Smartwatch straps

Changing your strap gives your watch comfort back or gives it a new look depending on the season and activity.

Before choosing, check the width of your watch's lug in millimetres, then filter by colour and material. Think of a colour that matches your outfits.

Find the strap for your watch

The attachment width is the number one criterion: 14, 18, 20, 22, or 26 mm depending on the model. The filter on this page shows these widths. A strap that's too wide won't fit, and one that's too narrow floats.

Attachment systems to know

The Quickfit system can be changed without tools, with a simple gesture. Traditional attachments require a small pin. Check your watch's manual to see which system it uses.

Strap brands

This page is largely occupied by Garmin, with straps for Forerunner watches in particular. The Brand filter also offers Polar for watches from this brand.

Good deals on straps

A replacement strap costs little: special offers and clearance equipment help you get a second one for messy outings.

Silicone, nylon, or leather

Silicone withstands sweat and water, making it the natural choice for running. Nylon is breathable and machine washable. Leather is more stylish but doesn't like repeated moisture. For sports, it's better to stick with a silicone or nylon strap.

Narrow or wide wrist

The length of the strap matters as much as the width. Check your wrist size and choose a strap with holes that allow for a tight fit while running. A strap that's too loose can mess up heart rate measurements.

Maintenance

Rinse the strap after each outing to remove sweat, which can irritate the skin over time. Let your wrist breathe from time to time. Have a second strap ready to alternate while the other dries.

Where to find the right reference

Your watch model is engraved on the back of the case or indicated in the device settings. Compare it to the strap specifications on this page: the width and the attachment system are noted. If you're unsure, first check the attachment width: it's it that determines compatibility.

Quick-change straps

Some straps snap on without tools thanks to a lever: the action takes just a few seconds. This is ideal for switching from a running strap to a more formal strap in the evening. Check that your watch accepts this system, as it doesn't work for all watches. Widths of 20 and 22 mm are the most common for running models. If you're still in doubt, compare the photo of the strap to your watch, focusing on the attachment side.
