What can you say about ankle weights? Given that, I like these enough to own 2 pair! IMO, the design of this ankle weight, with the weight distributed along the entire length, buckle to buckle, rather than a shorter weight attached to webbing at either end, is superior, as is the double-walled construction. Whether on ankles, tank, or tucked into trim pockets, I am rareley without them.

Rating: best ankle weights for the money
Reviewer: william g., Thursday, July 16, 2009 - View all my reviews
The fact that they are well built and will last a long time is beside the point. I have dove regular ankle weights like for the gym. they cant hold a candle to these
while wearing them I forget that I have them on. For my money these are the best thing going.

Toward the end of my dives I have a hard time staying down - especially my legs. The leg weights work perfectly and the stretch material allows me to use them in warm water or cold water (they stretch over my 8mm wetsuit, socks and boots).

Rating: Ankle weights stretched & fit just right
Reviewer: Robin P., Thursday, January 08, 2009 - View all my reviews
I wasnt sure which size to order for my husband and myself to use with drysuits. I wanted them to be snug but not binding while being easy to put on and adjust upward so as not to interfere with the drysuit boot and my fins. These worked perfect! We ordered a regular size and a long size knowing that wed each have a choice and they both worked great for us. They werent constructed quite like the sets Id borrowed from my instructor because his had adjustable straps instead of being stretchy, plus I was initially concerned about the durability of the fabric. After having used them, I think these will work for us for many years to come and will fit a variety of ankle sizes and equipment configurations. If I was an instructor loaning out my equpiment frequently, I would probably opt for the sets with the heavier material though. They came in a handy storage bag which helps keep them together plus allows them to dry even in the bag. We ordered a yellow pair and a green pair and you cant tell much difference in the colors when wet.

Reviewer: larry rukavina, Thursday, September 25, 2008
I found this product to work well in helping me with balance and flotation. Whenever I use my 7mm wetsuit my legs would always try to invert me ( I have long legs ). The ankle weights were just the ticket to resolve this issue. The quality of this product looks and feels good, but time will tell. I am pleased with this product and would recommend these weights to anyone having similer issues.
Sincerely,
Larry Rukavina

Rating: Good weights
Reviewer: Bob D., Thursday, August 14, 2008 - View all my reviews
I use one of these to put on my tank valve to help distribute my weighting better. Works very well for this. The second weight I use as a spare when I find people Im diving with are underweight, nice to have a weight that can be attached at various places. One of them had the outer seams start to come apart, but the inner rubber tube is still intact and there is no risk of the weight emptying unless I cut the rubber. A good sturdy design.

Rating: Comfortable and affordable.
Reviewer: James Groves, Wednesday, August 13, 2008 - View all my reviews
I bought these weights I have started diving with a drysuit and wanted "training wheels" while I got comfortable diving the new suit. I chose these weights because they were available in a heavier weight compared to other ones, and were easier to clip together. I am quite happy with my decision.

Love ankle weights. I have 4 pairs for the family and got these bright yellow ones so they could see dad amongst the other human seals. Perfect for my OW classes where students have a hard time telling whos who. Bright yellow shines thru even in the lowest vis situations.

Rating: McNett Ankle weights have helped with bouyance
Reviewer: Dr. William Flory, Sunday, June 10, 2007 
When I dive in cold water with a thicker suit and use heavier tanks and the use of longer lighter fins, I tend to become top heavy with feet that want to float. Adding ankle weights helps correct the balance for a more natural position, providing good balance and effeciency

Rating: Nice Weights
Reviewer: James C., Thursday, March 15, 2007 - View all my reviews
I am quite pleased with these ankle weights and they are perfectly adequate at doing what they are suppose to do. The only reason for not giving this 5 stars is I except something extraordinary to rate 5 stars and lets face it, it is hard for weights to be extraordinary!
