Try another brand of you want them to last more then 3 weeks
I hate giving bad reviews. I really do, but even more so I hate buying products that don't live up to their word. Ankle weights should challenge you and make you stronger not slowly leak it's weight while your working out, kind of defeating their purpose. Sadly that's just what these da Vinci weights did. They leaked tiny granules all over the floor mid workout causing quite a mess and ruining my workout. Very frustrating considering I was 3 weeks into adding these to my strength building routine, noticed myself getting stronger and better able to handle the added wait and then BAM now I'm back to working out without weights since I have to return these. If you take fitness seriously you know that kind of setback is pretty disappointing. FYI: I used these weights just for curcuit training with a mat (no running included) and the thread is reaping from the seams on both weights and in different areas. To me, that just adds up to bad craftsmanship.
