Rina I wish I can create a chastity belt startup and make chastity belt that is more advanced and comfortable, as well as more affordable.
if you have some money you can certainly give it a try. you wrote that you see a gap in the market especially among transgenders and yes transwomen certainly want belts that look like women's belts. you might be onto something hot there. if you think there is a market for it you might really want to give it a try 
Rina I can test it on myself! Trying to wear any prototype belts and try to do routine things on myself would help a lot in improving the quality of the belt. I wish I can model myself in it too!
I know from Fancy Steel he test the belt by himself and test every design with different peoples. Male and female.
I see the problem that some people are not symmetrical. This can cause problems with standard designs.
Rina Adjustability. So many cheap knockoff Chinese belts have adjustable design …
Yes. I agree completely. Adjustability is extremely important. I like the fact that my cheap, Chinese belt is infinitely adjustable, and not merely in one-inch or one-cm increments.
I have tried to make the same argument on at least one prior occasion.
Rina …special mechanism that allows adjustment only when it is not worn …
My cheap Chinese belt satisfies this requirement. Another reason why I love it so much.

i agree 100%, chastity belts are not cheap and more research should be done to develop belts that still fit when the person weighs +-20 kilos.
Hmmm, well, chances are not bad for them to become mainstream in the gay community what would give the devices for males a further improvement. You could also see the change go on over the years.... when I started being locked up 6 years agoit was not particulary easy to find a good cage online. Most of them were either of bad quality, completely overpriced or both - apart from some premium brands which already existed back then.
Today you can easily find a good and cheap cage on Amazon or Ebay, or have one 3d printed for you.
There are also some new brands like BehindBarz or Cocoon which started there business one / two years ago.
I think the quality of belts will definitely improve among all price ranges, like it did for male devices. And after that more and more people will understanf what you mean when you say "I'm locked" what is really nice... it's just very intimidating always habäving to explain what chastity is and why you like it... people will know what you are talking about.
And who knows, maybe some day people don't need to hide the belt anymore in public. There'd be even more and cheaper professional chastity keyholding services and so on... and maybe one day there'll be chastity belt service shops in shopping malls... or belts and cages in clothing shops. Maybe clothing that have a hole in them so you can see the locked belt through them, or pants which get attached to (and removed from) the belt (when necessary), sort of to use the chastity belt also as belt for the clothes. ... maybe there'll be pants with zippers in the leg parts from top on, so that they can be worn with thigh bands.

Jen better to make them cheep.
yes, that would be an advantage for many who really want a belt, but you have to keep in mind that branded belts are made specifically for the body shape. it's not so much the belt as such, but rather the work that goes into making it that makes it expensive.
ok, another business idea 
Kaja Who wears a cb IS a PRISONER.
I just said that sometimes I think I look like one, not that I am one.
Max9 Maybe clothing that have a hole in them so you can see the locked belt through them
Belts would make a nice fashion accessory. I mean, goth/punk subcultures already deck themselves in cuffs, collars and decorative chains, so restraints for fashion are not exactly unheard of. And some belts are just beautiful.

I am just imagining chastity garters... which makes me think of stockings that clip right to the thigh bands.

I wish belts were seen as more neutral not like cuffs or chains.
youdontknowme And some belts are just beautiful.
I'm gonna make mine shine today
Well ... yes and no. You do give up control over parts of your body to someone else, so you are sort of imprisioned. But this imprisioning is what can also set you free. It's dependent on whether or not you ejoy being locked if this imprisionment is something good or bad.

well i have a few friends in the scene and although you are right i have to say that even there i would never show the chastity belt completely openly, at some point the friends would surely ask me where the keys are.
frankly, i feel less locked in by the equipment as such, but more by the dependence on my key holder (i.e. my father) to let me out again in the necessary moments.
Angelina idk, i personally wouldn't mind tge dependency... it is rather somewhat appealing to me... it gives you a feeling of protection and caring... ok, when you're locked by your parents I can understand that, but ... when you're locked by your partner it's really nice. might also just be me, because i like that mommy dom stuff (without ageplay of course)
High tech materials that are flexible but unbreakable, like some kind of military grade soft fabric where you can still move and stretch without being cut in half.
Sin There was a strange crowdfunding project in 2013 for anti-rape underwear. From what I could tell, it was just a pair of elastic undershorts, but with reinforcing strips of UHMWPE (also used in ballistic armor). The whole thing fastened at the front of the waistband with a combination lock.
There was enough interest that the project hit its funding goal, despite it getting a lot of negative attention (especially from pop culture commentators). Unfortunately, after posting sporadic updates for three years, the project fell through and the founders vanished with about $USD50k of backers’ money. Oh well.
But I think the idea is sound: it’s now possible to replace the steel cables/bands of a belt with polyethylene straps to make something a lot more comfy and ordinary-looking.

i think it's a good idea for people who want to protect themselves, but it's certainly not safe against sex and masturbation. i think it can only confuse the perpetrator long enough in the case of rape that he might give up
