Spigen launches sporty new Apple Magnetic Link-style band from $22

Spigen unleashed some impressive for the price Athlex Air Apple Watch Bands over the last couple years. The first model, one I still use to this day, delivers a hook and loop closure with a velcro clasp alongside a woven fabric strap construction. But it has just released a second version of the Athlex Air band with a magnetic treatment and a new band design starting from just $22

The new Spigen Athlex Air Apple Watch Band lands with a two-tone design – a sort of inner and outer strap approach in two different colors. Inside of that, you’ll find an inner adjustable strap, much like the first edition models – I really like this system as you can easily get the band as snug as you want with one hand. 

Easily slide the inner strap to adjust the band length for a personalized, secure fit tailored to your wrist.

This time the design is reminiscent of the old Apple Magnetic Link models:

Instead of the velcro, this time it is using a “powerful built-in magnet” that “securely locks the band in place through all-day activity without loosening, eliminating the hassle of clasps or buckles.” 

Spigen Apple Watch bands certainly aren’t the most high-end options out there, but I have come away rather impressed with some of its latest releases and am looking forward to giving this one a try. 

It is now available on Amazon starting from $21.99 Prime shipped in the Active Black Gray color or the Active Black orange vibe. 

  • BOLD TWO-TONE DESIGN — A striking two-tone accent delivers a rugged, athletic look, with multiple colorways to match your style.
  • STRONG MAGNETIC CLOSURE — A powerful built-in magnet securely locks the band in place through all-day activity without loosening, eliminating the hassle of clasps or buckles.
  • FITS WRISTS 5.9″–9.4″ (150–240 mm) — A flush, low-profile fit designed for most wrist sizes, delivering a clean and comfortable feel all day long.
  • ADJUSTABLE INNER STRAP — Easily slide the inner strap to adjust the band length for a personalized, secure fit tailored to your wrist.
  • INNER BAND KEEPS YOUR WATCH SECURE — A built-in inner band provides an extra layer of retention, helping keep your device firmly and securely on your wrist.
