Rouge Garments Wooden Handled Pink Leather Flogger

A leather flogger with a wooden handle in pink from Rouge Garments, the long-standing UK leather workshop. 23 inches overall, with multiple supple leather tails attached to a solid wooden grip rather than the rubberised or moulded grips on the cheaper end of the flogger category. The wooden handle is the differentiating feature: better weight balance through the swing, more authentic feel.

Floggers sit between sting and thud on the impact spectrum: heavier than a riding crop, broader than a paddle, often described as "controlled rain". The multi-tail design distributes force, which makes them forgiving for newer hands; strike the fleshy upper-outer buttocks and upper back, avoid kidneys, tailbone and joints.

Standard leather care: wipe down after wear, condition the leather tails with leather balm two or three times a year, store hung rather than flat (so the tails don't take a set).
