Tested: Nomad’s hybrid Active Band Pro – the perfect combination of real leather and rubber for Apple Watch users

Nomad Active Band Pro Apple Watch-hero review

I love leather Apple Watch bands, it’s very much my thing, but I had been on the hunt for something that can provide that sort of timeless, elegant look that I can also wear for hours on end, in any condition, and during just about activity. Traditional leather bands can get a little bit cumbersome and uncomfortable for some folks after extended wearing periods, myself included and especially if its get’s hot or during workouts. So I just had put the waterproof hybrid leather and rubber Nomad Active Band Pro to the test to see if it actually was the solution I have been after.

Nomad offers big-time 30% clearance deals on its iPhone 15 cases: Leather, Sport, Folio, more from $21

30% off/From $21

Nomad is one of our favorite iPhone case makers – this should come as no surprise considering how much I just praised its gorgeous Traditional full-wrap leather iPhone 16 model (I’m using it right now). But for folks not upgrading to iPhone 16 anytime soon, it has now moved just about all of its wonderful leather and sport iPhone 15 cases over to clearance pricing with solid 30% price drops. While you will find some deals on its official Amazon store right now, selection is extremely limited. Deals on Nomad gear are hard to come by. It does happen from time-to-time, but it’s seldom at best. Starting today, you’ll find a giant collection of the iPhone 15 models at 30% off waiting over on this landing page (just above the iPhone 13 and 14 models) – we will highlight some of our favorites for you down below as well.
