Has anyone else noticed them? I first saw them on the flight in from Paris. I asked a good friend involved in the fashion industry in Madrid and she said it was the latest thing.

I have seen those in Madrid for more than a year or two, and a friend of mine, who is Peruvian, told me she had used them in Perú much before they were fashionable in Spain.

Hardly the "latest" thing! They've been around on both sides of the pond for at least three years.

We got them here Down-under, and I actually own one but not for everyday use,only on occasions called for.

Out of curiosity,ladies, how safe are these straps? Do they stretch as some plastic does?
Thanks!

Depends on how you want to use them. Pretty safe and very flexible. Just be careful not to overstretch them.Good news is they dont need washing,just a little wipe every now & then.

I don't wear them...seems a little edgy to me.

But Cali ....

The above mentioned straps are very useful for invisibly attaching those little extras one needs onto ones bicycle, and making everyone wonder 'How does he do that?'

You can buy them separately from the bras so you are free to find a multiple of uses for them
