Wear Your Apple Watch With Style With WRBLS Bands
A new Kickstarter campaign by WRBLS International wants to offer you bands that look and feel like they came from Apple, but with a little extra pizzaz.
WRBLS’ bands, which look nearly identical to the Apple Watch Sport bands, are made of a “high-performance silicone polymer” but have a variety of interesting and creative patterns that allow your Apple Watch to stick out from the crowd.
The bands are offered in three different collections: Sport, Urban Stylers, and Business Casual. Each band is available in both 38mm and 42mm and start at $34 dollars, about $16 less than Apple’s.
From the looks of it, they appear to look just like Apple, and we’re betting these folks are using some of the guys over in China to make these. We’ve reviewed third-party Sport bands in the past and have found them to be pretty darn good. In fact, I’ve been waring my Midnight Blue knockoff for several months and I have absolutely zero complaints.
This is exactly the sort of thing we hoped would become more popular sooner. So far, it doesn’t seem like too many folks have jumped on the band bandwagon despite Apple allowing third-parties to create bands through Apple’s Made for Apple Watch program.
The company says that the bands will ship sometimes in April 2016, just a few months away. If you’re interested in something unique, these bands look pretty sweet. Check out the Kickstarter campaign here.
