Apple Watch questions—answered.
How do I know what size Apple Watch band I need?
Finding the right size Apple Watch band is easy. Look at the back of your Apple Watch, where you’ll find the size engraved—either 38mm, 40mm, 41mm, 42mm, 44mm, 45mm, 46mm and 49mm. Once you know your Apple Watch size, browse our styles, where each style is designed to fit your specific Apple Watch size.
How do I choose my Apple Watch band?
Choosing the perfect Apple Watch band depends on your lifestyle and personal style. iSTRAP offers a wide variety of styles, from our durable Sport Band for fitness enthusiasts to our elegant Milanese Loop for a elevated, everyday look. Each band is designed for comfort and durability, fitting perfectly with your Apple Watch.
Do all Apple Watch straps fit each series?
Our Apple Watch bands come in specific sizes to ensure the perfect fit for your Apple Watch. Apple Watch comes in various sizes—38mm, 40mm, 41mm, 42mm, 44mm, 45mm, 46mm, and 49mm—and our straps are carefully tailored to match each one precisely. To ensure compatibility, simply check the size of your Apple Watch (engraved on the back) and select that size when shopping.
How often should I replace my Apple Watch band?
The lifespan of an Apple Watch band depends on how often you wear it and the type of material. Our Sport Band and Sport Loop are designed for frequent use, standing the test of time with heavy activity. Our leather and stainless steel styles (like Milanese Loop) can also last years with proper care. Either way, we always recommend frequent cleaning with a damp cloth and consider replacing your bands every year or so as they do accompany you everywhere you go (literally).
Is it okay to change my Apple Watch strap every day?
Yes, it’s perfectly fine—and encouraged!—to change your Apple Watch strap daily. We offer quick-release designs that make swapping bands simple, letting you match your strap to your outfit, activity, or mood. And, we have the range to add variety and style to your day.
Should I wash my Apple Watch band?
Yes, keeping your Apple Watch band clean is essential for hygiene and longevity. Durable styles like our Sport Band and Sport Loop can be cleaned with mild soap and water, while leather and stainless steel styles should only be wiped with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, and always dry your band thoroughly before connecting it to your Apple Watch. Proper care ensures your Apple Watch strap looks and feels great for years.
Can I swim with my Apple Watch?
Yes. Each model of Apple Watch is waterproof and fine to be submerged in water. As far as bands go, we recommend our Ocean Band for swimming and use within water. It is designed to handle water exposure and is safe and secure for swimming. Avoid submerging leather or stainless steel bands in water, as this can damage the material, but the odd splash is fine.
