The material seems sturdy enough but the stitching on the seams show signs of stress after the first few workouts. There are nylon straps for the forearm and wrist straps but no way to adjust them. When some of the larger students put them on, the stitching for the nylon straps showed immediate signs of stress.
The targets were nice and thick covered with a seemingly resilient and durable faux leather covering. But they weren't as big (surface area) as the last ones we bought several years ago. These were more expensive. Also, the last ones had a velcro strap on the forearm to adjust to size.
They are perfectly functional but the reduced surface area makes teaching junior instructors how to hold targets a challenge due to the necessity of precise targeting.
The primary immediate concern is the stitching and lack of adjustment on the forearm. Otherwise a functional target.
Would probably purchase again for the advanced class.
