My kids are into these, and the first one that broke (10 minutes later) was when I discovered this.

My kids are into these, and the first one that broke (10 minutes later) was when I discovered this. So the NEW cheap ones also are made of tape measure material.

They also make these as beer coozies now. I actually bought one that is also a tape measure on the outside. Works great for sewing projects

Pretty sure everyone knew that.

And Gen X were well into their adulthood when these were popular. So, I’m guessing you might be a tad younger than us.

These were popular when I was in high school 88-92. Hardly well into adulthood.

Well I was in college. An adult.

And what high schoolers would even have sported them? They were for like 5th graders.
