Feels sturdy and well made. The length is good, but on the small side in circumference; I have thin arms, but there's still a gap of about 1.5 inches when laced up tight. Works fine for me, but potentially an issue on bigger arms. I wish it came with a longer lacing cord or a pair of laces; the leather cord it comes with is sturdy but short enough to make it difficult to tie a secure knot. Two laces would make it easier to lace/tighten with one hand (for a meet-in-the-middle style lacing), but the cord is easily replaced with a shoelace, etc. Still a good product worth 5 stars.
