Inflation is a fetish which overlaps with many other sexual interests, including but not limited to latex, balloons, food or stuffing, liquid play, and the adoption of dominant and submissive roles. The core element of the inflation fetish is the idea of something, usually a human body but also sometimes a suit or object, growing larger and larger as it is filled with air, water, food, or other similar substances.

While most inflatable hoods feature the typical fully round ball shape, it is sometimes possible to find one which is more oval or head-shaped, if you prefer to have you or your partner resemble an inflatable sex doll or toy. The most commonly found type of access suit features two zippers, one which can be unzipped to expose the genital area and one the anus. This allows for manual or oral stimulation or penetrative sex to occur while using the suit to engage in inflation play. In addition, these zippers can be used for more mundane purposes, such as allowing the suited partner to use the bathroom if a play session goes on for a long time (although forcing you or your partner to “hold it” can add an intense new element to your play – the Laidtex staff definitely recommends giving it a try!) In addition, many kinksters cite a connection between inflation and the wide, varied world of size difference fetishes. Those into inflation often fantasize about a person becoming amazingly, impossibly large, while their partner remains human size (or perhaps even shrinks). A special safety tip from the Laidtex staffers: If your suit features a hose or opening and you plan to experiment with different methods of inflating it, try them out first on just the suit, with no human inside. That way, if something doesn’t work or goes wrong, your partner will not be at any risk of injury.The last commonly seen type of inflation suits and accessories are those inspired by real-life situations in which inflation is used. They are most typically used by individuals with a sexual interest in roleplay, and can help a sexy scenario become even more immersive than ever before. But why an inflatable blindfold? The inflation fetish typically involves the entire body becoming larger – why focus on such a small part such as the eyes? However, if you’re feeling a little adventurous, or you’re a long-time inflation lover who is looking to add something more to your devilishly sensual collection, there are many variations on the standard inflation suit model. We’ve compiled a list of some of the most popular pieces and will be briefly introducing each of them in the following sections. So why not try something new today and take one of these sexy suits or alluring accessories out for a spin? Read over the scenarios described above again and ask yourself – other than the shared “inflation” theme, what do they have in common? The answer is that most of the dreams of your average inflation fetishist must remain confined to the realms of fantasy, erotic literature and roleplay. The inflatable blindfold can be paired with an inflatable catsuit for full-body bondage play. However, it can also be enjoyed even by those who are not themselves inflation fetishists, because of its effectiveness in cutting off the sight thoroughly and entirely.

Cleaning, storing and repairing an inflation suit can be done in the same way as you would with a more standard catsuit or gimp suit.

In this scenario, the larger partner, despite their limited control and range of movement, can take on a dominant role due to the sheer power which their new size grants them. They can do anything from cradling their smaller partner in between their enhanced breasts to squishing, crushing or even consuming them (a sub-fetish known as vorarephilia or vore) to further add to their massive size. The ball body, balloon body or B-body suit is a relatively new addition to the wide world of inflation play. It was designed by UK-based fetish gear manufacturer SlinkySkin, and was specifically targeted at those who enjoy combining inflation and latex play with full-body bondage and sensory deprivation. As one of its alternate names suggests, it is also frequently enjoyed by those who are aroused by balloons, as the suited, fully inflated partner can be said to resemble a sort of “human balloon”. A typical inflation suit consists of two distinct layers of latex. The inner layer hugs the body of the suit’s wearer, clinging tightly in a similar manner to a more standard catsuit. The presence of this inner layer makes the suit easier to put on and remove, lessens the risk of air escaping during play, and provides pleasurable sensation to the wearer. Some “inflatees” have compared the feeling of being squeezed and caressed by this tight layer to “receiving a sensual, full-body air massage” and describe it as extremely arousing and stimulating.

Firstly, if any part of you (such as your legs) is outside the suit, they will feel far more sensitive as they are the only remaining parts of your body capable to feel. Being unable to see or hear anything or feel any sensation with your hands or upper body can make your partner’s playing with your legs, feet or genitals feel hundreds of times more intense than you could have ever imagined. Not to mention, when you’re finally freed from the suit, your entire body will experience the sublime pleasure of extra-sensitivity! You might be free from your ball – but you’ll be reduced to a quivering ball of pleasure beneath your partner’s expert touch!
