Contest Components

Judging Method

The judges selected are prominent members within and outside the San Francisco leather/fetish/ kink community whom we feel best to embody the ideals and character traits we expect to see in our titleholder. Each represents a different portion of the local, national or international community; and exhibits the sense of citizenship, community, work ethic, and independent character that makes a strong titleholder.

Each Mx. SF Leather judge will score every contestant in each of the categories listed below up to a maximum number of points (designated in parenthesis). To form the final score for the interview category ONLY, a single average score from the three SF Bootblack judges will be added to the scores of each Mr. SF Leather and Mx SF Leather judge. Final category scores for each contestant will then be added together, and the individual with the highest total will be declared “Mx. San Francisco Leather 2022.”

Contestant Judging Categories

Interview in Street/Casual Wear (30 points):

Prior to the evening portions of the contest in an interview open to the public, the judging panel will judge each contestant on their ability to think on their feet, their knowledge of lifestyle-related issues and history, and how they respond to pointed questions asked of them.

Leather Image (20 points):

During the evening portion of the contest, contestants will be judged on their overall leather image while on stage. This will include formal wear when first introduced and bios are read, as well as the overall impression from the judges of the contestants’ “total” leather image throughout the contest. As such, this category is usually scored last. (This does not include what is worn during the meet and greet or the pre-judging interviews.)

On Stage Pop Question and Physique (20 points):

Each contestant will randomly select and answer pop questions submitted by the judges and emcees on stage. The appropriate dress for this section is your sexy best!

Presentation Skills (30 points):

Contestants will not only be judged on stage, but throughout the entire contest, including the continued grab bag “fantasy”, speech, and pop questions. Their overall character will be judged by how they carry and present themselves in ways that represent the ideal Mx. San Francisco Leather.
