Ok feedback time.

I always comment on how good Animalpak and Universal products are but on this occasion I have nothing positive to say on the straps except that they are a good length and the embroidered logo is good.

I have had 2 pairs of these now and both have had the stitching come undone, I think this is something that needs to be looked into, I understand they are mass produced but quality is something Animalpak/Universal is known for and stands for.

Both straps on both pairs have the stitching come undone, ok I sewed them back again but thats not the point, the stitching needs to be stronger and tested.

I have had these straps for less than 1 month, deadlifts, rows and chinning is all they have been used for.

Good post bro.

I have not had the chance to use the new straps yet, but I have heard this a few times already..

Definately needs some looking into though. For the stitching to be coming undone so easily, that does not seem right..

We all know Animal straps were made for proper Animal style lifting.. hopefully something can be done,
and this can be properly looked into..

Yeah I`m hoping to get some response as I seem to have some real trouble getting my mails and PMs answered conclusively.

hmmm, more feedback from others is needed here, maybe I have been unlucky but then again they should have been checked before being sent out from production.

Do you mean the stitching on the logo or the straps themselves? Can you be specific?

I've not heard of this before. We will get you out a set of replacement straps. PM me your information and we will get it taken care of.

On the actual flap over creating the loops NG, the embroidered stitching is fine.

I've had the straps since they first came out and haven't had this problem. And trust me, I've been working the fuck out of those straps. The only thing I've noticed is that I'm getting some scarring around my wrists, but I guess that would happen with any straps if you're going heavy enough.

I had the straps for about a month prior to leaving them in a locker room. :-( but anyway, i didnt have any problem with them. I liked the fact they were a little longer and i could get them around the bar almost 3 times. Not to mention the infamous logo on the side. As for the wrist slicing, nothing you can do unless animal wants to put a pad on the inside. But why should we care about a wound from lifting?
