With flashes think of dropping a ring over a Coke bottle. If the ring is large enough to fit over the top/mouth of the bottle but smaller than the body of the bottle the ring will not fall past the neck of the coke bottle. This is the same principle with flashes. Flashes do not have to be tight, they only have to be smaller than the top of the calf. Elastic banded flashes do not need to be any tighter than to put enough tension on clip to prevent opening.

With these types of ties they only should be tight enough to create enough friction to prevent the ties from untying. As long as they don't stretch during the day the smaller ring formed at the top of the calf should not be able to expand over the bigger ring of the body of the calf.

If you check I would give you odds that the average person wears their flashes to tight and limits the circulation in the legs.

Loosen up out there and take it easy.
