First Impressions of the Oxballs Cock Rings
Oxballs is a premium silicone sex toy brand from the United States. They do a lot of intense looking toys but these cock rings are accessible for anyone (even beginners). The cock rings I reviewed are sold separately but are very similar in design. I am reviewing the Grunt cock ring, which is made of very soft silicone and has a textured exterior and also the Pig Ring cock ring that is a feels firmer but is made from the super soft silicone too. The Pig Ring’s interior and exterior are also smooth (unlike the Grunt).
As I mentioned, the Pig Ring feels slightly firmer but there is barely anything in it. My grunt ring feels very soft (a good thing) and the Pig Ring has slightly more resistance to it when I try stretching it with one hand. The Pig Ring cock ring is still very soft and flexible but it just feels like it has a bit more resistance. I believe it’s the design of the ring that does this rather than the material, which is apparently the same as the Grunt’s. If you click on each of the two images below you’ll see that the Grunt cock ring squishes a little more when I press down on it.

These Oxballs cock rings are on the larger size and will be worn by most people over both their cock and balls. As you can see, I can actually stretch them to fit over my wrists. I can wear them over my penis shaft too because I’m just above 6″ in circumference but even at my size they don’t create a lot of ‘intensity’ worn like that. If you are way above average in size though then you’ll be able to wear them just on your shaft. These rings are both designed to push the balls forward for aesthetic effect (I’ll talk about that later).
The packaging of these toys is very minimal and can be reused as the toy’s storage pouches. I really like this concept as it helps cut down on plastic waste, which is increasingly a problem in our World. There’s also a kind of confidence to packaging a toy like this. It’s like “my toy is so damn good that I’m just going to put it in a simple plastic pouch”. It’s a no bullshit approach, which I really respect.
All of Oxballs cock rings (including the Grunt and Pig Ring that I’m reviewing here) are made out of premium, extra soft silicone. You can feel the quality of these toys as soon as you handle them. They’re awesome. Both the Oxballs cock rings I have are coloured metallic blue but they come in several other colours too. I picked blue because it’s one of my favourite colours (stereotypical I know… leave me alone)! Honestly, I love the colour of these toys. I think of all the toys I’ve ever owned, the colour of these rings is the best. They look SO good.

