SiliSleeve proper wear

Pics of my head turning purple?

That if you want, but more specific the difficulties your having.

I was working out and I had the thicker part at the base of my penis bit eventually I got sweaty enough that my penis was slipping down the sleeve. I ended up going to the restroom and had a two inches turtle going on. So I swapped it around and had the thick part at the just beneath the head then 30mins later I started to feel some tingling at the base but it wasn't another 20mins later that I was finally able to see what was going on at which point I was hurting. My head had slipped through the thicker part so at least it wasn't going purple but I believe the base of my penis was going number due to the roll up in tbe sleeve compressing. Thoughts? The powder is a good suggestion. I'll have to go out and get some.

Here is about 40mins apart. I had to use the restroom. You can see how the tip is very close to the fold. 40mins later you can see a bulge towards the base and the tip isn't as far up the sleeve anymore.

I would simply go to the bathroom every hour and just re-position the sleeve.

I've been able to wear my shorter sleeves without having to re-adjust every hour, but then again monitoring the warmth of your penis is important, therefore breaks are good.

@whitefeather I thank you very much for the photos, that takes balls! And you've got 'em. One trait for making the gains.

Tough to say what to do though. In the first picture it looks pretty OK albeit covering more of your head than needed. (And slightly bumped, did it go on smooth?)
The second one, did the close to your base/pubic bone roll off? As in towards you, making the shift.

I hope you can get the sleeves to work in the best possible way!
Some non-talcum body dusting powder could create some more tack to the sleeves making them stay in place better. Could, in my experience it did help somewhat as I used some body dusting powder.
It shouldn't be necessary but it could be a solution. (Now I'm repeating words, excuse me! Happy gaining!)

I just realized that the pictures that uploaded in my second picture post weren't the ones I had selected so I only re-uploaded pictures :/ oh well. Um I don't feel my penis getting cold, I don't know if using the 3in sleeve would work better and I wouldn't have to worry about folding the sleeve at the top a little bit and my penis would still be extended even if it weren't fully extended. Considering it slides a right now anyways (without powder, still need to buy some and try) it doesn't stay full extended. The sleeve goes on pretty smooth, no issues. I've figured out the best way to hold the sleeve as I get it around my head and then the unrolling is pretty easy. Normally, when the thicker part is at the base of my penis it stays there. The only time it didn't was at the gym earlier today and I got pretty sweet and had the crazy 2in turtle. Suffice to say, leg days are no go with this; and today wasn't even leg day.
To clarify, when I have the thick part at the base, there is extra sleeve. I fold the tip back so its just a little further than the tip. When I fold the sleeve to be just beneath my glans, slowly does my penis slip into anyways. When it's reversed well, the doughnut at the base of my penis cuts off too much circulation and my head gets purple when the thick part is beneath that glans. And today my head ended up slipping within the sleeve anyways.
I do think the powder would be helpful.

Okay, thanks for that. I'm not sure what the solution is here, if its too tight it hampers circulation. Fingers crossed the powder can help.

This sounds so frustrating and I wish I had a better solution to offer but I’m really hoping that the powder helps. I know what it’s like when you’re trying to make something work and it’s not working for you, it can be so stressful and frustrating. Be gentle and kind to yourself and we will figure this out together. No worries there’s always a solution.

Well, I really want to say that the powder helped. I don't know, maybe I got the wrong powder but I didn't really help. The first time I applied powder, I just put a little on. The second time I put it on like a baker uses powdered sugar and still no luck. I was just sitting around in the house. I'll try it again tomorrow morning before I head to work, maybe building up some heat down there will make a difference.

Wow I can imagine just how upset you are, I’m so sorry. Will keep working with this until we get it right I promise. We’ve never come up on problems that we have not been able to solve so with time and patience we will figure this out t wow I can imagine just how upset you are, I’m so sorry.

In the meantime be gentle and kind with yourself and don’t worry too much right now, we will solve it later.

