Apple Watch lovers all over are ditching their current bands and replacing them with the lightweight, breathable & soft to touch Sport Bands by Nomad Goods
It's hard to argue that almost everyone these days wears an Apple Watch. I'll admit I used to be a bit of a purist when it came to having & wearing a mechanical watch.
Well… times… they are a changin' and I'm hooked on my Apple Watch.
But if there's one thing I think could use some improvement, it's their straps.
So let's dive in on why I think every Apple Watch owner should have at least one Nomad Sport Band

1) It doesn't absorb sweat and start to stink after a workout
With its built-in ventilation channels on the backside of the watch strap, it allows airflow between your wrist and the strap to prevent sweat from getting trapped.
This ventilation keeps your strap from getting that old mystery socks-in-your-gym-bag smell.
Workout Ready
The Sport Band is built around a minimalist design meant to keep the weight low and ventilation high. Channels in the bottom of the band and full length adjustment holes increase breathability and flexibility.
2) These straps are Easy-to-Clean and are Mold & Mildew-resistant
Nomad's Sport bands are made using FKM rubber, which is a material that is 100% waterproof non-porous and can be easily sanitized using soap and water. FKM rubber is a high-performance fluoroelastomer that is antimicrobial, flexible, and lightweight.
3) Straps fit like a glove
These straps are lighter weight than traditional Apple Watch straps and the natural flexibility of the FKM material allows it to easily contour around your wrist and stay in place during rigorous activity.
It's the perfect strap for everyday day use.
4) Nothing but style with a ton of classic color options
Watches are an accessory… a statement piece… and having a large selection of colors ranging from subtle military-inspired earth tones to vibrant neon colors allows you to customize your watch exactly how you want it.
What I Love About Nomad Watch Bands
- Aesthetic & Design Nomad's products feel on par with Apple. From Product to packaging to branding… everything is spot on.
- Functionality You can tell Nomad thinks through everything for every product they make. Those are meetings I wish I could listen in on.
- Build Quality The build quality and material selection are head and shoulders above anything else you might compare it to.
- Selection The team at Nomad pushes out products fast and the selection available leaves you wanting everything on their website
5) Over +600 Reviews from raving fans
Nomad is quickly developing a reputation as the go-to watch strap for all occasions and their commitment to sustainability & the environment is unmatched by other apple accessory providers.
I have had a lot of Apple Watch's over the years and used A LOT of different bands. The Sport Band — 45mm | Ultra Orange is hands down the BEST I've ever used! I plan on ordering one in black too!
Trusted & Approved
Nomad has a strong focus on sustainability and environmental impact. They work with suppliers using Recycled Materials, Reduce Carbon Footprint, and Reduce Waste from excess packaging.
So Is a Nomad Strap Right for You?
Well, I guess the easier question is? Do you own an Apple Watch? If yes… proceed here. I think you can tell that I love Nomad products. Their Sport Bands is a must-have for any Apple Watch owner.
- Easy to Clean
- Mould & Mildew Resistant Waterproof Materials
- Lightweight & Perfect Fit for Rigorous Activity
Right now I've got the Marine Blue strap but I've also got my eye on trying to grab one of their Limited Edition colors in the near future. Get that pop of color going!

As a long term supporter of NomadGoods (circa 2014) this Sport Band superseded all my expectations. For someone that replaces their gear only when things are broken, this Sport Band for my Apple Watch 3 series made me realise how much more comfortable and aesthetic this band is compared to the original one that it arrives with. I've taken this band EVERYWHERE. From work to free diving, running, and even sleeping when the days are just insanely tiring. The slenderness of the band is a lot more breathable and functional and easier to maintain. 11/10 would recommend this product :)

The slim design makes it easy to wear the apple watch in casual occasions. Built sturdy but soft enough to be comfortable.

My first Nomad Apple Watch Band for Apple Watch Series 7 graphite stainless steel. Perfect for everday use being so breathable as well as great looking. Got the bone colour for a fresh summer look. With the 10th anniversary sale I ended up ordering an additional Slim Sport Band in Black as well as two Sport Bands in Lunar Gray and Dune. Highly recommend you will not be disappointed at all.

The reMarkable 2 tablet has finally replaced my trusty paper notebook
E-readers are too slow. Tablets like the iPad are too expensive and have battery life measured in hours instead of days. A stylus on my phone is too slippery and too slick. Pencil and paper? That's the holy grail — and the reMarkable 2's combination of focused software and awesome hardware finally replaced it for me.
