It was a relief to find this product on Amazon Marketplace despite that fact that is is way more expensive than if purchased in the stores. Unfortunately the belted shield with TAB is not available in stores these day only with BUTTONS which is preferred.

Product arrive on schedule.

Depend Belted Shields (Undergarments), Extra Absorbent with Velcro Tabbed Straps, up to 65" waist, case of 120. (217-0587)

The adhesive that hold the blue tabs in place does not hold them. The tabs pull off almost before use. Some are sliding off before use.

I have used the Depend belted shields for many years. They are just right for my needs. And I find that I prefer the Velcro fasteners. One of the greatest frustrations is the incompatibility of the button and Velcro tabs, so I have made it a point to double-check to be sure that I have purchased the right style. In fact, I got rid of ALL my button-style Depends and straps.

Now I discover that Kimberly-Clark has stopped making shields with Velcro fasteners. They are only available from suppliers with an inventory, and only available on-line.

I wrote the company, but the only satisfaction I received was a courteous form letter and a couple of coupons.

I will continue to purchase the belted shields with Velcro "Tabbed Strips" from this supplier as long as they are available.

I,think they are a little costly for the elderly that need them on a fixed income. I like the product and they are shipped quickly when ordered.
