Stretchy Loop Nylon Strap Compatible with Garmin forerunner 45/45S Bands Replacement Accessory Adjustable Elastic

This band solved a problem I had with the stock Forerunner band. When I wore the watch to bed, the end of the strap would snag on a sheet or pillowcase every time I turned over and it would wake me up. This stretchy replacement band has nothing that will snag, so it's much better than the original band if you plan to track your sleep. I wore this stretchy band 23/7 for a year and it held up well. It's finally losing its stretch, so I ordered another. Tip: squeeze the clasp when you put the watch on to prevent it from slipping.

More comfortable than the plastic band I have had it on several months and I like it. I do not wear it super tight because I don’t like feeling constrained in any way.

Very satisfied with this strap. I'm a runner and work outdoors alot. This is a great slim band for the garmin.

I purchased my daughter a Garmin Forerunner for her birthday, and she loved it! However, after wearing it for sports and fitness we started to notice a rash forming on her wrist. She has no allergies nor has ever had any skin issues in the past. We thought it might be an injury that was having a hard time healing as the watch may be irritating it. She stopped wearing it and it went away. She put it back on and there it was again. This made it impossible for her to use this great product. We came across this JOY Stretchy Strap and it has been a game changer! No rash, plus it is durable and looks great. Great quality, speedy delivery time, and installs without issue. Highly recommend. We will be buying all our bands here moving forward.

Much better than the original, it doesn't itch or drive me crazy. It does loosen up pretty quickly though and after less than a year I have to take it off and retighten it several times a day, which then loosens it more. Looking for a better alternative but still a big leg up on the original. Edit: Removing a star because after a year it's already crumbling/flaking and falling apart.

Works well. Fits as expected.

Broke after three months of fairly regular wear. The band also loosens itself often so you have to keep adjusting it. Not sure I'd even pay 5 bucks for this. Spend your money on a decent watch band, this one is cheap for a reason.

The first time I tried to put the watch on with this, the tiny piece of metal holding it to the watch popped off, but was easy to pop back on. I was concerned it would be a problem, but it only happened once. It does loosen up over time, so twice a day I end up having to re-tighten the band to make sure it fits as snugly as I'd like. It's good, but I'll probably end up getting a Garmin replacement.

The stitching on the strap is falling apart after three weeks of use. The part that holds the screws is not covered in silicone and made of cheap plastic that scratches your skin
