Bait And Switch
Perhaps the item pictured is great, but what the seller will send you instead is a horrible substitute. ***The substitute item is cheaply made, size XL, and has an ugly 2-inch "bow-type-monstrosity" near the thumb. I would advise against ordering this "substitute" product. (I was sent the wrong item, as was another customer on here, so I can only rate what I was sent). If you want what is pictured, I would advise looking for an alternative seller. TIGHT FITTING CORDERED BLACK LONG ARM WARMERS W/THUMB
I was very excited to get these since I have long arms and figured that these would help cover my wrists in the cold. They do that, however the product is CHEAP! I've worn then for less than a week and they are already starting to fray! don't buy this product, I was very disappointed!
I really wanted these to fit my hands and arms. They were way too big and I'm not exactly petite. The hand portion could easily fit someone with very large hands and very long fingers. Now to wear them, I have to find alterations that I can do myself. NOT tight fitting!
I ordered this armwarmers in black, but istead I was sent a completely different thing. I got a pair of black, elbow-length armwarmers, with a horrible little flower near the thumbhole. I dont think it's a very reliable seller.
The item I received is nothing like the item pictured or described. It is a cheaply made cable knit arm warmer. Very large, loose fit. Also had the ugly flower type thing near the thumb hole. Fortunately they are so cheaply made that the flower thing pulled right off. I will never order another item from this seller and believe Amazon should no longer offer their items as the "bait and switch" they pull seems to be consistent judging from other reviews. I expect better from Amazon vendors.
SAVE YOUR MONEY! DON'T BUY THESE! The picture shown is NOT what you're going to get! The picture shows a snug fitting rib knit style arm warmer. If you look at this same product in other available colors you will see it is plain and straight forward. What you will actually get is a loose fitting, thick, cable knit arm warmer with a "lace up" type design going through the center of the warmer from top to bottom (which by itself is kinda cool)and would have been fine-ON THE RIB KNIT STYLE THAT I ACTUALLY ORDERED!! BUT.....and this is the biggie....it's bad enough that it's a loose cable knit, but just to the side of the thumb hole is the ugliest, most ridiculous, crocheted, two-layer flower!! It's hideous! No one other than my 80 year grandma and my 5 year old niece would actually want to wear it! The cardboard "tag/hanger" it comes on even says it's for girls. How on earth they can stay in business with false advertising, ripping people off is beyond me, but I strongly advise you to look else where.....unless you like being disappointed!
I was expecting these tight fitting elastic arm warmers and I was really excited. And as soon as I opened the package I was completely disappointed. They were too big and had this ugly looking flower thing on them. They also were knitted and were poor quality. Definitely dont recommend this seller and product.
When I ordered these I needed something to cover my arms. The fabric was itchy and it looked nothing like the picture. They are black with a weird pattern and stupid flowers on each thumb hole. Worst of all though, I tried them on and they pretty much unraveled in my hands. They weren't sown together properly and I couldn't return them. If you buy this, you are getting a ton of itchy yarn not put together in anyway.'
