shackles

Metal cuffs used for restraint of the arms or legs, typically used in a dungeon or prison type setting when not used as an accessory.

They're similar to handcuffs, but are more solid, wider, and frequently depicted as simply a solid band of metal around the leg or arm. They may be attached to something else, such as a wall or a ball and chain restraint. Oni are typically seen wearing shackles.
