I just got both my Road ID's. Pretty good, since they just shipped two days ago!
Both of mine (ankle and wrist) are red.
The ankle is VERY comfortable. The neoprene of the strap doesn't cut in at all, the edges are very soft, it stays right where I put it, and I hardly notice it. Even though I have tiny little ankles, the one-size strap fits great. I will need to trim off maybe 1/2 inch of overlap on the velcro. I can tell already that I will wear the ankle all the time, and the wrist will be more for back-up.
The wrist is also comfortable, though it is a stiffer web (not neoprene). If you've ever worn a Timex "FastStrap" you will instantly recognize the fastening for the wrist. Again, I have tiny wrists, but the small wrist ID fits me perfectly. No overlap. I'm asuming it will become more comfortable as I break it in, just like my watch straps.
The red color of both is a visible red. No-one seeing this red is going to assume it is a watch band or piece of jewelry.
The engraving on the info plate is subtle enough that no-one glancing at your wrist in a bar (eh-hem, not that WE ever go to bars) is gonna read your name and get your phone number.
I'm very impressed, and plan to get one for SKnot.
