Apple offers a slew of great bands for the Apple Watch, but many other companies do as well—often for much lower prices. We searched through hundreds of third-party Apple Watch bands and tried 45 for ourselves, with help from watch experts and our discerning staff. A watch band is a personal style choice, and there’s no single option that’s best for everybody. But if you want a different style than what Apple offers, we’ve found picks in a range of styles and prices that should suit most tastes.

Lei’ohu Designs Kou Apple Watch Band

Comfortable faux leather, best for smaller wrists
The Lei’ohu Designs Kou band is lightweight and soft on the inside. This band is more adjustable for different-size wrists, and we liked the floral pattern. It’s less likely to be confused for leather, though.
