“Lube Filled Hamster Ball” at MIR 2012

“The transparent hamster ball contained 2 gallons of liquid J-Lube. The poor gimp inside the ball was wearing padded rubber helpless mitts and a heavy rubber hood with blindfold. All he could do was tumble and slosh around inside the ball as it was rolled around the vender market. He could not see or remove the mitts, and the zipper was on the outside of the ball, so he was trapped inside and totally screwed!”

Liquid Latex Demo at MIR 2013

A few photos of “PupStriker” taken by SERIOUS MALE BONDAGE of the Liquid Latex Demo done at MIR 2013 this year.

“The latex skin guy was locked in a bondage ‘ F iddle’ and then sprayed from head to toe with liquid latex. Once the latex was dried he was unlocked from the F iddle and a manual touch-up job was done with a brush. Then he walked around the vendor market in his latex skin. Afterwards, the latex pealed off fairly easily with a lot of tickling and laughter”.

A few pics from MIR 2013

Had myself an unexpected cute and muscular Rubber Puppy with me most of MIR this year so I didn’t take many high quality photos. Here’s a few from my iPhone. 

Love how one shot from an iPhone is amazing… and the next is crap. Love ya, but, keep working at it, Apple.

October Bar Night – RUBBERIZE the Newbies

Calling all newbies, the curious, the uninitiated, the unrubberized – THIS MONTH IS FOR YOU! Our October bar night will feature a gear try on night. If you have a friend who is curious but uncertain, we’ll be dressing and shining up volunteers in borrowed gear. The Rubbermen received a significan donation of rubber (sizes small, medium, and some large) and we’d like to try it out on everyone! Also, if you are looking to sell your gear at MIR and want to generate interest, bring your gear and show it off before you sell it. All the fun kicks off on Saturday, October 20 at 10:30 PM at Touche, located at 6412 North Clark Street in Chicago.
