What Is a Hollow Strap On and How Does This One Work?

If you and your partner have been curious about strap-on play, the hollow strap on from Pipedream's Fetish Fantasy Series is a thoughtfully designed option worth considering. Measuring 8 inches in total shaft length, it combines a wearable harness with a hollow interior — meaning the wearer can either insert themselves inside the shaft or use it as a standalone prosthetic. It comes in a two-tone light and black colourway, giving it a distinctive look that many couples find appealing. At £34.99, it sits at an accessible price point without compromising on build quality.

Sexual wellbeing is a genuine part of overall health, and exploring intimacy with the right tools can support confidence, connection, and pleasure for couples of all orientations and gender identities. Whether you're navigating erectile difficulties, exploring pegging, or simply adding variety to your relationship, this product offers a practical, inclusive solution. You might also find it useful to browse our condoms and sexual health collection for complementary products.

How Does the Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On Work?

The design is straightforward once you understand the mechanics. The hollow shaft sits at the front of the harness, held in place by adjustable straps that wrap around the hips and upper thighs. The interior cavity allows the wearer to slide into the shaft, so penetration can feel mutual rather than one-sided — a feature that sets hollow designs apart from solid strap-on dildos.

The adjustable harness accommodates a wide range of body sizes
The hollow interior allows the wearer to participate in sensation
The 8-inch shaft provides a substantial length for penetrative use
Compatible with water-based lubricants for smooth, comfortable use

Who Is This Hollow Strap-On Suitable For?

This product is designed for consenting adults in a wide variety of relationship dynamics. It's particularly well-suited to couples where one partner experiences erectile dysfunction, as the hollow design allows participation without requiring a natural erection. It's equally popular among same-sex female couples exploring pegging, and transgender or non-binary individuals who want a wearable option that feels more connected than a standard harness-and-dildo combination.

Couples exploring strap-on play for the first time or with experience
Individuals managing erectile difficulties who want to maintain penetrative intimacy
Same-sex female couples interested in pegging or role reversal
Transgender and non-binary individuals seeking a wearable prosthetic option

Is This Product Suitable for People With Skin Sensitivities?

If you have known sensitivities to certain materials, it's worth checking the product's material composition before use. The Fetish Fantasy Series hollow strap on is made from body-safe materials, but anyone with a history of contact dermatitis or latex sensitivity should review the product specifications carefully. Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before extended use, and discontinue if any redness, itching, or irritation develops.

Good sexual health goes hand in hand with general wellbeing. If you're managing a skin condition that affects intimate areas, our skin care collection includes products that may help support skin comfort before and after use.

This product is a personal wellness device. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

Specifications of Pipedream Fetish Fantasy Series 8" Hollow Strap-On

What Is the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On and What Is It Used For?

The Pipedream Fetish Fantasy Series 8" Hollow Strap-On is a wearable intimate accessory designed for penetrative sexual activity between consenting adults. Unlike a solid strap-on dildo, the hollow interior means the wearer can participate physically in the experience, making it a popular choice for couples where one partner has erectile dysfunction, as well as same-sex couples and individuals exploring gender expression through wearable prosthetics.

Sexual health and intimacy are recognised components of overall wellbeing. The NHS acknowledges that sexual difficulties — including erectile dysfunction — can affect relationships and quality of life, and that exploring alternative forms of intimacy can be a valid and positive approach. This product supports that exploration in a practical, accessible way.

What Do You Need to Know Before Using This Strap-On?

Before using any intimate accessory, it's important to consider your own health, any known sensitivities, and how to use the product safely. Please read the following carefully.

Do not use this product if you:

Have a known allergy or sensitivity to the materials used in the product
Have open wounds, sores, or active skin infections in the areas of contact
Have recently undergone surgery to the pelvic, genital, or perineal region without medical clearance
Are using the product in a way not intended by the manufacturer

General warnings:

Always use with a compatible water-based lubricant — silicone-based lubricants may degrade certain materials
Do not share this product between partners without thorough cleaning, or use a condom over the shaft as a barrier
Keep out of reach of children
Inspect the product before each use — discontinue use if any cracks, tears, or damage are visible

Known interactions:

No pharmacological drug interactions — this is a non-medicated device
Avoid use with oil-based lubricants, which can compromise material integrity
Do not use alongside products containing harsh chemicals or solvents

How Should You Use the Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On?

Using this product correctly makes a significant difference to comfort and enjoyment. Take your time adjusting the harness before any intimate activity — rushing the fit is one of the most common mistakes first-time users make.

