NINJA! This is a great product, really durable material, nice metal plate thats like 6-7 inches wide, its is incredibly cool, the logo is nicely drawn. I recommend it for any naruto fan.
A Must Have If you're a Naruto fan and even the slightest bit interested in the Akatsuki or missing nin's in general, this is definitely a product worth having.
I also purchased the normal Leaf Village Logo (Konoha) Headband along with this one and the normal one is basically the same, just the fabric is a different color (much lighter blue), but I love wearing my Anti-Leaf headband even more. The Anti-Leaf headband is not black, but very dark navy blue.
I've bent it out of shape many times, to fit around my neck, my forehead, my upper arm and my thigh and each time it bends right back into it's normal shape with no sign that I ever bent it in the first place. The fabric is long enough so that I can actually tie it around my waist, through the belt loops on my jeans (Ino/Lee/Gai-Sensei style). It's hard to tie since there's nothing but maybe 3 inches to actually tie into a knot. It would have been nice to know how long the ties are, but that's ok.
Roughly, the length of the metal piece is around 6 inches, while its 2 inches wide. There's extra fabric about a 1/2 inch on the top and bottom of the piece. The long fabric used to tie it is 16 inches long on both sides (I would hope so). There fabric behind the metal piece is just slightly passed and there's also a really nice extra piece (attatched on one end and velcroed in the middle and other end) that's also slightly padded. It's not enough padding to make it pop out of your forehead, but just enough to make it comfortable. (The velcro piece also fits around my upper arm pretty well.)
Overall, it's a really great piece and I'm glad I purchased it. I've received tons of comments on it from "What is that?!" to "Omigosh, you watch Naruto!?" and it's really fun. Sometimes I earn an eyeroll or dirty look from people learning it's from a manga/anime but most of the time people just laugh and ask where I got it, and if they could get one too, despite not knowing what the heck it is.
It was what my niece was looking for. Since my niece has gotten into japanimation, her current fascination is Naruto. For months she has been looking for one of these headbands. After much searching, I found several on Amazon. I ordered one for my niece's birthday and she loved it. Everytime she comes to my house to spend the weekend, she has her Naruto headband. Of course, now her younger brother wants one. Whatever will I do????
