Last year Spigen debuted a couple new Apple Watch bands that have remained a part of my rotation. One of which was the Alpine Loop-style model you can grab down at $20 Prime shipped right now, and the other was the sort of Trail Loop-style model. The latter is known as the Athlex and Spigen has debuted a few new colors you can score at $21.99 Prime shipped right now.

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.

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.

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 the particularly notable Nomad Black Friday sale has come and gone now, we just spotted is Rugged Band for Apple Watch Ultra and 46mm Series models down at $39. This overstock sale knocks a solid 33% off the the list price to deliver one of the better deals we have tracked on all three color options.

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.

We have explored many of the best full grain leather-focused accessory brands out there, but a new independent purist straight out on the lone star state was recently picked on our radar – Bluebonnet. After getting our hands-on some of its iPhone 17 cases and Apple Watch bands, we think it should probably be on yours too.

Nomad has launched its long-awaited 2025 Black Friday sale. Outside of a few exclusions, it is now offering discounts sitewide across a giant selection of gear and we are highlighting the offers on some of our favorite Apple Watch bands this morning. Not only are its new sport-style Tempo bands marked down, but its more rugged Rocky Point model as well as a host of its gorgeous leather treatments are also sitting down at Black Friday pricing.

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.

Burton Goods – the maker of some of our absolute favorite leather Apple Watch bands – is debuting a next-generation of its Slim Logan Leather Cuff. Featuring what appears to be a slimmer and more tapered design than the previous iteration, it lands with the usual artisan touches we love from the brand alongside brushed hardware made to match Apple Watch and Apple Watch Ultra. You can also use our exclusive 9to520 code to knock 20% off the price tag.
