FYI: Pandora’s Summer 2016 LE Leather Bracelets Are Thread-less

Today’s post will address a small quirk I came across while playing with the new limited edition leather bracelets that have come out for Pandora’s Summer 2016 collection.

I noticed that while both leather bracelets have the round Pandora clasp instead of the traditional barrel clasp, they are also threadless:

I wonder if this was intentional. While all of the Pandora Moments charms will fit easily onto the leather bracelet, there is a very real danger that one could lose charms as the threads provided a small safety net from the charms just slipping right off. One could also put one of the new silicone lined clips or a regular clip right before the thread-less bar, but to me that doesn’t look that great. Here is a snapshot of the Light Blue bracelet next to a traditional leather bracelet:

What do you think of this small quirk? Will it deter you from buying one of the new LE leathers? Don’t forget, today is the first day of the promotion, will you be getting a free leather bracelet or upgrade to a sterling silver one?

    I got 2016 Club charm and Mother of Pearl dangle ( I gave this to friend as her birthday gift and I have 2 Mother of pearl charm as a set ) pay upgrade for silver bracelet. I don’t like the silver part of threadless bracelet look very plain, I only like the round clasp so I got Disney Micky bracelet from last promotion. Nothing much I need urgently, I am collecting retired two tone charm.

    Eugh I hadn’t realised that! Or if I had, I’d forgotten. 😛 I had planned to just put a couple of charms on mine loose but don’t want them to go flying off. It’s a little bit annoying, I can’t really see the sense in not having threads on the end for a leather bracelet. It’s not like you’re going to be screwing lots of charms on and off them anyway.
