    It is not worth the $50 price tag and the material feels cheap. I returned it and would not recommend it.

    Functional watch band, but be careful of the material. I got a bad rash after wearing it for several weeks. When I contacted Nomad they said "their leather is untreated" and refused to offer any assistance/support because I purchased it at Best Buy. It was used by that point, so I couldn't return it. Not great customer service, and not a great product.

      Hi there,
      I'm sorry to hear about your experience with our Leather Strap! It is rare, but I do hear of customers having a reaction to our leather straps every so often. The leather that we use is produced and vegetable tanned at Horween in Chicago. We use the Essex tannage, and more info on that can be found here: https://www.horween.com/articles. The Essex tannage is unique for its high oil content, which could possibly be the source of irritation for you. I do apologize for your first customer service experience with us. We are happy to work with Best Buy customers and issue replacements for Best Buy purchases that are under warranty. I would like to make this right and reach a resolution with you. Please send me an email at [email protected].
      Thank you,
      Chloe nomadgoods

    This was really nice at first but it’s peeling pretty bad now and it wasn’t worn everyday

      Hi there, I'm sorry to hear that the leather on your Nomad strap is peeling! Definitely not supposed to happen, so it sounds like you may have received a defective unit. Please contact our support team directly at [email protected] and we can help you with a replacement under the product's warranty. Thanks! -Chloe nomadgoods

    I'm not a fan of this band. Yes, its decent leather quality but it is always grabbing the hair on your arm. One of the reasons I use a leather strap is to avoid the pinching of hair so I don't know how this thing does it, but you'll be pulling your hair out of the strap every day!

    This watch band feels good to wear, but it's one of my least favorites in terms of appearance. The biggest problem is the chunky black attachment point. Genuine Apple bands have much more seamless connections that do not impact the look of the watch face itself so much.

    I am two days into wearing this band and one of the two loops that hold the excess band in place has already started to come apart. I am not certain how long it will last. I like the look and feel of the band, but the stitching seems to be lacking.

    Wish I'd taken a picture or video. I like the overall look but within a few days it already started sliding loose from the watch. I thought maybe I'd not "clicked" it in correctly but it simply doesn't stay attached to the watch. I paired it with the new Ultra also. I did like the looks but not the quality/security of the band. I put the original one back on with no issues. I'll be looking for another leather strap pretty soon.

    Didn’t want the white band that came with my watch so I got this band. It’s perfectly fine for everyday use but I work in construction and it made me sweat and became uncomfortable. I change to a metal flex band and like it better.

    Its a solid piece of leather wrapped inside of a much thinner piece of leather. The thin piece is then glued around the thicker piece. For $50 you are no doubt wasting your money. The one I got had come apart inside the box. It quickly went back.

    This band broke within one week after getting it slightly wet while washing my hands. Looks nice but what a cheap piece of junk.

    For the price, I was expecting better quality than a band from Amazon, but not expecting Apple's own quality. I was very disappointed! The leather is extremely stiff and not pliable at all and the buckle is oversized and looks funny when worn.

    I purchased this item to go with my new Apple Watch to have a nice watch band to wear with slacks and dress shirts. It held up okay for about two weeks but now it shows wear and looks like I have had it for several years.

    Bought this band because it really looked good in the store. It still looks good... but - it feels cheap. With better leather , this band would be a winner.
