GarminGarmin UltraFit Nylon Strap (26 mm) - Black

Not major, just kind of itchy and not as comfortable. These are much more comfortable, adjustable, are really good bands and dry off nicely. This is my 2nd one. I wear working out, then in spa and shower and they work well. I try to clean it off lightly and keep from getting soap and stuff on it and it seems to not get discolored at all. They look better, or are a bit more stealth than most velcro bands. The velcro is not thick, or it doesn't overlap much so looks good enough for me to wear to work. Anyway, better than I thought, but if you're in sales or for more formal occasions, it's very easy to take off and you can swap in your titanium or blingy band

I had the stock silicon band, but it was irritating my skin something fierce. Every time I sweat (running/ working out) the silicon band would slip and slide, and all that rubbing meant I was losing skin, getting dry skin in the area, it caused itching and pain.This Nylon band however, super easy to install, and instant relief from all that irritation. It sits snugly on the wrist without moving around, it doesn't rub or chafe or cause any irritation whatsoever.My only criticism is this should have been bundled FOR FREE with the base watch as an option, rather than forcing me to spend 40 extra dollars when the original silicon based product is known to cause so much irritation for so many customers.

This strap which I put onto a Tactix 7 AMOLED is incredibly comfortable, lightweight, and breathable. Absolutely worth the money and keeps the watch snuggly in place.

I’ve worn this watchband daily for the past few months, and it hasn’t caused any skin irritation (unlike the original silicone band, which made me itch). So far, there’s no sign of wear, and it’s both super comfortable and high quality. The Velcro is still very grippy, too - I've been worried about this before buying.

Much better than the generic straps out there. It has a higher quality but the price is also higher. These sort of bands are the only way to wear a Garmin in my opinion and this is probably the best option (even though it is the most expensive)

Replaced a cheap metal chain loop watchband after it broke, and I couldn't stand to use a plastic one.The nylon band fits rather nicely, doesn't chafe or itch, and makes the watch dramatically lighter. On hot summer days, I don't get the characteristic annoying ring of sweat under the watch, and if it gets wet, it dries rather quickly.Only real downsides are that getting the belt fed through the watch is a small exercise in patience, and loosening the band to remove the watch from your hand is a bit tricky at first, but I'm sure after a break-in period it wont be a problem

Comfortable and durable. Also easy to fit and adjust. Looks really good with the watch.

Velcro sticks and good breathable material. Bit expensive for what it is... so dinging to 3 vs 5 star for this only.
