The Leather Rack (1723 Connecticut Ave. NW, 2nd floor, 202-797-7401) has for more than three decades been Washington, DC's definitive source for lube, condoms, leather and B&D/S&M gear, dildos, "cock & balls" accoutrements, and other playful bedroom (or perhaps hotel room) toys. It's a very well-stocked place right in the heart of the Dupont Circle neighborhood, along bustling Connecticut Avenue. Open late (till midnight on Friday and Saturday).
