Summer is here and it is a difficult time for many watch strap fans. Wearing leather in the hot weather is just crazy and you will definitely drown your poor wrist in sweat not to mention the smell and even damage that you can do to your expensive ostrich leather watch strap. Just as you swap your clothes for the summer you need to swim your watch straps to something more suiting summer days.
The second thing is that we often spend more time next to water whether it is a poolside or the seaside it is worth finding something that won’t be damaged by the water.
This is why we come with help and to let you know about wonderful options for the summer. The biggest group worth looking at are waterproof sports bands but we have a few different options for you at the end of this article.
Summer hit – waterproof sport watch bands
Most of this category means rubber bands and it might sound counterintuitive as we often connect rubber bands with sweat, but this is, in fact, a misconception. Ruber stays cool and does not retain water saving your wrist from swimming in your sweat.
Another great characteristic of rubber sport watch band is that it is completely waterproof. Water does no damage to it with one caveat – long exposure to chlorine might cause discoloration so in that case, you should wear a watch and straps designed for swimming pool swimming or simply avoid chlorine water.
That’s why we feel that waterproof sport watch bands are the best option for your fun, fresh summer looks that will be practical and great looking at the same time.
