I'm not certain about the jades, as I've not owned one. Maybe thin-medium thickness, somewhat stretchy and fairly grippy. (By stretchy, I mean a bit of bouncy-give, rather than sitting solid and unmoving, and by grippy I mean as opposed to being slidey or slippy).
IT's ok as a shortie - though I found it not quite supportive enough, I think I prefer something with less 'give' in a shortie. The grippiness I don't like in a long wrap. I'm a bit fussy. I've tried too many wraps now!
This probably makes no sense to you at all! I remember reading stuff like this about 9 months ago and thinking WTF are they on about and do they not realise it's just a bit of cloth?!

I think they're a good wrap, actually, based on views of many, many others.
