I like that these are more made from a lighter weight leather then the average cuff. They are really nice in the California heat. I won't say that they don't get sweaty, but it's much better. They aren't so thin that I am worried about them ripping, but light enough that it is noticeable.

All of the metal pieces are sturdy, but that leads me one of my complaints. These aren't lined. This means that the metal rivets sit on the skin which is not good for those of use with metal allergies. This is a problem that can be fixed with some clear nail polish, but over all, I feel for the price, this could have been dealt with.

I apparently have an odd size of wrist. Cuffs intended for women are often too small for me while cuffs designed for men end up too loose. These are perfect. I sit right in the middle of the options. That being said I am 6' tall, so very petite women may want to shy away from these.

Honestly, these are a nice set of beginners cuff for those that know they want to play a little bit harder. the buckles don't have loops for locks, so you can still fairly easily get out of them, but they will hold up a lot better then what is on the market currently.

The packaging was simple. They cam in a clear bag with a metal tag. There is no care information included.

To care for your cuffs, you will want to keep them dry and out of direct sunlight. You can wipe them with a damp cloth, but don't get them wet. You can store them just about anywhere you would like otherwise. I store mine cuffed together, but flat is fine too. If they get stiff, use some leather conditioner on them.
