While in town for the Folsom Street Fair’s infamous celebration of leather and sexual liberte, Slutist toured the recesses of The San Francisco Armory, which now houses Kink.com. As a purveyor of BDSM porn since 1997, Kink.com is the dom site with a diverse set of subsites that specialize in a multiplicity of fetishes and proclivities.

Winding through dank dungeons and hallways with heavy duty lube dispensers and openings to austere abattoirs, the guide led a small group of enthusiasts through the ins and outs of their production process and their many permanent sets. The respect the company has for its performers, the BDSM community, and the historic military building that houses them was pleasingly evident throughout the hour and a half we explored the old building. Below is the photographic evidence of this historical site-cum-studio in all its monochrome glory.