Experience with the Grunt & Pig Ring cock rings
I have two Oxballs cock rings, the Grunt cock ring and the Pig Ring. They’re very similar but feel slightly different, so I’ll make some general comments about using both and then mention the things that are different.
The first Oxballs cock ring I tested was the Grunt ring. This was totally by chance… it was simply the first one I grabbed and ripped open during sex! I lubed myself up (both cock and balls), then applied some lube to the cock ring too. It is so flexible and stretchy that it was SUPER easy to put on. That isn’t the case with a lot of cock rings that fit over the cock and balls, so tip of the hat to Oxballs for achieving that.
Comfort of the Oxballs cock rings
Both Oxballs cock rings help maintain my erection while on yet because of their large surface area, they don’t feel like they are cutting my circulation off at all. Usually with cock rings, I can feel them squeezing me and pressing into my penis. With the Grunt and Pig Ring cock rings, this isn’t the case. I feel pressure but they don’t squeeze or cut into my skin at all. They’re so damn comfortable. This surprised me because they also push the balls forward, which I thought might be a little uncomfortable. Both Oxballs cock rings are the most comfortable I’ve ever worn, period.
From Eve’s point of view, she also finds these cock rings more comfortable and pleasurable than all the others I have. She says that because the silicone is so thick and soft, it feels nice as it hits her skin (as I penetrate her). She also feels my balls hit her more when I wear these cock rings, which she absolutely loves. With vibrating cock rings, Eve often gets a little frustrated because the vibrator has to be constantly repositioned so that it’s hitting the right spot. With these cock rings, that’s obviously not a problem. She also prefers the Oxballs cock rings to other more basic silicone rings I have because with the thinner, more basic kind she doesn’t feel the material of the cock ring at all. These Oxballs cock rings are the only ones I own where Eve gets a pleasurable sensation as they hit her without having to worry about repositioning. So big thumbs up from Eve in terms of sensation!
Cock rings that push the balls forward
As I mentioned, both of these Oxballs cock rings push the balls forward for aesthetic effect. The first time I put the Grunt on, I was imagining that this would look kind of ridiculous and thought neither Eve or I would like the aesthetic effect. How wrong I was! It actually looks super sexy and adds new sensation for both Eve and I too.
When I’m penetrating Eve during sex with the Oxballs cock rings on, my balls are pushed forward and they contact her skin more. This gives her an extra sensation of pressure and means I also get some stimulation to my testicles while having sex. It feels awesome and honestly… I was really surprised. I have been used to penis/ball cock rings that are very firm and mean I can’t penetrate with a lot of force (the way I like having sex). With Oxballs Grunt and Pig Ring on, I can penetrate as hard and deep as I like and it doesn’t hurt my balls at all. Seriously impressive work on these cock rings in that regard.
Another small note, technically, if the balls are pushed forward it should mean that the penis is very slightly shorter. When I asked Eve about this she told me that she didn’t notice at all. To her, my penis length felt the same as usual, so again… very impressive cock rings.
The first time I realised that Eve liked the novelty of my balls being pushed forward with these Oxballs cock rings is when I was behind her in doggy style. She reached back with one of her hands and cupped my balls for a moment as I was penetrating her. She has never done this before, so I knew that these cock rings were turning her on! Later on during that session, I told her to cup my balls again as I came inside her. It was VERY hot and we both loved it.
I usually don’t recommend wearing cock rings for any longer than 20 minutes because after that amount of time, it can get dangerous if your circulation is cut off and you don’t realise. It does happen and I’ve heard bad stories. With these Oxballs cock rings, they are so soft, thick and big that I imagine most people can keep them on for longer than 20 minutes… I know I can. You should still test them for only a brief time first but as I mentioned… they are so much more comfortable than other cock rings I have tried and seem way safer.
The differences between the Grunt and Pig Ring
There aren’t many differences between these cock rings honestly. As I mentioned, the Grunt cock ring is slightly softer and more squishy than the Pig Ring. It may be my imagination but the Pig Ring feels slightly (and I mean slightly) more intense. The advantage with the Grunt however is that it can be turned inside out so that the penis gets a new texture. Turning it inside out like this gives a subtle change to the way the Grunt feels.
Of the two, I wore the Grunt for the longest amount of time. Usually it’s usually I don’t wear cock rings for longer than 20 minutes for safety, yet with the Grunt I feel like I could keep it on for a really long time without putting myself in danger. The sheer comfort of the Grunt means that it is the one that I’ll probably use the most after this review. I don’t really lose any erection quality when I switch from one Oxballs cock ring to the other, so I tend to reach more for the softer Grunt ring.
As I said though, the Pig Ring does feel very slightly more intense and some people might prefer the look of a smooth exterior.

Cleaning the Oxballs silicone cock rings
Both the Grunt and Pig Ring cock rings by Oxballs are extremely easy toys to clean and dry. They are made of silicone, so are non-porous. You just need to rinse them with water and wash them with soap (I use Dove). If you rub them a bit with a towel and leave them out, they will dry very quickly.
The colour of these blue metallic cock rings is so vibrant and sparkly that they hide a lot of dust, which is a big bonus.
Conclusion: Oxballs Grunt vs Pig Ring
These cock rings are perfect. I rarely say that about toys but I honestly can’t fault these at all. They look great, they feel great, they’re safe, they’re easy to clean and they gave me awesome sex. I can’t really ask much more of a cock ring. I’d take either the Oxballs Grunt or Pig Ring over any vibrating cock ring or other ring I’ve ever tried. That’s how good they are. If you need a cock ring, I highly recommend you get one of these. Don’t be fooled into thinking vibrating cock rings = better. That really isn’t the case. Vibrating cock rings get in the way while you use them because the motors are so big. Take these simple yet premium cock rings instead… you won’t regret it.
So which Oxballs cock ring did I prefer? The Grunt or the Pig Ring? Personally, I prefer the Grunt cock ring. It feels ever so slightly softer without losing any erection strength, which I really appreciate. It can also be turned inside out to put the textured exterior in contact with my skin, which is quite fun. Honestly though, both the Oxballs Grunt and Pig Ring are very similar in design. You should just pick the one that you like the look of best because their performance is pretty much identical. The Pig Ring may offer slightly more intensity but the difference isn’t enough to pick it over the Grunt just for that reason.
I look forward to seeing what Oxballs does in the future. I can see that they are a premium brand that thinks out their toys well. They sell a lot of ball stretchers and intense insertable toys, such as this double penetration cock sleeve. These toys are admittedly a little too intense for me but if you and your partner like that sort of thing, get some more Oxballs in your life.
Thanks again to Peepshow Toys for sending the Oxballs cock rings to me! If you are based in either the USA or Canada you should definitely be shopping at Peepshow Toys because they are the most safe online shop available to you (they only sell body-safe toys).
