Part of the Gay Denver Guide — bars, events & things to do.

Denver, Colorado
Gay men's shop for underwear, gear, and toys on East Colfax.
Needz bills itself as "An Erotic Haberdashery" — a gay men's shop on East Colfax stocking designer underwear, swimwear, jockstraps, harnesses, and adult toys. It's been open since 2006, and the move to Colfax Ave put it squarely in Denver's Lavender Hill Cultural District, the officially designated gayborhood anchored by The Center on Colfax. The shop's standout feature is CJ's Leather, a custom leather workshop operating inside the store. Carlos Larranaga handmakes chaps, codpieces, paddles, collars, and restraints with 45+ years of leatherworking experience — the only physical CJ's Leather location anywhere. Reviewers consistently praise the try-on-before-you-buy policy and knowledgeable staff.
