Fitbit Flex 2 Real Leather Band - Replacement Band for Fitbit Flex 2 - Full Grain Fit Bit Flex Band

I recieved the leather band for my Fitbit Flex 2 today, right on time as expected. The band was packaged up nicely. It was double bagged with a bubble envelope as well as wrapped neatly in tissue paper. There was a business card as well as an actual handwritten thank you note inside. That was a nice touch. The sizing was perfect based off their size chart. I'm glad I measured my wrist because their chart stated I should get a size large which is not the size I typically get with massproduced items. My wrist is generally a small/medium in other products. Again, measure your wrist & review their chart. The quality appears to be very fine with nice thick leather. Stitching is clean & neat as well. Fantastic design as to how my tracker fits inside. I'm very happy with my band & I believe the quality should hold up well. If there is any issue over time with the quality I will update my review.

The media could not be loaded.  I wanted to wait a few months before I wrote this review and I’m happy to report I am still very pleased with this band for my Fitbit. I was wary of spending so much and couldn’t be happier I did. Many are shocked it has a Fitbit in it and thought it was a cool leather bracelet. I was initially nervous it would look or be perceived as feminine for a guy to wear it but that has not been my experience.Although it fit great from day one, after a few weeks it started to adjust more to the shape of my wrist and became even more comfortable. I wear it nearly 24/7, only removing it to shower or charge the Fitbit. It really has become that comfortable. I’m impressed with how it is holding up after landscaping, camping, multiple building projects, auto repair and general rough use. If you could fit two different sizes, I’d choose the smaller so that the tail doesn’t get to long and catch on stuff.Unlike others who’ve had issues removing the Fitbit to charge or swap bands, I have not. I’m a horrible video taker, but hopefully the attached one helps. It is a little tougher when new but as the leather softens up it gets very easy.

Fabulous leather band for your fit bit! Slot lines up perfectly so you can see all the lights! 2 important points. My wrist measures a size 6.25”. I have it in the second to the last hole, leaving the last hole unused. I still have room to easily stick one finger under the band without forcing it, so the band is not tight at all but I still easily feel the vibration from it. Very thick leather that will most likely last longer than me. Use a good leather conditioning cream, like Bicks, (also sold on Amazon) as soon as you get it and it will make it much softer and easier to wear without waiting for the several week break in period needed. I would expect once this breaks in from wearing it, I might get it one more hole tighter, but either way I am not on the last hole and I don’t need to add holes. Despite it’s thickness, the weight is almost nonexistent. Hardly tell I have it on and to me is much more comfortable than the non-breathable silicone rubber ones once conditioned. Returned the medium, because it was way too big, even though the sizing specs said it would fit. It did fit my wrist, but the end of the strap was far too long, so it would stick out, get hung on stuff, and it made the band look too big for my wrist. Highly recommend for men or leather loving women!

I love the slender look and fit of the Flex 2 but have been frustrated with the Flex 2 bands. Many of the silicone bands twist on my wrist, exposing the underside, and the tracker falls out. So I like that the tracker is securely enclosed in this leather band. And the quality, as most reviewers agree, is above par.However, this band is not as slender as I would like. But, to be fair, I don't think there's any way to meaningfully reduce the size of the part of the band that houses the unit. I'm also irritated by the buckle on the M band (and larger sizes). There's a piece on the buckle that slides slightly and I hear it in a quiet environment. The buckle also hits and rubs the desk when I work. Therefore, I don't see myself wearing the band to work each day.I also suggest ordering one size larger for a roomier fit. I ordered the M and, though it fits, it's tighter than I prefer because the holes are placed closer to the housing unit (further up the band) than the buckle.

It was a little stiff/uncomfortable to wear for the first few weeks, but it eventually broke in, and I prefer it to the silicone bands. I get lots of compliments, and it goes with everything. My one piece of feedback for the manufacturer is that somehow you should make it a little smaller/less bulky for female wrists, about the size of a narrow watchband that you typically see for women. I was on the cusp of the small vs med. size.. I went with the medium, should have probably gone with the small.
