Pup Syxie
Midwent Bearfest’s “Most Huggable Pup” 2024!
Pocket Puppy
We have a bootblack! Pocket Puppy is well known for their bootblacking work at International Mister Leather, International Puppy & Trainer Contest, as well as their regular service at Men’s Room and Jackhammer in Chicago.
Dress Code
At least one major piece of gear is required. Examples include pup hoods, leather vests, harnesses, or other kink-oriented clothing. At Circle City Leather, we are aware that the Leather and Gear subcultures can introduce an element of classism to play. If you do not own gear, but wish to attend our event, please feel free to join our discussion channel or reach out to us through the contact page, and we will find a way to accommodate you.
Definition of Masculinity
A stated goal of Circle City Leather is that someone who wants to identify as a gay man for the very first time should feel comfortable doing so at our events. We do not support or tolerate discrimination on the basis of anatomy, or perceived “passability” of gender presentation. If you come to our event using he/him or they/them pronouns, you will be welcome here.
Spaces and amenities
Sensory Recovery (Ground Floor)
A darker, quieter area is available for taking sensory breaks. Attendees are asked to respect the tranquility of the space to assist in the comfort of people who may feel overstimulated by the environment.
Conversational / Snack Area (Ground Floor)
A well-lit area with tables and chairs is provided adjacent to the kitchen. This area may be used for conversation, games, snacking and eating, or other non-play activities.
Play Areas
Our venue features expansive play areas, containing furniture with attachment points and all the comforts of home. Whether you come to see a show, or put on a display all your own, you’ll find what you’re looking for at The Masc-Q-Raid!
