how durable are firewalker bands?

[mini-natty]

Hello everyone! Right now I am using bands tied up but I would like to invest in firewalkers. They just seem like they are not very durable and might break easily. Has anyone had to replace them often or perhaps get 2 sets? They are a very good price, $11.99/3. Any suggestions/comments would be helpful. Thanks!

I gave my pink band away, but so far the other 2 are holding up just fine.

I haven't had to replace my firewalker bands either - I've had them at least a year. I did order another set - just in case one were to split or something. I had to replace my regular bands once, but I don't take care of them like you're supposed to. I've found that anything Cathe sells on her site is of good quality.

Previous to LIS, I had only used my green one. The pink one had been sitting for at least a year and I wondered how it would hold up when I pulled it out for Turbo Barre. It was fine. What I like most about the firewalker bands as opposed to a band tied up is that the firewalker bands are much more comfortable to use.

I had my firewalker loops for under a year, and the green one broke just the other day
I re-ordered them through Cathe's site though.

Thanks so much everyone! You've helped make my decision an easy one!

If you haven't ordered yet, Amazon sells these as well as Cathe's site. If you order other products as well and at least $25, shipping is free. Right now I have two items in my cart totalling $24.95 (of course)! Hmmm, what else can I buy....
Happy shopping,

Hmmm I have a hard time ordering from Amazon.com. I am from Canada and they are pretty selective on what I can/can't get here. Us Canadians never get FREE shipping! Maybe they think Canada is located on Mars or something. Thanks for the tip though. I love shopping on-line too!

I ordered a bulk box of band material from Amazon and cut my own. it was a lot cheaper that way and I have a lifetime of band material. you need to decide what tension you want. different colors, different tension. I think it's 'theraband".
