Review: Big improvement over original silicone bands - Update - just had the first one wear out, after about 1.5 years. I call that very durable, considering I wore them day and night (took off only for showers and swimming) and did not hesitate to get them wet or dusty. Wearing out in this case means that first one, then two, then all of the little velcro stickers came off. So now I am on my second one, and still have another two-pack as a reserve. Still a solid 5/5 IMO. Did not have high expectations, but they were exceeded in every way anyway. These Nylon bands are much more comfortable than the silicone bands - basically you don't feel them as much. The are also never loose or too tight, which the silicone bands frequently were. These Nylon bands are slightly stretchy, so the watch is tighter to the skin (to measure heart rate etc) but at the same time does not strangle your wrist. Another point to mention is that when you sweat, the silicone bands are just terrible. When hiking in hot areas, it always started to get hot, slippery, and itchy. This Nylon material seems to just take up the moisture or ventilate very well, not sure. No issues when hiking. Not having any clasps or other things to keep lose ends in check, the band is very low key, and will snag less than other bands. Can't say much about looks - I just don't care that much, as long as it is functional. Wearing the dark green right now - doesn't really jive with the grey bezel of my Epic2, but like I said, could not care less. Following the images to install the band made it pretty simple. Once installed and the correct size dialed in, it is easy to take off and put on with exactly the same length as there is a bend where it wraps around the watch band retainer. I also like the fact that it can be washed, and I love the hook & loop fasteners which are both secure and easy to open. Really nothing to complain about, and the two-pack is refreshingly affordable too. I rarely give 5/5 but these deserve it (plus I ordered another pack just to have some spares). Not sure how long they will last - if they prematurely break or frazzle, I'll come back and update this review.
Review: Quite comfortable, and wonderfully adjustable - Updates: Band is still going strong after several months of daily wear. Noticed they've now added another color which tempts me. There was a question of the length so I've uploaded an image of the distance between the velcro portions. --------------------------------------------------------------------- After a long day of lift assisted DH riding my wrist was pretty beat up from my Fenix6 bouncing around a bit. With the default band I just couldn't quite get the fit right for such a rough activity (running was fine by contrast). After searching for a more adjustable strap like a NATO strap I came across this one. There weren't a ton of reviews and only the one color but I figured I'd try it. I have now worn the watch with this band nearly continuously for several weeks and am quite happy with it. Pros: You can have any color you want, as long as it's black. The ability to make minute adjustments is fantastic. I haven't had any reaction to sweat or funk like I've had with silicone bands. I can have it slightly tighter or looser as necessary. The plastic part you grab on the end tucks out of the way nicely. The profile helps the watch sit flat on my wrist. And perhaps most importantly, it helps prevent the watch from banging on my wrist bones like the OEM strap. Almost cons: The packaging is pretty weak, just a thin plastic bubble on some cardboard, but it gets discarded/recycled anyway, so, meh. Instructions for looping the band onto the original pins are honestly not great, but the video on the ad page is pretty clear and makes easy work of it. Little wood chips, splinters, and thistle sorts of things can get caught in the loose(ish) weave of the fabric while doing outdoor activities like trail runs, hiking, camping or things like woodworking, but I was able to remove all of them with a little effort. Concerns: Over time I wonder how well the hook/loop connection will hold up. Will things get furry and stop grabbing? How long will the elastic nature hold up before it's just a cloth strap? If all of the stretch goes out, will it really be a problem? In the end, for the 20ish dollars this was definitely worth the risk to me. It's my go-to for the fenix6 and I'm happy I don't need to use the original strap and beat my skinny little wrists up anymore. Hopefully it holds up and hopefully there will be some additional colors down the road.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this band fit the garmin 945 lte version?**
A: I have the 945 LTE version and it does fit. But (and I cannot speak to all 945 LTEs…only the one I received), mine came with a quick release band…no lugs. Without lugs, this strap will not work. I robbed the lugs off of my 945 (non-LTE) and it fits/works perfectly.

**Q: does the band fit the garmin 735xt?**
A: no, 22mm watch band doesn't fit for garmin 735xt

**Q: Do you have a 20 mm band for Fenix 6S?**
A: yes, we have the 20mm size

**Q: Can you swim when wearing this strap ? Will making the strap wet damage it over time ?**
A: I absolutely love this watch strap! YES! You can absolutely swim with it on and I have repeatedly. I shower with it as well. The watch comes off once a week for charging. Otherwise, it's on constantly and fits like a dream. I've not noticed any 'wear' or 'deterioration'.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Huge Comfort Upgrade for Garmin Fenix – No More Skin Irritation
*by M***S on April 29, 2026*

Bought this nylon strap for my Garmin Fenix about 2 months ago and it’s been a major upgrade over the OEM rubber/silicone band. Biggest difference is comfort. The stock strap would irritate my skin, especially with sweat and daily wear. Since switching to this, zero irritation—much more breathable and doesn’t trap heat. Fitment is solid and it attaches easily using the standard QuickFit setup. Took maybe 30 seconds to swap. It’s also more adjustable than the OEM band, so you can dial in a better fit (tighter for workouts, looser for all-day wear). Stays secure and doesn’t slide around. Durability has been great so far after daily use for a couple months—no fraying or loosening. Only tradeoff vs rubber is it takes a bit longer to dry if it gets wet, but that’s expected with nylon and hasn’t been an issue. Overall: if the stock Garmin strap irritates your skin or just feels stiff, this is a simple upgrade that makes the watch much more comfortable to wear all day.
