These are okay. They do work, but there bond provides a lot of bulk. After purchasing these I became aware of the Velcro brand Reusable Self-Gripping Ties which come with 50 in the pack and was MUCH happier with those. Those are much more compact and don't have a "fuzzy" part like these Belkin ones do. Also, these Belkin ones have a tag that says "Belkin" on them that stick out which further adds to the bulk of the tie you are trying to make.