Remove the product from its packaging and inspect it for any visible defects
Clean the shaft and harness with warm water and mild soap before first use, then allow to dry fully
Step into the harness and adjust the hip and thigh straps until the fit is snug but not restrictive
If using the hollow feature, gently insert yourself into the shaft before securing the harness fully
Apply a generous amount of water-based lubricant to the exterior of the shaft
Communicate with your partner throughout — start slowly and adjust pace and depth to mutual comfort
After use, remove the harness, clean all components thoroughly, and store in a cool, dry place

Use Case	User Group	Recommended Approach	Notes
Erectile dysfunction support	Adults with ED	Use hollow interior; partner-led pace	Consult GP if ED is new or unexplained
Pegging / role reversal	Couples of any orientation	Use as solid prosthetic; ample lubrication	Anal use requires extra lubrication
Gender expression	Trans / non-binary individuals	Wear as prosthetic under clothing or during intimacy	Ensure harness fit is comfortable for extended wear

If you're also looking for compatible products, our personal lubricants collection includes a range of water-based options suitable for use with intimate accessories like this one.

What Are the Possible Side Effects of Using This Product?

This is a non-medicated device, so there are no pharmacological side effects. However, as with any intimate accessory, some users may experience physical reactions.

Common reactions:

Mild skin irritation or redness at harness contact points, particularly with prolonged wear
Temporary discomfort if the harness is too tight or the shaft size is larger than the user is accustomed to
Chafing around the thigh straps if used without appropriate clothing or padding

Less common reactions:

Allergic contact dermatitis in individuals sensitive to the harness material
Bruising or soreness if used with excessive force or without sufficient lubrication
Vaginal or anal irritation if lubricant is insufficient or incompatible products are used

If you notice persistent irritation, swelling, or signs of infection following use, seek advice from your GP or a sexual health clinic. The NHS provides free sexual health services across the UK, and there is no need to feel embarrassed about raising concerns with a healthcare professional.

How Should You Store This Product?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources
Keep in the original packaging or a dedicated storage pouch to prevent dust accumulation
Do not store in contact with other sex toys made from different materials, as chemical reactions between materials can occur

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I buy the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy hollow strap on in the UK?

You can buy the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy Series 8" Hollow Strap-On directly from Cured Pharmacy online for £34.99. Orders are dispatched with discreet packaging so there's nothing to identify the contents on the outside. Cured Pharmacy is a GPhC-registered UK online pharmacy, so you can shop with confidence.

How does a hollow strap on differ from a regular strap on?

A hollow strap on has an open interior tube, allowing the wearer to insert themselves inside the shaft rather than simply wearing a solid prosthetic on the outside. This means both partners can experience sensation during use, which is a key difference from a standard solid dildo harness kit. It's particularly useful for individuals with erectile difficulties who still want to participate in penetrative intimacy.

How do I use the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy strap on step by step?

Start by cleaning the product with warm water and mild soap, then allow it to dry fully. Step into the harness, adjust the hip and thigh straps for a secure but comfortable fit, and apply a generous amount of water-based lubricant to the shaft exterior before use. Always communicate with your partner throughout and start slowly, especially if either of you is new to strap-on play.

What size is the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy 8" hollow strap on?

The shaft measures 8 inches in total length, which is considered a fuller size and may be better suited to those with some prior experience of penetrative play. If you or your partner are new to this type of product, take time to adjust and use plenty of lubrication. The harness itself is adjustable to fit a wide range of body sizes.

Is the Pipedream hollow strap on suitable for beginners?

The 8-inch length means it may feel quite substantial for complete beginners, so it's worth considering whether you and your partner are comfortable with that size before purchasing. That said, the adjustable harness and hollow design make it more accessible than many comparable products. Using plenty of water-based lubricant and going slowly will make the experience much more comfortable.

What lubricant should I use with this strap on?

Always use a water-based lubricant with this product — silicone-based lubricants can degrade certain toy materials over time, and oil-based lubricants are not recommended for use with intimate accessories or condoms. You can find a range of suitable options in our personal lubricants collection. Apply generously to the shaft exterior before and during use as needed.

How do I clean and maintain the Fetish Fantasy strap on?

After every use, wash the shaft and harness components with warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap or a dedicated intimate toy cleaner. Rinse thoroughly and allow all parts to air dry completely before storing. Never submerge the product in boiling water or use harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the material.

Can this strap on be used for anal play?

Yes, the shaft can be used for anal penetration, but it's essential to use significantly more water-based lubricant than you would for vaginal use, as the anus does not self-lubricate. Start slowly and stop immediately if there is any pain or discomfort. If you have any concerns about anal health, the NHS sexual health services can provide confidential advice.

Is the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy strap on suitable for people with erectile dysfunction?

Yes — this is one of the primary use cases for a hollow strap on. Because the wearer inserts themselves inside the hollow shaft, no erection is required to achieve penetration, making it a practical option for couples navigating erectile difficulties. If erectile dysfunction is a new or unexplained symptom, it's worth speaking to your GP, as it can sometimes indicate an underlying health condition.

How do I adjust the harness for the best fit?

The harness features adjustable straps at the hips and thighs — loosen them fully before stepping in, then tighten gradually until the fit is snug without restricting circulation or movement. The shaft should sit at a natural angle at the front of the body. It's worth doing a dry run with the harness on before any intimate activity so you can make adjustments without pressure.

What are the alternatives to the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy hollow strap on?

