Abanen Hook and Loop Quick Dry Watch Band for Fenix 8 47mm/ epix Pro 47mm / Fenix 7/6/5, 22mm Woven Nylon Ultralight Sport Wristband Strap for Garmin Instinct 2, Instinct 3 45mm

Excellent watch band - Durable - Comfortable - Perfect width - East to install without having to remove the watch pins - Velcro holds great - The band is actually a little stretchy, so it fits perfectly.

This actually is very comfortable, very light, easy to install and very easy to take off and put on your wrist.

I bought this to replace the band on my Fenix 6 that was tearing. Like many well-designed products, you know it's good when you barely notice it exists. I've been wearing it for two weeks, and it's been great. - Easy installation - Easy to take watch on / off - More comfortable than the original band. You don't even notice you're wearing a watch - Great price. Even if it rips, I could buy 15 of these for less than a Garmin replacement - Seems to dry quickly, although I haven't tested it too thoroughly

I've tried Garmin bands (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B087L8PLXS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), Ancol (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B072FRLWN3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1), Cuzow (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B4SKCCLV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1) several from Abnen (https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B09XQPRR6M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B09C8K2NGG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B092Q6KJ5D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1) While the Garmin is the best silicone band due to its flexibility but this is pretty good too. This band doesn’t have a quick release which if you don’t change it is not a problem. If like me you change it then it is kinda annoying. That said it is very comfortable and the lightest band I tried. The Ponatteno (https://www.amazon.com/PONATTENO-QuickFit-Wristband-Sapphire-Forerunner/dp/B083BT1CB4?pd_rd_w=iiP9W&content-id=amzn1.sym.deffa092-2e99-4e9f-b814-0d71c40b24af&pf_rd_p=deffa092-2e99-4e9f-b814-0d71c40b24af&pf_rd_r=RPHNEC3D3C1GVPSWVEX4&pd_rd_wg=2U3bQ&pd_rd_r=58b3cbe9-a3a5-4145-bedc-ec69832ac478&pd_rd_i=B083BT1CB4&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_d_grid_rp_0_1_t) is easily my favorite It is lightweigh, the clasps are easy to attach and remove and it stays attached and the nylon & hook & loop construction makes it infinitely adjustable. The only downside with any nylon bands is that after a workout it says wet for a while. I use two bands and swap them so I always have a dry one.

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.

These are excellent; comfortable, don't loosen or slip, infinitely adjustable, easy to install.

Compré estás bandas porque las originales de silicón me sacaron ronchas. La instalación fue sencilla y hasta el momento me ha funcionado bien, espero que con el uso el velcro aguante. Son ligeras, cómodas y se secan rápido. Las uso en un instinct solar tactical versión 1. Edit tras año y medio de uso diario: el velcro ha aguantado sin problemas, no se han deformado ni nada. 100% recomendadas.

انصح به سهل و مريح و لا يضغط على المعصم

Much better to use than stock ones. Different to my previous flexible band from other brand, so had a brainfart during install. Your wrist and sanity will thank you for not using the stock band.

I've been through a number of alternative options and I firmly believe that this strap has the most intelligent and secure fastening mechanism. The fastening on competitor straps utilises plastic end caps and spring-loaded pins so secure them to the watch itself. However, this product seem to be the only offering to allow me to re-use the original garmin lug pins which means that I can quickly change between this strap and other quick-fit straps in just a few seconds. Not to mention that the Garmin lug pins are significantly more durable than those usually included with alternative watch straps. The material is also very comfortable and the velcro seems like it will hold the watch in position well. Just ordered a couple more since I think that this is the best solution for a nylon sports strap which is compatible with Garmin watches.

Super comfortable and simple to attach. Durability has also exceeded my expectations. Fits nicely on my Epix pro gen 2, 47mm
