The Apple Watch Series 7 reinforces Apple’s position as one of the most versatile wearables on the market today, with both features and flexibility. In a market where aesthetics are paramount, the ability to swap bands with different designs and materials puts the Apple Watch firmly in fashion territory. While Apple offers a range of premium bands, the world of third-party Apple Watch bands ranges from cheap bands to French fashion houses.
        We’ve rounded up a wide range of watch bands and straps in a variety of styles and prices to add some oomph to your Apple Watch on your wrist. No matter what generation of Apple Watch you own, these bands will work with your device because Apple has made the connection of the band to the watch backwards compatible. If you want to upgrade to a new Apple Watch, you may find that your old bands still work with the new model.
        Let’s start with the many straps that Apple sells for their watches. This small sample reveals the depth and variety of Apple Watch accessories.
        It seems that Apple always finds a way to combine fashion and utility. With the Apple Braided Solo Loop, you’ll wear a durable strap made from stretchy recycled yarn intertwined with silicone threads. The result is a very comfortable yet durable strap that fits snugly around your wrist and doesn’t slide around. The Solo Loop is compatible with Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Series 4 or later, just make sure you measure your wrist correctly to get the right size. Since the Solo Band does not have a buckle or any other means of reducing the size, you need to make sure it fits correctly.
        We love the look of the Apple Sport Loop. The nylon material is soft, not hot or sweaty, and the various colors are more realistic and attractive than the pictures. Instead of a pin buckle system like on a sports strap, the sports loop uses hook-and-eye closures for an infinitely adjustable fit that fits everyone. Perfect for the gym, office, and casual wear, this Apple Watch band will be your first choice when shopping for a watch.
        This is a very expensive group, but not in vain. The Midnight Modern Buckle is crafted from premium stretch Granada leather that has been lightly sanded and tumbled to create a soft yet durable material. Apple has added Vectran fabric for extra durability (so they should last longer than your Apple Watch), the same material that NASA uses to make airbags for landing rovers. The buckle isn’t really a buckle either, it’s a two-piece design that attaches with a magnet for easy fastening. A classic silhouette with a futuristic design, the Midnight Modern Buckle lives up to its name.
        If metal is more your thing, Apple has got you covered. The company’s stunning Milanese loop is a modern interpretation of a design developed in Milan at the end of the 19th century, made of stainless steel in gold, silver or graphite, wrapping around the wrist and adjustable with magnets. Apple’s Link Bracelet, meanwhile, has a butterfly clasp inside the bracelet for a neat look. The built-in unlock button also makes it easy to add or remove links without special tools.
        Apple Watch Studio, the purchasing program introduced with the Apple Watch Series 5, is a great way to get the exact band and watch combination you want for the first time. Instead of buying a ready-made combination of Apple Watch and band, you choose every aspect, including the size and material of the case, as well as the band. If you want the 44mm Aluminium-Silver Apple Watch with Space Gray Milanese Strap, you can get it. There is no additional cost to set up, and creating your own watch on the Apple website is easy and fun.
        Even though Apple offers a lot of great and professional straps for its watches, the company understands its customers and their tastes are not limited to branded stores. Therefore, Apple encourages the participation of third-party vendors. Here are some favorites from independent vendors.
        There are several Nomad straps on this list, and for good reason. They are high quality and stylish. Modern is a slimmer version of the Modern Strap. Made by renowned Chicago tannery Horween, this vegetable-tanned leather strap develops a beautiful patina over time. Nomad uses stainless steel for the buckle and adapter that attaches to the Apple Watch. It’s light, comfortable and nice to wear on the wrist, and the buckle closure means it’s super easy to put on. reward? It only works with smaller Apple Watch sizes of 40mm or 38mm.
        Kades Apple Watch bands are an affordable way to connect stainless steel watch bands. Like most stainless steel straps, it features a double butterfly clasp that is easy to adjust with detachable links. It is available in silver stainless steel and black.
        Tired of the old leather and silicone straps that are common to your Apple Watch? Check out the Meridio suede strap, which is unlike anything else on the market, yet still pairs smartly with both casual and elegant outfits. Meridio is an Italian brand with over a decade of experience in fashion and leather goods. The suede strap feels soft, elastic and comfortable to wear. There is enough nap on the strap to absorb light, and the thickness tapers towards the tip to make it more comfortable to wear.
        Leather, metal and braid are all great, but what if you want something a little more personal? Casetify has a huge selection of Apple Watch bands and our current pick is the Cats band. It’s made from Saffiano vegan leather so it’s skin-friendly, and it’s completely biodegradable so you don’t have to worry about leaving the planet polluted with your cruelty-free lifestyle. The design looks great too, with a group of cute cats decorating the strip. Best paired with the matching colorful Apple Watch case, this might not be an option for those who prefer simplicity over bold, but it’s sure to be someone’s favorite here. Don’t like cats? See if they have one for you.
