19 of the best cock rings for couples, tried and tested by a sex writer

If you’re in the mood to really treat yourself (and your partner), look no further.

Swedish sexual wellness brand LELO knew exactly what we wanted when designing this vibrating cock ring, with silky smooth silicone and eight powerful murmurs sending you straight to the finish line.

The raised nub makes it easy to hit your sweet spot too, whatever the position. Just make sure to load up with your favourite water-based lube to avoid any unwanted chafing or bruising.

Forget the join bank account — this is the next step in any relationship, and we don’t recommend waiting.

This rainbow ring is a ménage à trois of pleasure and we are *totally* here for it. Fitted with a removable bullet vibe and aptly placed rabbit ears, this one’s all about female pleasure.

Start by loading up the ring and your partner’s shaft with your favourite water-based lube. Once you’ve slid the ring on, climb on top, under, or next to, and await your blended orgasm.

Trust us, you won’t hear your partner complaining either, because the stretchy ring should increase the pressure and pleasure for them as well.

Still trying to work out your size? This trusty three pack from Bellesa contains a small, medium, and large ring — each super squishy and stretchy — so you can trial them all and decide which feels best.

We’d also recommend popping the spare rings around your partner’s balls to really make him go, well, nuts.

And while these don’t vibrate, we’re still keen to fight their corner — because as they say, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. If the goal is getting your partner to last longer and to enjoy a more intense O, you’re onto a winner.

It's a common misconception that sex toys only bring the vibes when you're in the same room, but we're here to break that myth. You can actually get as much joy from a bedmate when you're apart as when you're together — and you can both get in on the fun.

We-Vibe has created a date night kit set with toys you can use both together and apart, which includes its Pivot cock ring and Nova rabbit vibrator, meaning no erogenous zone will go unpleasured.

Both toys are kitted out with the brand's rumbly vibrations, which can be synced and controlled via the We-Vibe app.

Unsurprisingly, a whole host of sex toys cross our desks here at Cosmo — so we've seen everything there is to see under the sun.

What really gets us excited, though, is when a product uses a new or innovative technology to help us get off, so when we heard about Luxus we were buzzing to try it out.

Made up of a cock ring and a clit vibrator, this clever set is designed to bring you and your partner closer together, whether you're in the same place or apart.

In distance mode, Luxus uses car sensor technology to intensify the vibrations in the clit vibe the closer it gets to the cock ring, but you can also switch to speed mode to increase the vibrations as you pound harder towards O-town.

Still trying to work out your size? This trusty three pack from Lovehoney contains a small, medium, and large ring — each super squishy and stretchy — so you can trial them all and decide which feels best.

We’d also recommend popping the spare rings around your partner’s balls to really make him go, well, nuts.

And while these don’t vibrate, we’re still keen to fight their corner — because as they say, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. If the goal is getting your partner to last longer and to enjoy a more intense O, you’re onto a winner.

Now we can’t encourage the public pursuit of self-pleasure, however this discreet cock ring is ideal if you want to get frisky outside of the bedroom.

Designed by Japanese sex toy giants Tenga, this vibrating cock ring is supposed to look just like a USB and comes in a sleek travel case to help you avoid any unwanted encounters with airport security.

It’s also super quiet, rechargeable, waterproof, and has five vibration settings to help get you and your partner off. Consider this a sign that sometimes it’s a good idea to keep things simple.

Double trouble, this cock ring is also a butt plug — and with a circumference of four inches, is perfect for those just getting started with anal play.

Designed with the partner with a penis in mind, this is all about spreading the pleasurable sensations throughout the entire nether regions.

Simply slip the schlong through the 4.75 inch circumference cock ring, before lubing up the anal probe to reach behind to the backdoor, for stronger, longer erections blended with P-spot pleasure as you play.

If you are no novice when it comes to cock rings, then this non-stretchy number could be the upgrade you’re after.

Made from luxe stainless steel for a tighter squeeze, this cock ring is designed to constrain the shaft (in the best way possible) and balls.

It also means temperature play is totally an option, although be prepared to answer some awkward questions if your housemate finds it in the fridge…

One fan did suggest that it took a bit of ‘dick origami’ to get it in place, but also claimed it was worth the hassle.