Update! After two days of use walking around work with the powder, it really didn't slip. Haven't tried yet in the gym. I will try tomorrow and let you all know how it works. Maybe I was just too calm and for whatever reason stickiness wasn't happening down. But back to back days at work were pretty successful. I did notice a cold penis head though after leaving it on for maybe two hours, not quite sure but it was a while. I left the sleeve off for an hour or so then put it back on. I'll pay more attention to the cold head. What causes that? Lack of fresh blood?

Happens to me as well. In my case I try to take breaks whenever possible, but of course that can defeat the purpose somewhat.

Overall, yes, lack of fresh blood / constriction is behind the colder head, at least if you think logically.

I'm glad to hear though that you had a walk and it didn't slip.

Personally I think, when it comes to gym training, turtling etc., is a natural thing. As might most sports the blood flow will "reroute" to places where it's needed most. So give gym training, sports, etc., all you got and do PE later on. Just my personal take on it, as I underlined.

Anyway, good thing that you're keeping up with the usage and be sure to give full attention to your PE routines as well, apart from the sleeve usage.

I’m so happy that you have work this out and now it’s working for you. I told you it would happen actually I promised you LOL a cold head is not a big deal it happens under constriction. So as long as you’re checking up on things regularly you will be fine. Every couple hours you can take off and can return good circulation. I’m just very happy that this is worked out for you!

@arkailija We are getting posted at the exact same time LOL

A lucky coincidence or great minds just connecting at the same seconds!

Anyway, Brothers, to take time with your sleeves and let us know if you have any issues.
Try to wear the fatter part at the base if that feels better, just experiment.
That's how PE was founded, experimentation! There's no telling if a newly joined Brother today could one day have a terrific idea. While we have good routines available here and going by them is a great way to gain, don't be afraid to test the unknown waters as well from time to time. Just be safe, that's what I'll say.

Seems to happen a lot Ark?

Should a silisleeve be secured at the base of the penis or seated just below the glans?

I thought I ordered an entire set, but the narrow and girthier silisleeve seem to be the same length. A note was included that I would receive the silicap next week. Are longer sleeves included in the set with the cap?

Hell that was a fight to apply the sleeve single-handed!

Says in the shop silisleev & silicap regular for $29.95 and silisleev & silicap long set $39.95

Sounds like you ordered the regular size, and yes they are the same length. These are the ones I use sometimes at night, and during the day to prevent turtling.

I know it can be a slight struggle getting the sleeves on, but they should be resistant, and not loose.
What I do, is ensure the sleeve is close to my base as I can, with the ridged end underneath the glans.

You can experiment to see what works better for you i.e you may find it better to secure the sleeve just underneath your glans, and some men find having the ridged part at the base works best.

Yea that was probably it. I’m still pretty humble and figured the smaller size will work for me for a while. I’m just afraid I’ll tear the sleeve with my hook when fighting to get it on.

I made sure to practice with the wider of the 2 after my 1st couple attempts with the tighter sleeve was no successful. I would have been really upset with myself if I destroyed the correct one before I had a chance to experience it. I’ve had it one for 2 hours and it stayed well during that time I was working out...

Def satisfied so far. I’ll have to check my skin when I get cleaned up. I do notice a purple tint to my head and slight coolness but no numbness light I’ve experience with a CR.

Flaccid circumference is just shy of 4.”

I was reading the forum where the guy was recommended to place the thicker end toward the base so I’ll try the thick end toward the head after I shower for another 2 hours.

I guess I subscribed to the principle of limb wrapping for edema mobilization: Tighter distally. However, our goals are quite different in this scenario. This would also probably make it easier to secure the sleeve at my base since I’ve noticed that my base has gotten significantly thicker in this short period.

I read that some ppl have the sleeve roll back from the base. I couldn’t get mine down to the base on my 1st/ 2nd try and just gave up... however I wonder if that space (about the same width as my thumbnail is why I have not noticed this same rolling effect?

This is good because I have not found a CR that I can wear longer than 20 mine without too severe constitution (and that is prolly pushing it). However, this sleeve feels great and I love feeling myself hang lower.

I’ll have to order some more sleeves for backup just in case because I do not trust myself... blew through a 4 pack of CR in one week.
