The last pair we had, very similar to these, broke. Hubby is just too strong. How much pulling will they take?

Cari, unfortunately haven't had the occasion to use them yet so regrettably can't answer your question.

I am assuming that when you say that they broke, you are referring to the metal clasp that secures the cuffs to either each other or to the tie system. While this set is an excellent value, it is possible for the metal pieces to be bent and rendered ineffective by a strong individual. The issue does not resolve itself when you move up in price and quality. I would recommend purchasing a few "Carabiner" climbing clips. They are extremely cheap and can be found online or at most hardware stores. They are what I personally use during performances involving full body suspension.

in this case I would highly recommend chains and padded cuffs... The restraints are secured with velcro and they clip to the straps with what looks like a key chain clip...

As a female i had one of the rings bend out of shape a little with me pulling against them...assuming he is stronger than i am it could be an issue.

Not even close. We like them for light use, but I don't think these would hold up to even a little abuse.

Tie them very tight. Never had a problem with my 10.5 month old. He hasn't even tried!

break them in 1/2 if they are too large for you. break them in 1/4 if you want. They aren't time release so it won't matter.

They're more of a stronger material so it's very hard to get pulls in them. One would have to try quite hard to accomplish this. I'd suggest ordering 1 size up than what one wiuld normally wear as it doesn't offer much of a stretch.

It's hard but you just have to pull and twist and pull......... Won't buy these again.

This about the same but will give you slightly more. If you purchase be careful with the Velcro adjusting straps from really pulling on them I broke mine.

They are VERY strong. I have stretched them over large boxes of cereal. No problem. Over shoe boxes, no problem. Larger than that, I haven't tried.

The durability sucks. My 85 pound retriever mix wore them once and pierced them with his nails. I'll give them their due, they stay on the dog. But tightly.I switched to booties that use Velcro to stay on and have a rugged set for my other dog and a durable set for the aforementioned dog. These work great and you can find them also on Amazon.com. The company is debnroo. Good luck!

I would try it. It will definitely support their weight as long as you can handle them pulling. Much easier than 2 separate leashes.

Yes a couple. If you pull too hard they will snap. It's just a matter of getting used to how they work - the clothes don't slide off like plastic or wood hangers, but then that's the idea of the non-slip. I still like them in general.

I'm sorry but I can't help you since I bought these for my Mother-in-law and she can't tell me....however remember that this is Amazon.com so if they are not what you can handle you can always return them......

I was firing these from my 65# compound bow. They shattered after about 6 pulls each. On a 40 # recurve, there shouldn't be a problem

I have few of them and two elastic broke on me. So I can't even use them. I didn't try that yet. And I don't think I will. I think it would be a pain in the butt.

The webbing is tightly woven but I have no idea of the minimum breaking strength. The manufacturer is the best resource for this question.

We had the same problem! My husband ended up popping them out with a hard kick. They didn't break but I think we were lucky!

I don't have an absolute answer. I'd just try to pull on one side, then another, etc. Hope you can get them apart soon. If not, I'd send them back. They should have had something between them to keep them separate.
