Recommendations for purchasing tickling supplies and accessories.

[Ticklishsanji]

I'm looking to make some purchases to add on to my toy collection, and was hoping from some insight from fellow TMFers.

Mainly I'm looking at 2 things:
1: Purchasing or building a pair of stocks.
If purchasing I'm looking for something middle of the road. I want to spend just enough to have something that'll do it's job and not break halfway through. I'm not looking to just get the cheapest thing out there, but I also don't really want to drop more than necessary.
2: Purchasing a canvas straitjacket.
Similarly, I don't mind spending money on a quality product, but it's hard to tell which are just for costume purposes and which can actually stand up to struggling/fighting. My main problem is most I find seem to be leather which I'm guessing is rather uncomfortable if that's not your thing.

Does anyone have any experience with either of these, or recommendations on where to purchase either online? Or even just some suggestions on what to look for / look out for when shopping for them?

Appreciate any help available. Thanks tons.

For a high quality, real (as opposed to costume) straightjacket, look at the "Institutional Canvas Strait Jacket" on the top right of this page: http://www.medicaltoys.com/straitjackets.htm

Cool! Thanks Milagros.
I had stumbled upon this one in my searches, and it looked pretty legit.
Have you had any experience with it?
I'm mostly looking at how tightly it binds, and strong it is. I'm a fairly lanky and noodly individual, and tend to wrench my way free of most devices I've tried over the years. (I think I might have a little Houdini in me) so that's a concern of mine.

I have not bought a straightjacket from them, but I have bought other items, most recently the "Institutional Sensory Deprivation Hood" (follow link below), and it was well made and very secure indeed.

Photos of me wearing the hood are below. Obviously, I bought the black leather version, not the white leather version.

Cool cool, very nice.
Thanks for sharing, I really appreciate the input.
Sometimes it's hard to figure out what out there is mostly costumey, what is the sort of low quality cheap stuff for people just experimenting with it, and what can actually take a bit of a beating.

Thanks again! You're awesome.
