You can't hide from it, it is the twentieth episode of the Kink Kloset!

Making his Kink Kloset debut is none other than my good friend, Northy! Northy is a Sydney based kinkset who was born and raised over in the UK. His fetish journey started when he was in his early 20's when he mustered up the courage to walk into his first leather bar. That night at The Colherne is where Northy was exposed to skinheads, bikers and leathermen, and knew that he had found his people. From then, he started the process of getting his leathers and ventured out to the other leather bars around London, where he grew into the kinkster we know today. These days, you will find Northy at 'The Hide'. He was one of the founding members and has been with The Hide for three years. He takes great pride in being part of a fetish event here in Sydney, which allows for fellow kinksters to start their fetish journey, just like the bars in London helped him. 

During his youth, Northy knew there was always something different inside of him which he couldn't quite articulate. The lack of representation of leather folx in the media, made it challenging for Northy to connect with his kink side. One viewing of "Relax" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood music video unlocked his kink side. Over the years Northy has grown  fond of the kink community because he has been able to build strong connections with others. Some of his greatest friends he has met in leather bars or during travels to kink events, such as Folsom in Berlin. Northy believes the bonds he has with his fellow kinksters are strong because you all share an unique interest in something which is not commonly seen. He is very glad he has embraced his kink side as it has become an important part of who he is today.
