    Great Fit and Function for Apple Watches

    The Insignia Active Nylon Band for Apple Watches (all series uncluding Ultra 1-2) is a great option for anyone looking for a comfortable, well-constructed and easily adjustable band for any of the latest Apple Watches. The nylon material is smooth to the touch and I barely notice it on my wrist. I've worn it all day, everyday for the last week or so and it's always up to the challenge. Activities included swimming, mountain biking and just wearing around the home and office. The Olive Green color does not show any stains of signs of wear after all these activites. The construction is what I've grown to expect from Insigna, they do an amazing job with materials and finish work. The lugs fit perfectly with my Ultra and the finish details on the band, velcro and loop are smooth and comfortable. I've owned other Insignia nylon loop bands and am always amazed at how long the material holds up against the velcro fitment pieces. After a year with my original band, there is some wear showing, but that is certainly within my expectations for a band at this very reasonable price point. Lastly, the endless points of adjustment are what I really appreciate. Other bands are limited by the spacing between holes, but with the velcro adjustment on this band, getting it perfect every time is a piece of cake. I like my band to be snug, but not too tight and this band allows me to get it right where I want it everytime. Pros: - Smooth comfortable nylon build - Very well made and top-notch finishing details - Endless adjustability - Lugs fit perfectly into Ultra - Love the Olive Green color Cons: - I wish the cap at the end of the band didn't fit through the attachment loop The Insignia Active Nylon Band for Apple Watch is an option that anyone should consider when looking for alternative bands for their Apple Watch. This band is comfortable, easy to adjust sizing and is well made. I would certainly recommend it.

    Great Band Option for your Watch

    I’ve had Apple Watches since series 2 and I’ve always leaned towards the comfort and functional bands versus the fashion ones This band serves as both, and the olive green color is true to the photos. It was easy to switch out my other band and slide this one it. The Velcro is strong enough to get me through gym workouts. I was a bit concerned that the quality would lack and I use my watch through tough gym sessions from the bench, to the sauna, to the shower and it was great. It dries fast and was comfortable before and after the gym. The nylon is soft and not itchy like other bands I’ve had so I am loving that. I hope they make new colors in the future. I don’t have small wrists nor are my wrists really wide. So it’s made for just about anyone. Overall a great band to add to your rotation or a gift for someone with this Apple Watch that was most recently released. Lastly, I just washed it with hand soap to sanitize it after a week of wearing it and the color is still great and clasp is intact.

    Infinitely Adjustable Watch Band for Apple Watch

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This Insignia Active Nylon Band fits Apple Watch 42mm, 44mm, 45mm, SE, Ultra 49mm and Ultra 2 49mm. I am using it on my Apple Watch Ultra 2 49mm. The color is a very pleasant olive green. It is a color that blends well with virtually any attire, whether formal or casual. My favorite feature is that it is infinitely adjustable on your arm from 5.1 inches to 8.3 inches, because of the velcro fastening system. This keeps the watch always facing you; even the heavy Ultra 2 does not rotate on your wrist when bumped, as so many inferior watch bands do. This assures comfort and consistency because the watch stays put on your arm. Fitment to the Ultra 2 watch is perfect. The watch band has a quality appearance as though it shipped with the Apple Watch. This watch band is feather light. It measures 0.866 inches wide. It is fully water resistant; shower with it with no worries. Installing this watch band could not be easier. Simply press the flush buttons on the back of Apple Watch to remove the existing band on both ends. Then slide the watch band brackets on both ends into the grooves on your Apple Watch! CONCLUSION: The Insignia Active Nylon Band for Apple Watch exceeds my expectations; it looks & feels great & I highly recommend it!

    Fantastic watch band!

