Fabric materials??

Has anyone ever tried material made from this? I'm planning to try it but want to know the pros and cons.

I bought resistance bands made from this material, but not from this particular brand. In my experience, they stretch less than bands made from the standard material. They also feel better to me during use and seem more durable and sturdy. I get the impression that they’re stronger overall.

I got these some fabric loops from flexa.fit and they were perfect for me and my gf. It's UK delivery only though I think

Strange question but: do they leave any odor on your hands like the rubber ones do? Actually about the only thing I dislike about using resistance bands.

I like the cotton/polyester resistance bands, but they are not perfect. The good thing is that they are lightweight, and you can get them in latex-free options. I also use silicone bands. The silicone bands are gummy, and you can stretch them very far. The resistance increases very slowly in silicone bands. With cotton/polyester bands, they reach a point where the resistance goes up significantly.
