If we didn't spend all our piles of sex blogger cash (ahem) on Cheez Doodles and bourbon we might someday be able to afford some of the stunning fetish gear created and sold at San Francisco's own Design Within Reach for kink, Mr. S Leather. (We'd also be able to afford showing some of it off at IML this weekend, but that's another story.) Until then, we'll just have to ogle the delicious daddyscape in their catalogue photos—and enjoy owner Richard "Big Daddy" Hunter's very hands-on approach to customer service. After the jump, check out Hunter's double-tasking product testing and sales techniques on the showroom floor (complete with wayward bootlickers) and see what makes Mr. S a must-visit during any trip to San Francisco no matter what color hanky we happen to be sporting. (Today: Light pink, left pocket. In case you were wondering.) -V. Blue
