So in addition to being too tight, are you getting the testicles being pulled into or toward the pump cylinder?

I don't have any "sleeves" but some guys here on the forums recommend them. I was concerned about the tightness as well. The openings look a tad small to my eye. I'll just have to try a couple types and see. We need like a VED class :oops:

2. Shave around your pubic area where the sleeve makes contact.
3. Lube your dick, the inside of the sleeve, and around the outer edge where it contacts your public area.

It should seal then, plus be more comfortable for you..



I cant trim the inner sleeve. I already did steps 2 and 3. IS there a place to buy a bigger sleeve

What is your girth, what is the sleeve diameter i.d. & o.d.?
Why can't the i.d. be trimmed?
Yes there are larger and softer (silicone) sleeves. The one supplied with your pump is probably made of harder material. Do a search of larger pump sleeves.

Here's a couple pics of my trimmed sleeve.

I guess i could trim it. Doesnt yours now sabotage its ability to perform suction on the penis because of the way u cut it? it'd be more easy for me to order a bigger sleeve if you know of any. Also, i am not sure of the diamters but i will check tomorrow and let you know cuz i think that could be helpful to our conversation

Westerntown, no it still seals good. Before I trimmed it it was too tight on me, afterwards not too bad. Since then, through use, it has split a little around the inner edges some, but it still maintains a good seal. I am around 6" in girth normally, but when pumping I'm sure it goes a little over that. I bought another sleeve, but the material was actually a little stiffer so I don't use it. I thought about trimming it also but since my trimmed one works good I figured why bother. They make different ones, and I feel the silicone ones are probably softer, but again it depends on how thick they are.
You never did say what your girth is, and I assume it's larger than 6", so you're going to need a larger sleeve, you just don't want to go too big or you'll be vacuuming your testicles into the tube too. My cylinder has a 2" diameter, and I fill it pretty well, but I wouldn't want to go larger because of that. That's why I suggested trimming your sleeve, your cylinder is probably large enough, your sleeve is what's giving you the problem. The o.d. is fine, the i.d. is just too tight. Everyone's built different, sometimes you have to modify things to fit you!

Westerntiown: I use a very soft and stretchable universal pump sleeve, which is also very inexpensive on ebay. Just search on the following on ebay:

Soft 2X Silicone Replacement Donut Sleeve Cover Fit Penis Pump Vacuum Universal

I would have provided the link, but it's way too long. I found this sleeve to be most comfortable that I've found and it's certainly worth giving it a try.

I think you may have told me about this sleeve as well. I'm planning to get one, because I can't keep the testicles out of the way. Once the skin starts being pulled toward the cylinder it just keeps getting sucked in and I'm concerned that I've already damaged my testicles. But what I wanted to ask about is the size of the hole. In the picture on ebay it looks about the size of a finger.

It might look that way but it's not uncomfortable at all. Like I said, if you can find one that's soft, and fits you, great.

PSSDorAmINormal: The hole is not really a hole but is an inside tube/sleeve and measures a little over 3/4 inch. Don't let the size deter you as it's very soft and stretchy.
