tbh I had no real problems with the armbands last year, to call them shitty would be an exaggeration imo.
a little big for my toothpick arms maybe, but other than that, no complaints.
Yay, airsoft!

Then you didnt see the ones the bandits got.
Much thicker and stiffer material, where the black numbers rubbed off easily and the straps broke off.
Glad I brought a black marker and sewing kit.

We played as UPIR Infantry and our "rubber" armbands were useless. They were too big so we had to tighten them over their intended use. We brought extra pins even and that quickly proved pointless after less than a day since they broke or fell off. All of us ended up using red tape, taping it onto ours arms in order to keep it in place. Glad to hear they will be improved!

PS. The straps broke on some of ours as well.
