A listing of gay fetish/leather gear parties happening in the United States (US) and around the world. Fetish/Leather (Gear) or simply known as gear parties are events that either has a strict dress code theme or suggested dress code when it refers to gear. Some events are Leather events where they want or require their guests to wear black leather gear or leather gear in general. Some require that your footwear be black Combat boots or leather boots in gear. For a Top (Shirt), usually most men wear harness gear and nothing else simply because in most cases its too hot to wear anything more.
Another clue is to look at the images at the party to determine what the dress code is and what they will allow. Dress Shoes and Athletic footwear is frowned upon in strict dress code events and they will state it specifically in their flyers if the dress code will be enforced. In most cases, they expect you to either follow the rules or don’t come or ask for a refund. So make sure you’re going to be committed if you’re going to attend an event like this.
