space for rituals – putting it on, locking it, unlocking it. These moments shape its emotional charge. Create your own set directly in the shop: Choose a BDSM choker from the Fetish Choker category and combine it with Gothic shirts, trousers, and accessories for your next club night.

For beginners and experienced BDSM enthusiasts

Whether you're new to BDSM or already experienced, a BDSM choker is often one of the first and most meaningful accessories. It can express intimacy and connection without being intrusive. At the same time, it offers experienced users the opportunity to consciously and visibly emphasize their role. Depending on your experience, completely tear-resistant BDSM chokers like our Gothic chokers made of BioThane might be more suitable for you, as they can easily withstand even longer and more intense sessions. PU leather chokers are a good option for a Gothic fashion statement or for those on a budget. You'll find both in our wide selection of chokers.

Comfort and safety: How to ensure your BDSM collar fits correctly

A well-fitting BDSM choker feels present but not constricting. A secure and comfortable fit is especially important during longer sessions or party nights.

Checklist for fit:

• There's still plenty of room for a finger between the strap and the neck.
• You breathe freely, speak and swallow without pressure pain.
• The edges do not rub against the skin or throat.
• The clasp sits on the side or back, not on the spine.

Our EASURE chokers feature adjustable closures. This allows you to precisely adjust your fetish choker , regardless of whether you're wearing bare skin, a mesh top, or a hoodie underneath.

For more intense play involving a leash or restraints, clear boundaries are essential. Many D/s couples use a safeword or an agreed-upon signal if the pressure on the neck becomes too intense. Kink remains pleasure, not coercion. With any BDSM collar, ensure that breathing and blood flow are not restricted. Play involving strong pulling on the leash or collar should only be undertaken with clear agreements, a safeword, and ideally, prior BDSM experience. No thrill justifies health risks – listen to your body and stop immediately if you experience dizziness, numbness, or pain.

Frequently asked questions about BDSM chokers, their meaning and symbolism

What is the meaning of choker necklaces?

Choker necklaces accentuate the neck and throat and have embodied a blend of rebellion, eroticism, and style for decades. A BDSM or fetish choker amplifies this aspect and links it to dominance and submission. Chokers with O-rings or D-rings, in particular, often symbolize submission or belonging to a D/s dynamic within the scene. A discreet choker worn casually might appear to outsiders as ordinary jewelry, but for you and your partner, it remains a clear indication of your role or kink.

Do BDSM chokers always have a fixed meaning?

No. The meaning of a BDSM choker is individual . Some wear it for aesthetic reasons, others associate it with personal or emotional symbolism. There is no fixed rule for how a choker should be interpreted.

What does a tight collar mean for women?

When a woman wears a very tight collar, especially an SM choker with a ring or leash loop, many in the BDSM scene interpret this as an indication of a submissive or fetish-oriented role. The collar then symbolizes trust, bonding, and a willingness to engage in power play. Important: This meaning arises from consent and communication, not from stereotypes. Some women wear a BDSM choker simply as gothic jewelry, while others consciously use it as a day collar in a committed D/s relationship.

What does it mean when a woman wears a necklace?

When a woman wears a collar or a BDSM choker , it initially suggests she likes the look. In a BDSM context, however, the collar can express much more: a submissive role, a relationship with a dominant partner, or a ritual like putting on a day collar daily. In the Gothic scene, the collar also functions as a stylistic device, symbolizing darkness, otherness, and a connection to fetish aesthetics. The best way to clarify its true meaning is through respectful questions rather than assumptions.

Is a BDSM choker only for submissives?

No. While BDSM collars are frequently seen on submissive individuals, many dominant people deliberately wear eye-catching chokers with spikes, chains, and heavy hardware to emphasize their dominance and strength. Switches also use various fetish chokers , depending on the role they are currently embodying. Ultimately, it comes down to how you style your collar, the scenes you wear it to, and the dynamic you associate with it.

Are BDSM chokers only for certain genders?

No. BDSM chokers are gender-neutral and can be worn by anyone. Personal style, comfort, and meaning are what matter.

Can I wear a BDSM choker in everyday life?

Yes, many models are intentionally designed for everyday wear . Particularly simple designs without eye-catching elements can easily be combined with regular clothing. A simple fetish choker made of PU leather or BioThane without excessive spikes can be easily paired with a black blouse, a hoodie, or a gothic shirt . Many submissives wear a discreet day collar in their daily lives, which appears to outsiders as normal jewelry. In our Gothic Choker category, you'll find models that are equally suitable for everyday wear, the office, and clubs.

How do I find the right size for my BDSM choker?

Measure your neck circumference just above your collarbone, where you want your BDSM choker to sit. Add one to two centimeters of slack to allow for breathing and swallowing. Check the product description for the adjustable size of the choker. Our chokers in the EASURE Choker and Fetish Choker categories feature adjustable closures to ensure a secure yet comfortable fit.

What material is best suited for a BDSM choker?

For intense play and frequent wear, leather or BioThane are recommended, as both materials are robust and durable. If you're looking for vegan options, try our PU leather chokers ( see PU Leather Chokers) or BioThane models (see EASURE Chokers ). Metal chains have a particularly kinky appeal, but are better suited for symbolic use or short sessions, as the weight and cold of the chain have a more intense effect on the skin.

What should I look out for when buying a choker?

When buying a BDSM choker, you should pay attention to the following points:

• suitable size and adjustable closure
• high-quality, skin-friendly material
• clean/robust workmanship
• Design that matches your style

A well-chosen BDSM choker often accompanies you for a long time and becomes an integral part of your expression.

Is a BDSM choker suitable as a gift?

BDSM chokers are also very popular as gifts – provided they are chosen thoughtfully and respectfully. A BDSM choker is not a "neutral" everyday item like perfume or clothing – it can carry a symbolic message . Therefore, it's important to find out about the recipient's taste and beliefs beforehand. BDSM chokers can express intimacy, trust, and appreciation and are often connected to personal meaning. A gift certificate is also a suitable alternative for choosing a choker together. Many of our chokers are adjustable, so you don't need to know the exact neck circumference.
