Spigen makes some of the better budget-friendly Apple Watch bands out there and this one happens to pull from the design of Apple’s official Alpine Loop. One of my personal favorite 2025 releases from the brand, this one gives you the all-black Alpine Loop look for a fraction of the price.

Available in five different colorways and two sizes, this new-release strap from Bandletic hit the scene earlier this month. It features a stretchy nylon construction and I particularly like the topography-inspired portion of this band.

Google’s official Gradient Stretch Band is one of the more unique fabric Pixel Watch bands out there. Compatible with all Pixel Watch models right up to the latest series 4, these bands reveal a series of sort of accent colors as they stretch around your wrist and are now up to 59% off.

Unlike a majority of Milanese Loop style bands, this unit steps up the strength of its clasp by adding two latches that magnetically lock in place. The style here is mostly black with hints of orange here and there.

Apple Watch bands with a magnetic design are now at, or near the top of my list when I am on the lookout for another. This model doesn’t disappoint, with a magnetic style that can be strapped on four different ways to shake up the look.

I’m a big fan of the sort of paneled texture detailing across the official Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 band. I’m not, however, a huge fan of the $55 price tag they fetch at retail and you’ll now find several different sizes and colors starting from $35 with as much as 37% in savings up for grabs.

This band is available in four colorways and two sizes, with the most affordable option being the larger black style. The brand touts that its latest magnetic dual-buckle design aims to deliver “unrivaled stability and convenience.”

There aren’t a ton of leather Pixel Watch bands out there, and even less with Google’s Moonstone color treatment. We have seen some deals on this model in the past but select sizes are now sitting at new Amazon lows, complete with Google’s “beautiful Italian leather and elegant stitching.”

While this is arguably not the flashiest Apple Watch band out there, I think that’s sort of the point. I personally like having a rugged and affordable band like this at the ready for when I’m going to tackle projects and the like. This way I won’t have to worry about damaging it.

Unlike a majority of Apple Watch bands out there, this offering boasts a double-sided design that allows you to flip the direction of each piece. This provides four different looks you can alternate between, and I love that the entire thing snaps on using magnets.

This band certainly stands out from the affordable offerings we generally come across. Instead of silicone or metal, it opts for suede to “deliver an exceptionally soft, skin-friendly feel”.

While not the biggest discount lately (that goes to the sporatic drops we saw over Black Friday week), today’s offer does knock a few bucks off this rugged nylon Apple Watch band. One notable feature here is the “FIDLOCK buckle [which] features a locking mechanism that can only be unlocked by sliding or rotating in a specific direction.”
A brand new Spigen Apple Watch Band Organizer just surfaced on its official Amazon storefront out of no where. Harkening back to something like Twelve South’s Time Porter, the new Spigen delivers what appears to be a more robust solution with a fabric-wrapped, wall-mounted approach that also feature an accessory shelf of sorts along the top.

Aulumu is an Apple gear accessory brand that should be on your radar if it isn’t already. It is the maker of a ton of chargers, iPhone cases, and even some unique industrial design-inspired add-on gear, but it is its Apple Watch bands I am most impressed by usually, and it has now unleashed a pair of new models.

Nomad is debuting one of its most exciting new products of the year today, if you ask me. The new Stratos hybrid Apple Watch band combines its wonderful titanium link-style bracelet with a rubberized interior for extra comfort and a sort of ready for anything design approach. After testing it out myself for a few days now, the new Nomad Stratos has become a clear contender for the best new Apple Watch band of the year already.
