Mediocre quality but still pretty good. Does not fit large wrists

Standard band. Elastic and strong. Unfortunately it holds on to smells. So don’t sweat in it too much.

Hard to keep closed together and doesn't stay at all.

Difficult to adjust- we ended up buying another and chucking this one...

I like the look of this band but found it to be uncomfortable.

Worked great with watch but I just sold the watch to get something different

Way too small for the buckle to be at the bottom. There is a small plastic piece that rubbed against my skin.

It’s technically off brand and it feels like it, very clunky and small especially for men.

Absolutely bad quality returned it. It was not fitting and it would make a weird knot on a side that I could not get rid off.

This is a very comfortable apple watch band. I love how it feels like I don't even have a band on and the green color. I have a 40mm watch and it fits perfectly. You can adjust it to fit your wrist so it's nice and comfy. I like the fact that that is does not feel like a rugged, hard braided nylon material. It actually feels very comfy on your wrist even though when you first feel it, it feels like it maybe a little hard on the wrist, but it is not. This green is exactly like the picture which I was happy about. Sometimes the color displayed is not the color that arrives, but this is not the case with this band. I feel like it is exactly like the green in the picture. I do feel if you have a larger wrist, this can still fit comfortably. I have plenty of room to loosen it up a bit, but it also stretches so even in a tight fit, it does not feel tight. The space for the watch to fit is also very roomy to fit a larger sized watch face and it does not look awkward with extra space even if you have the smaller 38mm. I recommend this to others.

The watchband doesn’t stay in place it keeps working itself out and gets very loose

Band pops out of watch constantly. Material is great, with useful cinching system

Didn't really like it. It was on clearance so I tried it. I have never worn it out.. I think I threw it away

Do not buy. Horrible fit and the dye come off on skin

This Insignia Braided nylon band is an affordable option for your Apple Watch to replace or supplement your original band. The nylon fabric itself is comfortable and breathable and was quite easy to install. The metal parts that attach to the band to install on the watch slide in and snap into place with ease. The band is easy to slide and adjust to give you a proper fit, definitely a plus over the silicone bands with holes. There are times with the other style of band I can’t get the band to be the right fit, this is just right each time I need to adjust it. I do a lot of lifting of dirty and heavy boxes at work so having a black band is great as it doesn’t show how dirty it actually is! The Insignia band is easy to clean and dries quickly so moisture doesn’t stay long against your skin. Overall the Insignia Braided Nylon band is comfortable, my only issue is the buckle and seam can be aggravating to my wrist on occasion if it gets in a weird spot. It’s not bad, I know I’m just at times overly sensitive to things on my skin. If you’re like me and want to swap out your Apple Watch band on occasion to suite your mood or your outfit, you might like to add this one to your collection, comfortable and affordable.

I use this band for my Apple Watch Series 9 but it can be used for an Apple watch size 38mm, 40mm, or 41mm. I’m quite happy with it. It’s comfortable, durable, stretchy, and easy to adjust. The braided nylon feels soft on the skin and doesn’t irritate or chafe. So far no fraying and the nylon pattern was perfect and looked. High quality straight out of the package. The clasp is secure and doesn’t come undone accidentally. The band also looks stylish and matches well with my watch. The two reasons I gave it four starts are 1. Even though the clasp is a visually nice 1-piece construction sewn clasp and comfortable, the clasp is not easy to adjust to my wrist size. It takes quite a bit of work to get it to the right size without overstretching. I have smaller wrists but not sure if I should have gone for a bigger size. There aren't many color choices but I think there are enough colors to please most potential buyers. The band is priced well in comparison to other nylon bands online. Overall, I would recommend this band to anyone looking for a quality nylon band for their Apple Watch. It’s comfortable, durable, and easy to adjust. It dries fast and gives your watch a nice look.

