    It tends to get loose. Other than that it's fine.

    Band creates & holds moisture against skin. Just tried it, but realized it will not work long term. Didn’t like the appearance or fit

    love the green color

    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.

    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.

    Good affordable band option

    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.
