How do our armbands compare...

...to other armbands?

Our Libreband straps are made of neoprene which makes them more comfortable than straps made of elastic, and they dry quickly too.

Librebands have been extensively tested for durability in a variety of situations including at a water park, in a sauna and whilst participating in a wide range of gym classes, from yoga to more hard-core body combat. Previous customers include a competitive swimmer and several triatheletes!

Librebands are available in a range of colours intended to match in with current trends in sports and lounge wear. The faceplate designs allow wearers to make a positive statement about their condition, and the straps are individually edged to complement the design. All production and assembly is carried out in the UK.

Libreband is only available from Love My Libre® Ltd.

Cheaper armbands on Amazon have many limitations and typically state:

"If there is excess strap after you have adjusted the product to fit, this can be cut off with scissors and the end can then be sealed with a flame to ensure a clean edge... If the band is cut shorter, super glue should to be applied to the ends. Please be aware that using a naked flame to seal edges of the strap may result in burn marks on the fabric" - product sold on Amazon.
