Detroit, Michigan
Gay-owned leather, fetish, and gear shop on Ferndale's Nine Mile strip.
C&J Hammer Hard is a gay-owned leather, fetish, and apparel shop on Nine Mile Road in Ferndale — metro Detroit's recognized LGBTQ+ neighborhood, not Detroit proper. The store stocks gear-brand staples like Nasty Pig and Oxballs alongside harnesses, jocks, underwear, adult toys, smoke-shop accessories, and Pride merch, which makes it the go-to for fetish and going-out gear in southeast Michigan rather than a drive to Chicago or an online order. The shop is a regular vendor at both Ferndale Pride and Motor City Pride, and the staff is direct about what they sell — they describe themselves as 'proudly selling fetish gear and other gay stuff,' and the room reads unpretentious rather than intimidating. A second location operates nearby in Royal Oak on North Main Street.
