This was my first time purchasing wieghts of any type, so maybe it was my bad, but the weights on these are counted by the total weight of both legs. The ten pound ankle weights actually are five pounds each. Very disappointing if you thought the poundage was double what it really was. Also, the total weight is counting those ten pounds of weights that are included; not five pounds of weight base (each leg) plus five extra pounds of weights. That didn't fool me, but it was still written almost intentionally confusing. Other than that, the product feels nice and secure. It doesn't chaffe and I've been wearing them ever since I got them. They only come off when sleep comes on.
