Waterproof vs. Water Resistant: Best bands for Swimmers

Waterproof vs. Water Resistant: Best bands for Swimmers

"Waterproof" and "Water Resistant" are not the same thing, especially when it comes to longevity. While a leather band might survive a splash, a swim will ruin it.

 

The Best Material: Silicone: Silicone is denser, more durable, and resistant to the corrosive effects of saltwater and pool chemicals compared to other materials, and is the go-to material for swimming with your Apple Watch.

 

Design for Water: Ocean Band has ventilation in its tubular design. This allow water to flow through the band rather than getting trapped against the skin, which reduces drag while swimming.

 

Security: When you dive into a pool or wipe out on a surfboard, the water hits your wrist with immense force. If this is how you're wearing your Apple Watch in the water - wear our Ocean Band. It is designed for outdoor adventures and water with its double-buckle ensuring a secure fit, always.
