Wet Woven Lavender not beautiful!
I know, it's purple... And you want it bad. So did I and I had to have it!I ordered it separately from my new Versa, (my mother's day/anniversary gift from my husband.) I ordered the silver Versa and thought the lavender would look fabulous! Plus, it came in before my Versa arrived, so the shipping was timely. Packaging was minimal, easy to open, without waste.It looked great, but I noticed the "woven" bands felt stiff like cardboard with material glued to it. I tried to put it together and omg! I got very frustrated pulling the little levers back and forth, trying to hit these tiny little holes on the shank. Fitbit should rethink that design! Ugh! Finally with a few blessings I got it snapped in. It was a nice fit and I have a large wrist.The Versa is a water resistant watch and made for active lifestyles, so think about this band before you buy it. Are you planning on running, biking or swimming? If so, this band is not water resistant. Which means wearing it during activities that cause sweating or other types of wet environments, the band will begin to absorb it.I'm a daily swimmer and I didn't think about the effects. I was just so enamoured by the lavender color, I wore it for everything and should have worn it for special occasions instead of my daily exercise. The end curled up even though there are 2 straps to keep the band in place. I also noticed the edges were beginning to unravel a bit and discoloration was apparent as well.The watch band is 4 stars bc of the stiff cardboard feel and nothing more. I chose poorly so I hope this info helps you in your decision. This band is pretty and good for daily wear, but not for swimming and exercise in my opinion.

Hard to attach at first but worth it!
Overall I like this band. Good quality and it looks good! The only issue is it was very difficult to get the pins in place. The band is stiff and very NEW feeling, it was blocking being able to “click” the final end in on both sides. I had to smush the fabric to loosen it up before it finally allowed enough room to be able to connect.BUT once it was connected it is sturdy, fits very well and is comfortable. It also came with a spar pin...always good to have a back up just in case something happens!Despite the fabric being stiff there is no irritation on the skin, and I have very sensitive skin! I feel it will loosen up, I’ll update again after a little more time wearing it!The color is absolutely perfect!!

Great customer service
The band feels pretty cheap. Putting this on the Fitbit is very hard as the fabric around the pin gets in the way and won’t let the pin set in correctly. I had to use a tooth pick and force it in. It’s only been a few days and the band is starting fray.**update**The seller was quick to reach out to me and advised me that they had made a revision to their product that has made it easier to put it on the Fitbit. They wanted to send me the updated band but I had already purchased a different band at this point. Fortunately they were kind enough to refund me instead. Great customer service!

Broke after wearing more than one day
This product looks high quality and it can be if you only wear it during the day for one day at a time. First, it comes with just a plain pin with no slide bar on one of the bands for you to be able to attach it to the watch so immediately, you have to try and put the other pin with the slide bar in the band so you can attach it to the watch. These slide bars stick up so much farther than necessary which ultimately led to it breaking off and having to cut the band in order to take it off the watch.The only reason it got two stars was because this product came with a little tool to help with moving the slide bar when swapping bands.

Overall, good band.
I like how it looks, I like the 'softness' factor of it I guess you can say but I do see the end of the flap starting to wear already and it hasn't been all that long that I've worn it.One of the straps that you slide the band into, is also a bit tight at the beginning but it spreads out overtime and it becomes easier to slide the band through.Overall it does what I wanted it to, honestly prefer it over the original silicone band, at least when my hands get wet, I don't have that weird feel with this one.

Fits and functions great, material isn’t very soft.
I like the band overall. The material is very stiff at first but I think it will get more flexible over time. It was easy to swap out the bands and the band is definitely good for both large and small wrists because it has a lot of different size options and the little clips to hold any extra band if your wrists are on the smaller side. Overall, this is a good product and my only real gripe is how stiff it is. I wish it was a little bit softer.

Thinner than silicone band
Nice red color. Much thinner than silicone band. At first very stiff but after about 24 hrs loosened up a little. So far no fraying of material. Nice double loops to secure excess strap and great to have extra pins to attach to watch if one breaks.

Sadly, it did not fit…
My wrist is small and I use the second to the last hole on the original band and it fits snug. This band however, does not fit a small wrist. The last hole is still very loose. See the images in comparison to the original periwinkle band. It's missing at least 3 holes to fit a small wrist. The material is super stiff and it was a struggle to put in. Waited so long for this but I'm really disappointed.
