I am 27F and dress sporty/casual and I live a fairly active lifestyle. I’m indecisive and looking at this band. Does anyone have and love for both style and purpose?! Thanks!!

    I just bought a sports band from Nomad with this newfangled closure. Personally I would recommend a more classic style closure, with the lever that goes through the hole and locks stuff down.

    Reason: you could very easily pop this off your wrist playing sports. One tug on the tucked-in end and my watch would be hitting the ground at 9 meters per second squared.

    Why? Because it’s just stuck on a tiny 1/3 inch post. Looks cool but that’s style over function. I would NEVER recommend swimming with this closure - recipe for sending your watch to the bottom of the pool / lake / ocean.

    I own this one but it has a pink hue under most lighting. I’ll probably return it for the black or white spackled band

    If you’re a big sweater this style is good but if you want something a little more feminine the sports loop is great

    Apple should’ve made silicone cases for iPhones with this same stuff. Some idiots on crack came up with “Fine woven” crap and ruined it for everyone.

    Got that band. I really like it, but not as much as I thought I would from pictures. The specks (at least on mine, might be different on other ones) are bigger than expected. I’d go see one in person first just to make sure

    you can buy any watch-band from wish and put it into the washing machine. add multi-colored napkins for additional effect.

    I have this band and love it. It’s super comfortable, adjustable, and it breathes really well. I’ve had mine for at least a year now and have had no issues with it

    I have the white one with the starlight watch. It reminds me of sprinkles and it looks really nice with the color of my watch.
