Braided loop watch ban alternatives

[ger19]

Has anyone found a good alternative (knock off) to the Apple braided loop watch band? I got one when Woot had them on sale and really like it. I’d like to get another one but $99 for the Apple band is just too much.

Is that the one that uses light magnets to hold the band onto your wrist ?

No. It’s a loop that just stretches over your hand and holds to your wrist a bit snuggly. Unfortunately, it stretches out over time. Still, it’s the most comfortable band if ever owned.

Urvoi brand was good quality with metal connectors - but was more stretchy than OEM

I found this company out of Australia but the band and the shipping come to $81 so not really worth it to not just buy the Apple branded band. Still, they have a few colors I'm interested in.

Just want to let you know that the woot sale is back. But very limited size choice though.

Thanks. They didn’t have my size even if I was willing to try a different color than I want.