        In addition to the durable strap, Nomad offers a sports strap, which is a silicone strap with built-in lugs that reach the watch case, a durable stud closure and hole, and a Nike-like Apple watch strap. Nomad products are made from soft LSR silicone and are available in a two-tone color scheme: black and gray or black and green. It’s hypoallergenic and sweat-resistant, with air channels underneath to keep you cool. It is perfect for fitness enthusiasts and is a great strap. Suitable for 42/44mm watches only.
        Burkley’s Holo Strap is perfect for drop-top weekend trips to the coast – or at least when you fancy it. The classic cut of the strap gives it an aesthetic look, while soft lined leather makes it light and comfortable. We also love the little design touches, like the Burkley logo printed right on the strap loops. It is available in various colors.
        The Southern Straps features a textured nylon strap with each section stitched for a unique look. It seems to be very hard wearing and is double bonded and heat sealed to ensure it won’t fray in harsh environments. We love the khaki and red version, which offers different color options for the 38mm/42mm or 42mm/44mm Apple Watch connector. We were a bit disappointed with the strap loop, which sometimes caught on wearers with hair on their wrists.
        The Nyloon nylon strap seems to last a while and stand up to rough handling, which is exactly what you need for this popular style. We have worn the navy blue and red Napier design which we find comfortable and stylish. The shiny hardware is eye-catching, and the Apple Watch Adapter has spring bars so you can swap out the band for another 20mm or 22m version of your choice.
        This beautiful Apple Watch leather band is handcrafted from premium stingray leather. The Ullu Stingray bands are available in a variety of colors to perfectly match the large 42mm Apple Watch cases.
        Handcrafted from a vintage baseball glove, this bracelet is perfect for sports fans. This watch band is not only stylish but also durable. If you’re a football fan, Strap Smith can also make custom football bands. Please note that if you want to install the necessary hardware to attach the strap to your watch, you will have to pay an additional $25. Bonus: You can choose a color that matches your choice.
        Pad & Quill, known for their high-quality, beautiful Apple leather accessories, makes three different Apple Watch bands, but the Lowry leather cuff is one of our favorites. Made in black, chestnut or brown genuine leather, hand-stitched and nickel-plated buckle for a durable yet elegant look. Suede at the bottom of the strap provides a comfortable fit. one question? It only fits Apple Watch 42mm/44mm.
        If you’re looking for something a little different, check out the elegant button-down Form Function Form straps that don’t have buckles or clasps. Instead, it has a stainless steel stud that secures a long leather strap. You can order studs and adapters to match the color of your Apple Watch, including options like Veg Tan, Ultra-Thin Horse Front, Horween Chromexcel, and Latigo. Just be sure to check the length to make sure the overall fit is correct. The company even offers a free lifetime size if you buy it.
        Imagine if you want: you finally found the perfect Apple Watch band, ordered it, and here it is. Just a disaster! It’s too small for your wrist. How can this situation be avoided? Well, if you can’t go to a physical store and check out your Apple Watch band selection, the only way to know for sure is to measure your wrist. Luckily, we have a detailed guide on how to measure your wrist for Apple Watch and how to measure your wrist for the Solo Loop for Apple Watch.
        The last thing you want is for your Apple Watch band to cause any skin sensitivity you might have. While Apple Watch strap sensitivity issues are often related to allergies to sweat, friction, or nickel, there can be many other triggers that we can’t describe in detail here. However, there are some strap materials you can choose from that will hopefully reduce the chances of skin sensitivity triggers occurring.
        Leather is usually a good choice because it looks good, feels good, and is often suitable for people with sensitive skin. Because it is a natural material, it is unlikely to cause any problems, and while it may not be suitable for vegans, it is a good choice if you want a beautiful strap that will suit your skin. For the same reason, metal watch bands are another great option – just make sure you choose a stainless steel or titanium watch band to avoid those annoying nickel issues.
        Finally, there are layout options. For obvious reasons, resistance bands are a great option for people who sweat a lot. However, if the sporty look is not to your liking, consider other silicone straps, as some high quality silicone products don’t look like they were made for Olympians.
        Do what you want! There is no hard and fast rule as to how often you should replace your watch band, the only real limitation is how often you want to go through the replacement process. We have a relatively simple Apple Watch band replacement guide so you can actually replace your band every day. A more realistic option might be to use a more elegant strap for smarter occasions and a casual strap for everything else, but that’s entirely up to you.