Alternatives include standard harness-and-dildo kits, vibrating strap-on sets, or smaller hollow strap-on options for those who find 8 inches too large. You can explore a range of options in our condoms and sexual health collection. The right choice depends on your experience level, body size, and what you and your partner are looking for.

Can I use a condom with this strap on?

Yes, placing a condom over the shaft is a good practice if you're sharing the product between partners or want an additional layer of hygiene protection. Use a standard-sized condom and ensure it is compatible with the lubricant you're using — water-based lubricants are safe with all condom types. This is particularly important if either partner has a sexually transmitted infection.

How long can I wear the harness for?

There's no fixed time limit, but extended wear can cause chafing or discomfort at the strap contact points, particularly around the thighs and hips. Take breaks if you notice any redness or irritation, and consider wearing thin, close-fitting underwear beneath the harness if you plan to wear it for longer periods. Inspect your skin after use and apply a gentle moisturiser if needed.

What should I do if I experience skin irritation after using this product?

Discontinue use immediately and wash the affected area with cool water and a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser. If the irritation is mild, it may resolve on its own within a day or two. If redness, swelling, or itching persists or worsens, consult your GP or a pharmacist — it may indicate contact dermatitis or a material sensitivity that needs attention.

Is the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy strap on discreetly packaged when delivered?

Yes — Cured Pharmacy dispatches all intimate products in plain, unmarked packaging with no indication of the contents on the outside. The sender name on the parcel will not reference the product type or the pharmacy's sexual health range. Your privacy is taken seriously at every stage of the ordering and delivery process.

How Should You Use the Pipedream Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On?

Getting the most from this product starts with preparation. Clean the shaft and harness thoroughly with warm water and mild soap before first use, allow everything to dry completely, and have your water-based lubricant ready before you begin.

What Is the Correct Dose of the Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On?

This is a non-medicated device, so there is no pharmacological dose. However, the guidance below outlines appropriate use by context to help you and your partner use it safely and comfortably.

When Is the Best Time to Use the Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On?

There is no medically prescribed time for use — this product is used according to personal preference and mutual consent between partners. That said, taking time to adjust the harness and apply lubricant before any intimate activity, rather than during, tends to make the experience more comfortable and enjoyable for both partners. Avoid use if either partner has active skin irritation, open wounds, or a genital infection in the contact area.

How Long Can You Use the Fetish Fantasy Hollow Strap-On For?

There is no set time limit for individual sessions, but it's sensible to take breaks if you notice chafing, discomfort, or skin redness at the harness contact points. Extended wear without breaks can cause irritation, particularly around the thigh straps. With proper cleaning and storage after each use, the product can be used repeatedly over an extended period — inspect it before every session and replace it if any material degradation is visible.

Do not exceed the recommended dose. If in doubt, speak to your pharmacist.

What Are the Most Common Side Effects of Using This Strap-On?

Because this is a non-medicated device, there are no pharmacological side effects. However, physical reactions can occur, particularly with new users or those wearing the harness for extended periods. Most reactions are mild and resolve quickly once use is stopped.

Mild skin redness or irritation at harness strap contact points
Chafing around the inner thighs from strap friction
Temporary soreness if the shaft size is larger than the user is accustomed to
Mild discomfort from an incorrectly adjusted harness

What Are the Less Common Side Effects of This Product?

Less commonly, some users may experience reactions related to material sensitivity or insufficient lubrication. These are not dangerous in most cases but should be taken seriously and addressed promptly.

Allergic contact dermatitis — redness, itching, or a rash at points of skin contact
Vaginal or anal irritation following use without sufficient lubrication
Bruising or tenderness if used with excessive force
Swelling or inflammation in sensitive tissue if the product is used incorrectly

What Are the Serious Side Effects of Using This Product?

Serious adverse reactions are rare but possible. If you experience any of the following, stop using the product immediately and seek medical advice. Do not attempt to self-treat significant symptoms.

Signs of infection — increased warmth, pus, or fever following use
Severe allergic reaction — widespread rash, swelling of the face or throat, difficulty breathing (seek emergency care immediately)
Significant bleeding or tissue injury from forceful or incorrect use

What Should You Do If You Experience Side Effects?

For mild irritation, discontinue use and wash the affected area with cool water and a gentle, fragrance-free cleanser. Allow the skin to recover fully before resuming use. If you suspect a material allergy, do not use the product again until you have identified the cause. For persistent, worsening, or serious symptoms, contact your GP or visit an NHS sexual health clinic — these services are confidential and non-judgemental.

Can This Product Interact With Other Products?

This is a non-medicated device with no pharmacological drug interactions. However, certain product combinations can cause material degradation or increase the risk of irritation. Avoid using silicone-based or oil-based lubricants with this product, as they can break down the shaft material over time. Do not use alongside harsh chemical cleaners, and avoid contact with other sex toys made from different materials during storage, as chemical reactions between materials can occur.

If you are concerned about any side effects, contact your pharmacist or GP immediately.
