Nathan Reflex Reflective Snap Bands Review

Nathan Reflex Reflective Snap Bands
Average Reviews:

...the stiff metal band in the middle, coupled with the hard plastic edge of the covering and the inability to set a fixed tension point (the design ends up tightening the fit more and more as you run), render these bands extremely uncomfortable if worn around the ankles on bare skin, and not much better around the upper arm or (least uncomfortable) the wrist. I guess if you were wearing it over pants or a long-sleeved jacket it would be less of a problem.
I bought this product hoping to use it with my Garmin footpod, but alas the band is actually too wide to fit the footpod's slide-through belt loop casing, so I had to take a pair of utility scissors and trim a part of the band.
Now I will have to try and find an ankle band made of neoprene or some other softer material with a velcro closure or some other means of adjusting the tightness of the fit. Oh well, the pitfalls of internet shopping---not being able to try something on first before ordering.

Nathan L.E.D. Runner's Reflective Vest Review

Average Reviews:

This product is described as "one size fits all". It should be made clear that this must refer to children, as I have a normal sized adult head and it wouldn't even fit over. It reaches just past my breast bone and is completely useless as a safety product for an adult. It is tiny in size.

Jandd Reflective Ankle Strap black Review

I have bought many different ankle straps over the years, but this is the best one I have ever owned. After I got the first one (in my the mail) I immediately order two more just in case I lost one of them. If you are rather large, don't worry, this strap will fit you. It employs the usual velco fastener but also utilizes a buckle type device to make sure you get a good secure fit. When you use this product, you will never have to stop and refasten it, as the strap stays put. I highly recommend this product.

Nathan Streak Reflective Vest Review

Nathan Streak Reflective Vest

I purchased three of these for me and my friends to go running at night. It only fit when we ran in the winter with coats on. When I attempted to wear it in the summer over just a t-shirt, the "adjustability" feature on it really came up short. If I cinched the sides down enough to hug me so that it wasn't flopping around, then the extra flaps of velcro were banging along. If I fixed it so that the velcro wasn't driving me crazy, then it was so loose that it would literally spin halfway around me with every step. After only a few months of use (and I'm NOT hard on stuff like this), the piping around the edges began to pull away. The seams are tiny and grabbing onto mesh, so it isn't surprising...just annoying. I finally bit the bullet and went to my local running store and bought an amphipod brand xinglet, and am MUCH happier. Totally adjustable, very durable and about the same cost as this Nathan vest.

Created for runners who find most vests uncomfortable or performance debilitating, the Nathan Streak reflective vest is ultra lightweight and incredibly comfortable. The vest is made of a soft, lightweight, breathable mesh that's designed to allow a full range of motion and is guaranteed not to ride up. It's almost like wearing nothing at all. At the same time, the 400-candlepower vest offers 360-degree visibility at distances of up to 1,200 feet, so drivers, cyclists, and other runners can see you clearly after the sun sets. The adjustable-fit vest also includes large reflective patches on the chest and waist and reflective strips on the shoulders.
