Fenix 5S /Fenix 5S Plus Watch Band,YOOSIDE 20mm Quick Fit Woven Nylon Canvas Watch Band Strap for Garmin Fenix 5S /Fenix 5S Plus,Red

The silicone band that came with my watch was irritating my wrist. My boyfriend suggested I try a nylon band. I was hesitant to order these at first because of all the negative reviews but I decided to take the risk and bought two, one in lavender and one in burgundy. I'm glad I did because these bands, though maybe not the highest quality, are really great for the price you pay. They are ridiculously easy to install and really comfortable. They are softer than I expected. I have to say I much prefer the burgundy band to go with my white and rose gold watch. The rose gold hardware of the watch band matches perfectly and it looks like they were meant to go together. Also the buckle on the burgundy band feels sturdier. I'm not sure why this is as they are pretty much identical in every other way. Bottom Iine I definitely reccomend these to anyone who has issues with silicone bands.

My wrist is 5.5 inches and I couldn't get the band tight enough on my own to keep the heart rate sensor to stay in contact with my wrist. This looseness was especially frustrating at night because it resulted in inaccurate sleep data because the watch was flopping around on my wrist.

You get what you pay for.Metal parts that latch/snap onto the watch head seem poorly designed. They look unfinished and when put against the black watch head look out of place. The latches don't feel secure when in place which made me worry that they may come undone during normal wear. Band and is too stiff and feel uncomfortable around the wrist, and the first loop, which is "glued" in place, is too close to the buckle which makes it very difficult to loop the band through.

I purchased this because the stock watch band that came with my Fenix 6s was irritating my wrist. It was fully compatible w/ the 6s, and it was definitely more comfortable for me.Unfortationaly, it began to fray rather quickly (with the bonded layers coming apart, and threads fraying... the damage was quite obvious, since it revealed the white interior threads that clashed with the black color).Worse, after about 4 months of daily wear, the notch for my preferred sizing tore-through, meaning that I can't get a proper fit anymore. I will have to try again... hopefully the next one will last longer.

I give it an overall rating of 3 stars only because it was too big for my wrist, despite indicating otherwise. My wrist is 5.5 inches. I gave it to my sister who wears it all the time. It is very light weight, seems durable and when I tried it on, it felt very comfortable (minus the watch face swinging around my wrist haha). It looks great on her arm and with her Garmin.

I have been using silicon bands which do not breath as well. This band lets my skin breathe, looks nice and is comfortable. I wear it for everyday use and switch to silicon bands for doing my sports like swim, run or bike.This band is also easy to clip in & out of my watch face.

I like the gold hardware on the ends of the bane makes it look high quality, the color is not as uniform as the picture shows. It is attractive but I had to return, it did not fit my Garmin vivomove watch.

The only downside to this band is the cheap "rose gold" metal. Also, the notches seem to be a little off... with the regular Garmin band the watch came with, I don't have any gap and it also isn't too tight... it fits me just right. But with this one, one notch is too loose and another is cutting off my circulation.

It’s a flimsy band attached to Garmin connectors with weak separate pins. You basically lost the security of the thick Garmin pins thanks to them adapting a generic fabric 18mm strap to a universal 20mm Garmin quick fit clip. I would avoid. It’s a disappointment.

not comfortable

It didn’t take long for the strap to fall apart. It traps in dirt and will need to replace it if you do anything to sweat
