I received an email recently asking if smaller size "I'm a Loaner" wristbands would be made available.  The current size stocked is 20cm, although we could get 18cm as well.  Is there anyone out there with skinny wrists that finds the current wristband size to be too large?

YES!!  I can't wear the standard adult-sized stretchy bands (e.g. LiveStrong), they just fall off of me.  I have to buy the child's size in order to keep it on me.  If you are able to offer the smaller size, it would actually stay on my wrist!

Yes!!!!! I can't wear any bracelets that are designed for adults, my wrists and hands are small. I'd love to buy a kiva bracelet if it would fit me.

Since the bands are rubber/plastic... I wonder if cutting a piece out of it, then heating the ends and melting/super-glueing them back together would work.... But, maybe that's overkill. *laughs*

If schools were involved and wanted to recognize kids who had gotten Kiva donations, wristbands might be an incentive.

Hi everyone,

Sorry I haven't been keeping up with this thread.  I did in fact order a small amount of smaller-sized wristbands, due to eisa01's inquiry.  If you'd like one (and you've ordered from KivaStore.org before), send me a PM or use the contact form and I'll send a few out to you.  No charge.