ICYMI, 80% of women and people with vulvas can't orgasm from penetration alone, so here at Cosmo we're determined to make sure that changes.

While there's lots you can do to have a better, more fulfilling sex life, you can't knock sex toys as an excellent easy fix.

Designed by two women (sexologist Alex Fine and engineer Janet Lieberman), Hug has a larger-than-most protruding nub to make sure your clit is getting as much in on the action as possible.

But, don't worry, your penis-having partner will also benefit from its five vibration modes, which buzz throughout the whole toy, including the adjustable ring arms.

Oh, and don't forget to use code ‘BF20’ for 20% off.

It’s not often penises see much physical touch from long-distance sex toys, but Lovense has covered all bases with its app-controlled vibrating cock ring that can be activated from anywhere in the world.

As well as a stretchy ‘ring’, Diamo brags a 2.95 inch extended arm so its vibrations reach even further during solo or partnered play.

When you’re feeling yourself, the toy can be synced with your favourite tunes through the Lovense app, which also provides unlimited customisable vibration patterns.

If having a sleeve over your schlong isn’t your thing, don’t worry because you’ll be so distracted by the multitude of simulations coming from this Bondara number you won’t even notice you essentially have a whole contraption on your genitals.

It’s set with a sheath that sends vibrations over your entire shaft, down to your partner’s G-spot, along with an attachment that sits at the base to stimulate licking on the C-spot as you slide in and out of her.

As if that wasn’t enough to make for a quick finish, the sleeve adds half an inch more girth to your package — and it’s ribbed. Unreal.

If you’re in the market for an affordable toy that’s also really nice to look at, then Satisfyer’s Duelist Couple’s Cock Ring may well be for you. This sexy little toy is easily adjustable, offers targeted clit stim via its triangular head, and has delicate grooves for a nice extra boost of pleasure.

As well as boasting 12 vibration settings, which can be easily controlled via one button, the cock ring is made of super soft silicone, is fully waterproof, and rechargeable. So, bath, shower, and anywhere else you might go, you’ll never be without.

This sleek little toy from Ann Summers is made from super soft, super stretchy silicone, making it a great fit for all body shapes (a bonus if you have multiple partners!).

Now for the couple’s part: it’s essentially two toys in one to help both parties get off. It boasts a cock ring — which can be used to either keep the penis-having partner hard or attached to a strap-on or fingers — as well as a removable remote-controlled bullet vibe — for added vulva stimulation during foreplay or penetrative sex.

Plus, the bullet has seven patterns and three speed settings — so you won’t get bored. Just slap on a load of water-based lube, and you’re ready to go, go, go.

Crafted from soft, stretchy silicone, this heart-shaped cock ring slips snugly around the base of the shaft, helping to maintain a longer-lasting erection.

Meanwhile, vulva owners reap the benefits of the discreet mini bullet vibrator sitting at the front of the ring, positioned to press against the clitoris during foreplay and penetrative sex.

Ideal for fans of the iconic Rampant Rabbit, this vibrating cock ring delivers stimulation — through 10 different vibration settings — to your partner’s shaft and your clit. Win win.

But that’s not all! When reversed, the rabbit ears stimulate the testicles, meaning even more pleasure for your partner.

As one happy reviewer wrote: “I got this particular cock ring because I’ve always loved clitoral stimulation during sex. It worked great — the added bonus was to turn it around to vibrate on my partner’s balls and it worked a treat. Only downside is that maybe it worked a little too well lol.”

If you’ve never used a cock ring, or simply want to explore a gentler option, this adjustable cock ring from Ann Summers is likely to be The One.

Made from super-stretchy silicone and fitted with an adjustable toggle, this ring will fit all shapes and sizes, while also giving your partner full control over the pressure around their disco stick.

And for vulva-owners, this cock ring also features a removable bullet vibrator (total-body teasing is a-go) and delicate textured nubs to grind against.

Offering a trio of ways to play, this set of cock rings comes in three sizes so you can tailor how you use them.

Made from stretchy yet durable silicone, the Romp Remix cock rings are designed to fit comfortably around the penis to restrict blood flow for a longer and harder erection. They can be worn around the base of the penis, around the penis, around the testicles, or around all these areas at once.

Explore and experiment with what sensations you enjoy the most — just be sure to use plenty of water-based lube to slide these into place.
