Most ankle bands say they are elastic, these really are! That is the secret to them staying up. Pull them snug before engaging the hook and loop (Velcro) closure. Off you go. Recommended.
I bought these on your recommendation. I've used them only one day so far, but I can say that they didn't slip and felt pretty comfortable. Thank you! They seem much nicer than the bands I've been using which don't look radically different, but these white ones are made by someone who did some better design and testing.
