Does anyone find the braided watch bands more comfortable in the summer? Who's got one, and what's your preference?

Sport loop usually. Sport band when I swim. I like the look of the braided bands, but seem to remember mixed reviews when they came out.

Alpine loop. But only for the looks. It takes getting used to putting it on. I don’t even like to replace it because I may not be able to figure out how to attach it again.

Ordered this one last night. Thanks for the tip!

For all those wondering (lol) this is a very comfortable band!

I switch between a braided loop and the stainless steel link bracelet. I find myself favouring the SS link though.

I always end up going back to the trail loop on my ultra. most comfortable to wear, doesn't give me rashes and lets the skin bread underneath.

I really like the ocean band. It comfortable and because it's got a tread like pattern stays in place quite well. I have all of the Ultra bands as well as many of the regular ones and I always keep coming back to the Ocean band.

I love my Nike Pride band from a couple years ago. Looks great and it’s very comfy in the summer weather.