I was excited to check out this braided nylon band from Insignia. I am on the hunt for the perfect material band for my Apple watch so I wanted to try this one out. Most bands I try are either too loose or too tight and I'm a little picky on how the fabric of the band feels. The fabric of the braided nylon is great. It's comfortable on my wrist and lets my skin breathe. There is some stretch to the band which allows you to put it on very easily. It's a single piece with a metal clasp to adjust the watch band. The watch can be easily adjusted to fit your wrist. Installing the band was as easy as installing a watch band from Apple. It went on super quick and stays properly attached. The only con I found with the watch band was that the clasp slips. It's only minimal however with it happening only a few days after wearing it, I'm concerned that the slipping may increase and that it won't take long before I am frequently having to adjust the band. Overall, I like the band. I love the fabric but have some concerns that adjusting the band will become a nuisance. At this price point, I don't expect a perfect fit though so I do think it's a nice band.

The Insignia Braided Nylon Apple watch band is more difficult to review than I thought it would be because the are many great things about the band but the one not-so-great thing really counters the good. On the positive side, the Insignia Braided Nylon band looks premium, it is definitely Apple-watch worth and looks great. The connectors to your Apple Watch click in out as smooth as official bands and even the clasp in the brushed metal "clasp" or "buckle" (more on this later) looks awesome. The braided nylon doesn't feel cheap and has a satisfying stretch/springiness to it and the stone color is elegant. The nagging issue though for me is that adjusting it is a little frustrating. The "clasp" or "buckle" is not a clasp, it's one of those slide adjusters where you adjust the tension by sliding the strap in/out. The bit that's frustrating is you need to remove the band from at least one of the Apple Watch connectors to do this. This would be OK if it's only a one time thing, but your wrist can expand and contract during the day and I found the band would sometimes be a little too tight and need a micro-adjustment during the day, which means disconnecting it from my watch, micro-adjusting, reattaching, etc. At first I thought it was just me as I don't like super tight bands, so my partner wore it for a few days and even they came to the same conclusion. I kind of wish it was a true clasp/buckle not a slide adjustment and it would be perfect. This makes the band fall short of being a 4/5 and more a 3/5 for me - but if you like a tight band, this might be perfect for you. I'd still recommend the Insignia Nylon braided band to a friend if they like tight bands and understand that it's not a standard clasp/buckle as the quality is great and I'd definitely buy any other Insignia Apple Watch band as the value is unbeatable.

I really love the stretch style bands for my watches. I have the 41mm Apple Watch and the color of the metal band connectors was spot on with my Starlight colored watch. The nylon was very comfortable and stretchy and I liked how it was easily adjustable as well. I have used the magnetic, metal watch bands mostly and the silicone bands of course but never a nylon band. I really liked the fact that my arm never felt sweaty or sticky from a whole days wear. I will say in my profession, I constantly wash my hands throughout the day and found the band getting wet on occasions which was slightly annoying but after all, it’s fabric and was to be expected. Lol I just slid my watch a little higher up the wrist before washing them and problem solved. Now for the one con about the band…the little loop that allows for the band to tighten down or loosen up. It definitely isn’t comfortable if, depending where you end up after adjustment, it sits on the side of your wrist. I only noticed this when I was typing on my keyboard. Is it a deal breaker for me? No, definitely not. I think for the price point, it’s a band I’d buy again for the fact that it was mostly comfortable throughout the day and was simple yet stylish. I really like the looped look.

I've spent way too much money trying different band options out for my apple watch. I've bought several different materials and style options trying to find one that was cute and comfortable. Usually the bands are one or the other. I never liked the band the watch came with and hated how it trapped moisture when washing my hands a million times a day. I've got sensitive skin and quickly realized that material was not going to work on the long run. I tried the jewelry options made of metal as well as some stretchy type bands including the scrunchie style and none were great. This finally is cute and comfortable and doesn't leave marks on my wrist when I wear it all day. It's breathable enough to be comfortable while the braided band gives it a nice touch style wise. This color looks good with any metal option and now I don't have to worry so much about color options if I want to get a hard case for the display. This looks great with whatever you are wearing thanks to the neutral color. The clasp feels well made and I see this being my go to band for a long time. Highly recommend.
