Paracord bracelet: useful survivalist tool, or over used fashion statement?
Any bracelet is a fashion statement.
Something which has use but is also worn as a fashion statement because it's cheap. So, both.

I don't care, neither should you
just wear it if you need it whether that's for making a lasso to catch a bear or because you like to wear it

Neither. Their only use is for YT content creation.
Recently all the normie females started wearing "Canada Goose" parkas. Of course they don't need $700 expedition-ready coats to make Starbucks runs; they want to demonstrate how outdoorsy and adventurous they are. Paracord bracelets fill a similar niche in that while they are legitimately useful in some circumstances, they are overwhelmingy bought for the cultural associations.

Neither. It looks stupid, and the paracord will get dirty and worn if you ever actually need it.

The kind of people wearing those bracelets are not likely to make use of paracord if the need arises.
Just buy paracord and wrap it around stuff you carry on you. I usually attach a good amount to my knifes. No need for buying what is equivalent to a fidget spinner.

To your knives? Also, plural? Shit, I just clip 30' or so to my bag with a mini biner.

If you're lost, you can suck the Cheetos dust out of it for substances.
meme present from nieces and nephews. leave it around as a memento to remind you that people love you.
>>1066638
Yes.

As somebody who wears 2 of these, I can tell you it's not very useful. Cobra weave bracelets take several aeons to untie, and you're not gonna have much more than 10 feet once you do. I pretty much just wear them out of habit at this point.

I think its trendy bs but I've never had any.

Cobra weave a shit. Gator weave ftw. Only problem is it takes a while to tie back up. Ignore typographical errors in link, first hit on Google.
