About Floggers.com
Some things are built to last.
Floggers.com has been crafting premium handmade impact toys since 1993 — founded in Chicago by Mark, and built on a reputation for quality that spread through the community one piece at a time.
In 2025, the business relocated to the Pacific Northwest. I am Doug, and I am the new hands behind this brand.
When I acquired Floggers.com, I did not just buy the name. I acquired the original production machinery — the same equipment Mark used for over thirty years in Chicago. The techniques, the standards, and the tools all made the move to Washington State. Nothing was left behind.
I trained under Mark directly — learned the cuts, the braiding, the handle work, the finishing. The standards did not change when ownership did. Neither did the machines.
What makes our pieces different
Every handle is either machined aluminum or solid rubber — not the hollow wooden dowels you will find in most floggers at this price point. The weight is intentional. The balance is deliberate. When you pick one up, you will know immediately that it was built to be used, not displayed.
The leather is selected, not grabbed. The falls are cut for consistency. The stitching holds up to actual use — not just photo shoots.
Who we are for
Whether you are buying your first flogger or adding a precision instrument to a collection you have spent years building — you are in the right place. We do not talk down to beginners and we do not gatekeep from newcomers. Impact play has a learning curve, and we are happy to help you navigate it. Got questions about what is right for you? Reach out. I answer personally.
Where we are headed
Floggers.com is growing into something bigger — a curated marketplace for the best handcraft makers in the community. Not a race to the bottom on price. Not mass-produced gear dressed up with artisan language. Real makers. Real craft. Real quality.
We are building that deliberately, the same way we build our floggers.
Chicago born. Washington made. Handcrafted since 1993.
Built to be felt.
