Improved, modern range The German company Flexi has improved its entire "Comfort" range. The cords on the "Comfort" and "Comfort Long" models are no longer black as standard but are matched to the colour of the casing. And the tape leash is of a more modern design and trimmed with leather. A chrome-plated hook and the new 3D logo reinforce the high-quality image of the leads.
