Gear types

Events where your gear takes center stage (and a maximum of 3-4 other gear items). Curated by us for you.

Gear tags

Alternatively, you can also search by tags. Here you will find all events where the exact tag is included in the event title or description.

Latex, neoprene, PVC, etc.

Leather, Biker, MX etc.

Uniform, workwear, etc.

Sports gear, sneakers, show-off stuff, etc.

Puppy, Pet-Play etc.

We assign gear types manually to ensure that you (hopefully) find all events here, but only those that focus on your chosen gear – even if certain keywords aren't explicitly mentioned in the event description. This is time-consuming for us, so we limit ourselves to gear types with a relatively large number of events.  

When searching by tag, you'll only get results where your tag is explicitly mentioned in the event title or description. This is simply the same as the search function under "All Events." Generally, several other gear types are also desired here. Nevertheless, the tag search can help you assess whether the event is well-suited for your gear. 
Also, don't forget: there are also many mixed events where you can wear your favorite gear, even if it's not explicitly mentioned!

in GEAR is an information portal for events featuring gear outfits. in GEAR was born out of the idea of creating an overview of as many gear events as possible. Anyone looking for parties and events for a specific gear fetish should be able to find out what's going on without much effort.
No, we don't offer any events ourselves. We simply collect freely available information about events from other organizers and make it available.
No.
No. We have discontinued the business operations of the site and are now running it again as a hobby/private pursuit.
in GEAR was born out of the idea of providing a clear overview of events in the gay leather and fetish scene. Anyone looking for parties and events for their gear fetish should be able to find out what's going on without much effort.

Not all guys interested in meeting up in Gear have the right options locally. And searching for locals on social media can be very time-consuming and ultimately frustrating – we know this from our own experience. For many, this means they have to travel anyway if they want to meet other people in Gear. Our offer is simply intended to help you get good, quick information to experience great events with hot guys in hot clothes.

We went online in October 2024. Due to the positive response and rapidly growing visitor numbers, we decided in spring 2025 to expand GEAR, implement new features, and further develop the offering. Since this involves increasing costs, we set up GEAR as a start-up to generate revenue to cover operations and development.

We aim to showcase all gear events, from individual events organized by private individuals to large, regular events. We regularly survey over 100 clubs, initiatives, and organizers from German-speaking countries.

This includes all clubs belonging to the umbrella organization of German-speaking gay fetish clubs, a number of other fetish associations and clubs, as well as commercial bars and event organizers. In addition, there are many individual organizers.

We try to be as complete and up-to-date as possible, but we know there's always room for improvement.
Since 2026, we have also been displaying dates for some European clubs. However, we focus on offers that, in our view, are current, technically easy to access, and particularly relevant.
To make it easier for you to find your way around, we've sorted the events by gear type: Puppy / Sports Gear / Leather / Naked / Uniform Work. There, you'll find events that focus on the chosen gear type. This means the event is aimed at those who enjoy wearing an outfit from the respective genre, possibly with a maximum of two or three other gear types. However, that doesn't mean there's always a strict dress code! Whether a dress code applies, or whether you can come to the event dressed normally or in a different gear, is stated in the event description. 

We also have a "Mixed" category, where you can wear any or all kink outfits. Please read the event description for more information on the dress code.
We're working on it. In the future, we plan to offer a feature that will automatically inform you via email and possibly other channels about the types of events and locations you've previously selected. Since this is quite complex and also involves costs for us, this feature will be paid, but as inexpensive as possible (a few euros per month).
We always provide the start time of the event that we know. If there is a difference between the admission time and the start time, we will indicate the start of the admission time.

All times are given in the Zurich/Berlin/Amsterdam time zone.
That's difficult to say in general terms, as clubs, communities, bars, and other event organizers publish their events at very different times. Some plan their programs a whole year in advance, others only a few weeks. We have an algorithm that we regularly query with all event organizers to ensure that as little time as possible passes between the event organizer publishing an event and the event being displayed in GEAR. This is usually just a few days. We're working on further automation, particularly to ensure that we incorporate event organizer changes in a timely manner. Feel free to use our Add Event function; we then add changes or additions, usually within 24 hours.
Add Event
You're welcome to add any events and/or locations that aren't yet listed via the Add Event or Contact pages. We'll usually add your date within 24 hours, but it might take longer (we're also out and about in gear sometimes ;) )!

Highlights are events that are highlighted in the "Highlight" categories. We've introduced Highlights so you can find out about events that don't match your filter criteria but might still be of interest.

The selection of events as highlights is made exclusively by editorial decision. This means we consider which events might be of particular interest to the community, especially those aimed at a wider audience and/or those that are new.
All events remain visible in our highlight list until the start of the event.
We have discontinued this feature because it involves a business activity that we no longer wish to pursue. You are welcome to inform us about an event, but whether it is listed as a highlight is at the discretion of our editorial team.
