good quality in Reflective Gear

Quality fastener and decent elasticity. I bought it to attach to a rifle sling and backpack for added visibility during hunting season.

Pros
  • As far as satisfied
Cons
  • Not fashionable

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Can be used anywhere

I bought this forearm strap while hunting - it's a bit small for my biceps (and I don't have huge Hulk arms). Forearm over long sleeve shirt - stayed out of sight until I had to raise the gun in the air and I could stand up straight and shoot. let him wear it for halloween.

Pros
  • Highly rated by testers for support and durability
Cons
  • Fits

Makes you much more visible in traffic!

I said the same for the yellow band. Needs a third [3rd] latch to be more secure on the arm (unless you're a bodybuilder with limited muscles) as it tends to slip off my arm after a few miles of hiking. Other than that, it looks good on my feet and makes me feel more confident when walking the city streets or riding my motorbike day and night.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Not automatic

It's great to be visible on night hikes!

I liked these arm/leg bands so much that I ordered two [2] yellow and two [2] orange. I train a lot ahead of the 500 mile El Camino de Santiago de Compostela and it protects me from hitting vehicles when I'm on the road. The only thing I wish the manufacturer had done differently is to add a third [ 3rd ] snap instead of two [ 2 ] . This band loosens a little after the second click and is difficult to hold on to. Works great on my legs, but my arms aren't as big as my legs. Suggest adding a 3rd

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Durable

Makes you much more visible in traffic!

I said the same for the yellow tape. Need a third [3rd] bar to hold your arm more securely (unless you're a bodybuilder with limited muscles) as it tends to slip off my arm after a few miles of hiking. Otherwise, it looks great on my feet and I feel a lot more confident when I'm wandering the city streets or riding my motorbike day and night.

snug around ankle, stays in place (maybe see update)

I've been using twisted spring closures for years, but no one seems to make good (too tight and too tight) bindings, even if they do are taller/longer), so I'll try. The slightly stretchy fabric construction is very comfortable and the buttons are secure. I know some people prefer velcro so they can adjust the fit, but I hate velcro because it inevitably destroys "functional" fabrics that accidentally come into contact with the hook portion of the velcro. The clasps on this item are less…

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
