Paracord bracelets are in effect survival bracelets because they enable you to carry several feet of Paracord that can be used in an emergency for countless survival applications. The popularity of these bracelets started a few years ago as a practical way for soldiers, firefighters, police and other emergency services as well as outdoor adventurers and to carry some extra 550 cord. The amount varies slightly but basically every inch of your wrist diameter equals approximately one foot of Paracord so a simple bracelet lets you carry 8’ (2.44m) or 9 feet (2.74m) of cord!
