Apple makes it sound like they have dozens of bands on their website but in reality, there’s only three sporty ones. The Sport Band, Nike Sport Band and Sport Loop. I’ve done dozens of workouts with every one of these loops in order to bring you this review!
What's the difference between a $300 dollar band and a $20 dollar knockoff? • Worth the $240 dollar ...
When it comes to working out, my goto is to perform constantly varied functional movements at high intensity. Which makes it pretty hard to keep my Apple Watch on all the time. Because grinding my Apple Watch against a concrete floor is probably going to happen one of these days. My arms go through a range of different movements everyday so having the right strap on my wrist computer is pretty important.
Alright, so which Watch strap is best?
*Sport Band*
This is your basic band. This is the band that showed me that it was possible to use my laptop AND wear a watch at the same time. When it comes to working out, this is my least favourite band. Why? Because sweat tends to accumulate in the middle of the band. I’ll call this the “sweaty band feel”. I also found myself having to take the watch off completely after a workout to wipe off the back.
*Nike Sport Band*
So the Nike Sport Band is basically a regular Sport Band with a bunch of holes in it. This band allows for a bit more color than the regular sport band and addresses my biggest issue with the Sport Band which is the “sweaty band feel”. The holes in the band offer a bit more air to reach your skin you can focus more on your workout rather than the thinking about your sweaty wrist.
The Nike Sport Band is going to be your goto band if you’re a swimmer or a really sweaty gym person.
*Sport Loop*
This is my favourite Apple Watch strap to workout with.
This was one of the newer bands that was introduced with the Series 3 Apple Watch and it’s my favourite to workout with. It’s even quicker to adjust than the Sport Band and doesn’t suffer from “sweaty band feel” because the strap never really sits 100% on your skin. There velcro pieces allow for a bit of airflow between the band and your skin which is nice. I was initially concerned about the fabric watch band smelling after a while but it’s held up quite well given that I haven’t gone out of my way to clean it.
As a downside, this watch strap is made from fabric so it will absorb water. I’m not a very sweaty person when I work out and I don’t swim so my Apple Watch is never really submerged or really wet. It does take time to dry out so if you are sweaty and or swim a lot, don’t use the Sport Loop, go with the Nike Sport Band.
*Working out with the Milanese Loop and Nylon loop*
So how about the Milanese and Nylon loops? Personally, I wouldn’t recommend working out with either of them but if I had to choose, I would go with the Milanese loop because it operates similar to the Sport Loop. You can easily adjust the the size of the loop to fit your liking. The Milanese loop is the only loop-based strap that I’d use in a swimming pool as well. It will dry off much easier than the cloth based sport loop. None of this matters if you think spending ~$200 dollars on a watch strap is stupid.
Now I’m showing you too different looking loops in this video, one is a knockoff of the expensive Apple one. if you want to know more about the differences, check out that video.
The one strap that I wouldn’t workout with at all will be the Nylon strap. This is just a normal watch strap that sits either too loose or tight on my hand, isn’t as easy to adjust on the fly and gets pretty sweaty during a workout. Having it bounce around on my hand during a workout is extremely distracting.
