What is the material it is made from? I am very allergic to neoprene and have to avoid it. Is there any odor to the product?

There doesn't seem to be an odor. I no longer have the box, so don't know about the neoprene content. There is a spongy pad that is covered on each side of the ankle. I slit the cover and removed the pads since they left an impression on my ankle.

No odor at all! Not sure what material it's made from but it helps my aching ankle

i think i remember reading that it is green, but as a precaution, i opened and laid it out in the sunshine for 6 hours. there is absolutely no odor. i worked in the flooring industry for 30 years and am very familiar with the odor of carpet pad, which is a petroleum based product. also, the cover is bamboo. i am thrilled with the product.

Mine was the original AirHawk made from neoprene rubber. I chose this over the polyurethane AirHawk 2 because it is supposedly more durable. More about this on the AirHawk website (AirHawk.net). The one I bought seems to be high quality and works as advertised.

It's a quilted material mine did not smell at all we have had a lot of luck. And I love having him so close to me. However as a newborn he hated it because of the falling reflex he does not like sleeping on his back so he went into a rock and play sleeper the best invention ever then we transitioned him to this and eventually the crib

We returned ours because the sizing chart wasn't accurate....we meant to purchase another but never got around to it. I will try to help from what I remember.....It was very good quality. Any life jacket will restrict some movement...but they will definitely be able to navigate. Neoprene is the breathable material that is used in things like wet suits.....it is a very comfortable material .....hope this helps :)

Hello Clark, Did not notice any smell not sure what material is made of. Will say it is a very warm cover.

hmm I don't have it with me, but it's not neoprene. It's stiffer and less sweaty.

It's made of a durable stretch material, 65% Neoprene, 20% nylon, 15% polyester. The manufacturer recommends hand wash and air dry. I've used mine many, many times ... still functions like new. The re-useable ice pacs are not quite cold enough for my liking ... but over all it's a very well made product.

It is padded neoprene? I took this backpacking to Philmont, NM for an 11 day, 100 mile hike in the back country. It was great. I've taken it on a few hikes since then. Very durable.

I would describe these as neoprene. They have a rubber style grip on the inside. I hope this helps.

There is no indication that they contain neoprene, hence no health warning. Since there is no stretching involved, there is no reason that neoprene would be used.

The neoprene is designed to hold your sweat and not move. Mine is very snug, and after an hour workout, it is difficult to get off.

No handles, unfortunately. I wish there were, and actually thought about sewing some on somehow. There was no neoprene odor at all.

Tough question to answer... is this an odor from the silicone material or from being used?

It has almost no smell. The very faint smell it has is like lotion, not fragrance. It could be slightly like element's glue, but I don't notice any smell when I have it on.

Not sure if its a fabric but there is a coating on the rubber. It does have an odor but I put a twin sheet over it and it is fine. I own two, one for our summer home which is a different size that the one I have at home. It has made a huge difference for me. I plan to tell my doctor (specialist) about the product when I see her this month.

I could smell material (plastic type) when I took it out go the box, but nothing after that. No smell that would cause me not to use it. Thx. Good luck.
