Description of Leg Shield Reflective Ankle Bands: Large Surface Area, Bright Neoprene Straps for Biking, Running, Walking - Protects Pants from Chain!

We firmly believe these are the best Ankle Bands you can buy. Designed with one of the largest Reflective Surface Areas: 1.8 inches in width versus .5 to 1.4 for competing bands and 360 degrees. Very bright and much more reflective than bright colors at night. Sold in a 2 or 4 band option. High-Quality: Made with a thin layer of flexible neoprene, premium hook and loop fastener straps, and strong stitching. Very bright and visible from at least 750 feet. Featured in Bicycle Quarterly, Bike Commuters, Campfire Cycling, Brit + Co, The Cycle, and Adventure Cycling. Protects pants from bike chain: bands stay in place and are secure. Excellent for biking, running, and walking. Fits most adults. Fits ankle sizes between 7.5-12.5 inches in circumference, not including pants. If you have large ankles or plan to wear over heavy/multiple layers, please measure beforehand as they may be too small.

Great but could be a little longer for use over clothing.

I chose these wristbands to be more visible when cycling between cars. The bracelets are well made and as far as I can tell they are high quality materials. Reflectivity is extremely effective. The only thing that bothers me is the length. They are good when used without clothes. But when worn over my fleece-lined winter cycling pants, they stay put. However, I can clip them over my pants; but I'm a skinny guy. Heavier guys may want to measure their length to make sure they fit. The velcro…

  • Confident

Anything that increases visibility helps with cycling and walking.

Seems like a good idea for my adult son who sometimes rides a bike in the dark but he wouldn't use it. He was ready to put on the headlight and taillight he was given, so at least that helps. If I were driving at dusk I would wear them. I have been teaching bike safety to school children for years and anything that makes you more visible is very helpful. My biggest safety tip for cyclists after years of working with young people with head injuries: Always wear a good bike helmet, every ride…

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others

Ideal for running or walking at night!

I run and walk at night and needed reflective ankle tape. I wasn't sure if the size would fit me right, so I also ordered some reflective wristbands. As the wrist strap wraps around my ankle, it leaves the velcro exposed because it doesn't wrap completely. However, the ankle straps are long enough not to expose the velcro, which is perfect! I was planning on bringing back a couple of the reflective strips that didn't fit my ankles properly, but I chose to keep the bracelets on my wrist as they…

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • hard to say

I think these straps, more than any of my other reflective gear, were the best purchase ever. I'm a runner, cyclist and motorcyclist, so making myself visible to cars is my number one priority. I have reflective strips in different colors, all fluorescent colors for vests, jackets and tops and a huge collection of lights. What I love about these ankle straps is that they emphasize bio-motion, which makes people notice moving things much quicker, such as B. a person walking with lights on their…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Firstly, this is by far the brightest reflective item I have ever purchased and I have 20+ bracelets, armbands, anklets, lanyards , west, . Photons seem to hate this material: every single photon that collides with it immediately turns around and goes back where it came from. You will be seen when you wear this. They are so bright that they can be seen from space. :) Second, the customer service couldn't be better. I ordered wrist and leg bracelets but only received the bracelets. I contacted…

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Wear them how you want and enjoy the world

They did their job and more. I chose them as my first visibility item and wear them at night for running and walking. I wanted something detachable that could be worn with any jacket and had to be effective. I looked at others that also featured bright colors, but over time I realized I just needed a reflective piece (both for fashion and functional reasons) and found this one. The photos of the products have convinced me and I can confirm their true potential. As everyone else has reported…