    I wasn’t sure if I would like this type of watch band or not. I own two watch bands. The stock black Apple sport band and a nice leather band. I’ve never owned or even tried on a nylon band. But I was surprisingly impressed by the fit and comfort of this band. The quality: The band feels very well made. The pieces that connect to your watch are a hard strong durable plastic material. I typically wouldn’t want plastic but this feels very heavy duty. The nylon loops feel well crafted and they appear to hold up well. The fit: I love the fit. It’s 100% adjustable to any size you wish. This makes it very easy to find the perfect fit. I have not had any issues with the Velcro clasp coming loose or the band loosening or sliding after finding the right fit for my wrist. The feel: The band feels fantastic on the wrist. Once you find the fit, it feels virtually invisible. It’s much more comfortable than my other two bands and I prefer this band over them. It’s very comfortable to wear all day long. I have not tested the band getting wet yet. A couple things to note: -I initially put this band on my watch backwards and the clasp where you loop that band through sat kind of awkward on my wrist. I switched it around and it sat perfect. -I’m a bit nervous to get this band wet or sweat with it. I’m not sure if it would hold odor since it is a type of cloth material or mildew if it’s not dried properly. I typically take it off if I do the dishes or know I’m going to sweat. Or I’ll switch bands. Overall I really love this band and I plan on purchasing more of these in different colors. I highly recommend if you are looking for comfort.

    Great for active lifestyle, keeps watch in place

    The Insignia Active Nylon Band is a good upgrade for those who are active and prefer something a bit different than the Apple band that comes with the watch. In the box is the watch band. To install, press the button on each side of the bottom of the watch, slide off the old band, and slide the new band on until it locks into place. To wear, the band has three Velcro lines that fold over the connector and latch onto the band fabric to hold securely in place. The overall fit is great on the wrist, however the reason for 4 stars is that it doesn't fit over my husband's hand without having to completely take the strap out of the connecting piece, versus being able to slide over his wrist and tighten. Attached photo for exact size specifications, there is approximately 1.5" on the connector side and 7.5" on the Velcro side, plus the size of your watch body. Overall the fit is snug and secure and keeps the watch face in place no matter how active I am. It's relatively quick to dry, and the band keeps the watch securely in place without being too snug. I really like the fit and feel of the nylon, I just wish it had been a bit longer so my husband could wear it and wouldn't have to take it apart each time he put the watch on.

    Super comfortable and lightweight—I forget I even have it on most days. The olive green color is clean and lowkey but still stylish enough to match with pretty much anything I wear. I love how easy it is to adjust with the Velcro, and it stays in place all day, whether I’m working, at the gym, or running errands. Plus, it feels durable but still breathable—great for everyday wear. This is hands down my new go-to band. Simple, reliable, and just works

    Nice Strap, for a While

    Great band for the price. Feels comfy and you can adjust it near infinitely. No troubles fitting onto the watch. The only problems you might have is with the longevity. I’ve owned two of these. Each eventually failed for a slightly different reason. On one, one of the velcro straps peeled off. I tried to glue is back on with different adhesives but it goes through so much stress when being pulled off that it just wouldn’t take. The current one is still in good shape, but it’s starting to permanently stretch, and I’ve only got a centimeter of stretching left before the velcro end overlaps with the watch. If you’re okay replacing these once in a while, it’s a good band. You’ll have to wash them once in a while, since they are fabric. Try not to stretch them while you’re doing so, that just makes the elasticity worse.

    Good for the price. The end tab on the band can slip back through the loop at other end of the band a bit too easily, making it more challenging to take on and off without having to re-assemble that feature. Otherwise good. Comfortable.

    I had gotten this band before a while back. I reviewed that there was no finished edge so the band frayed. Eventually my dog chewed it up. Anyways I bought another one, and the end had a sewn finish! I don’t know if they listened to me or not, but I’m happy because with that one fix it’s a pretty awesome band especially for the price.

    Fits and feels almost as comfortable as the original Apple version of the sport loop but at a much more affordable price. I can see where some of the quality differences (overall thickness, pliability, feel of the fuzzy texture, and Velcro area) will be reflected in the price difference. But if you don’t have $50+ for a band and don’t mind a very slightly lower quality overall band then this is perfect. The construction is just a tad less comfortable in weight, softness of the fuzzy texture, overall non-continuous loop design etc. and mostly importantly the velcro area like will not last as long as the original Apple loop band but again for less than half the price you may not care ;)

    I’ve had this band for a little over a week and I haven’t switched it out to another one yet. I have a large collection of bands and this one is my new favorite. At first I thought it looked a little narrow compared to some of my other bands but I am used to it now. It just looks a little small compared to the Apple Ultra straps. It is soft and durable so far. The Velcro seems very sturdy and it is easy to adjust. My only negative is that the band connection is plastic and not metal, but time will tell how durable it is.
