TruOffice Economy Black Breakaway Lanyards Round 36-Inch with Swivel Hook, 100-Pack (CLANYEB36BK)

I had to place an order of 5 total sets (500 lanyards) for my business. Once these arrived I was pretty happy, they looked great; everything about them was perfect, until the day of marketing. Upon separating the breakaway I came across the breakaway still being attached but the string being the one separated from the breakaway. (Not too easy to explain, so I have a picture attached to give clarity.) Whomever or whatever tied the knots, didn't tie them big enough to stay attached to the breakaways. With that said, with around 75 to 80 like these I had to for each, untie the small knots, remove the breakaways, replace the string through one side, and retie the knot. This took some time out of marketing. Other than that the only expected issue which is of no ones fault is the strings getting easily tangled especially when wind plays a factor. On a good note through, the swivel hook was amazing.Cons:The breakawayThe tanglingPros:The swivel hook

These lanyards were purchased for middle school ID cards. These lanyards have stood up very well to typical middle school student abuse. the swivel Jhook has held up better than the hooks on our previous lanyards. The clips on our last lanyards would crack and chip. They were also a more difficult to open. ID pouches very easily slide into these clips. Another great feature of these lanyards are the safety plastic breakaway clasp in the back. These are a requirement for use on all lanyards in our school. These are also convenient for separating the lanyards from the pack they are bundled in. These are definitely well worth the price since we have not had to replace many broken one. These are also the perfect length for our middle school students, not too long, not too short.

Functionally, they hold a badge. But some of them didn't breakaway as easily as they should for safety purposes. Few of them did work/break away as they should the first time I tried them. But after putting the pieces back together and trying again it took WAY TOO MUCH force to break apart the two pieces at the nape of the neck if an emergency were to come up.I will still use them, as I will be needing them for an upcoming event. But only till I can find replacements. I was hoping to use these for a youth group trip to a local roller-coaster park and wanted the safety breakaway option for numerous reasons.Growing up, my mom worked as a safety manager in a global chemical company and these would not fly or be acceptable for her labs or company's work.

Good product, just like described. The knots will come untied at first if you pull them off. Simple fix, just re-tie them!

Good, you might have to re-tie a few of the knots.

These are our go-to lanyards for special events. They're sturdy but also have the quick release if you get caught on something or a vicious puma goes after it. Shipping it quick, and the packaging is simple yet functional. The clasp is durable and pivots, too.

The lanyard is thin but can breakaway in case of emergency. Works great for ID badges.

Works as intended.
