I suggest http://www.idband.net/index.php instead which make silicone wristbands. Not as stylish but a whole lot more practical

Hi Oz,

Thanks for your input. I’ve yet to check out the ID band. I’ll put it on my list. But, I gotta say that my Road ID is very practical so far.

Thanks again.

The Road ID has the edge over the idband for the ability to be able to be updated as one moves home or the emergency contacts details change. Also, as you stated it’s not as stylish and is a lot less durable. I have had a road ID for a number of years without any sign of wear and now I have the interactive version I can make all these changes without needing to buy a new band.

The ID Band is nice, but I prefer the Road ID. I wonder if the ID Band may be overlooked as a simple “cause” band.

I have had a Road ID for over a year and I love it….comfortable and stylish with the piece of mind when out on a long run.

RoadID wristband has a POLYPROPYLENE not canvas band…it does not rot or smell, and it has 2 reflective threads the length of it. There is also a silicone ankle band you can SWITCH the plate onto. All in all, a versatile product. Now with the ELITE, also a stylish version. My kids an I have used the for a year, running, vacations, out of the country. Peace of mind.

I LOVE my Road ID. My whole family has one. I nver go to a race without it. I find people are intrigued by it and want to know what that cool bracelet is. I’ve also worn the ankle band and its very comfortable.

I have a RoadID, and i bought one for several of my closest friends as Christmas gifts. The mother of one of the recipients said it was a very thoughtful gift :-)
I love it…even if the colour has never been the same since i wore it an adventure race!

just got my elite band. wore it to a track workout, and the metal id plate, slid around to the metal closure plate. I was surprised it was this loose. i could slide it back, but during the next interval, it would again slide back out of position

The interactive is a joke – all it does is build a recurring revenue stream for Road ID – do you really think a First Responder will call for your Med History when you’re laying on the ground – No they won’t. Their job is to stabilize and mobilize. So what if you have a known heart condition or allergy to latex – guess what – EMT don’t know that! Plus those ids are just big and bulky and now way would I load up my arms with that ID, plus my LIVESTRONG, plus watch. really – I’ll leave that for the “Freds”.

I agree that the interactive is not practical and most likely a revenue stream for RoadID — and a database builder. A similar and cheaper alternative is a band from crosstrainid.com. I’ve also heard that they are coming out with a watch ID in the near future – might be worth watching for it. I wear the crosstrainID while training — marathons and tri’s — makes my wife (and me) feel better knowing I have it on.

The clasp on the silicon Road ID elite band will not hold up. The first one lasted about a month and the second one which is only a couple of months old has also failed. If you are an athelete this band is not for you. If they just used a regular buckle it would be more practical.

For anyone considering the Road I.D. Elite — be very careful when cutting the strap to fit. I cut mine too short, and they won’t sell you just the silicone strap — you have to buy the strap and the buckle for about a third of the cost of the original purchase. Big waste of money, and not very good customer service.

goodnew! we offer top qualitty proudcts.such as:<a href=“www.powerbalancesbracelet.org”><strong> power balance wristband</strong></a>.<strong><a href=“www.powerbalancesbracelet.org”>power balance</a></strong> band.the price of all producs are lower .best service for you !

I do not have a pet, but I purchased the Road ID Scout. The one for a dog collar for your pet. I will place this on my watch band as it is meant for a 1 inch wide dog collar strap, so I do not have to wear another band.

I was told by my GP that I need to wear an Identity wrist band. As I am a diabetic with other added medical conditions. I want to have information on this item and prices
Thank you.
