<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/field/image/2015/04/apple-watch-try-on-bands.JPG?itok=KAAPcRji' />[/url]</p> <p class="intro">Apple isn't the only company with Apple Watch bands. Here are some really cool third-party options.</p> <p>Apple has some of the most coveted, elegant, and just plain cool Apple Watch (http://www.imore.com/apple-watch) bands available, but they don't have a corner on the market. If a Milanese is out of your price range or the Leather Loop just really doesn't do it for you, maybe third-party manufacturers are where you should look. We've rounded up some favorites for you here.</p> <p><!--break--> </p> <h2>Casetify</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/catetify-band.jpg)?itok=T--G41MK' />[/url]</p> <p>Back in the 1980s, there were few fashion brands as coveted as Swatch — which has maintained its bold, fashion-forward sensibility ever since. Casetify seeks to capture some of that Swatch magic with a variety of custom-created designs, including ones of your own making (http://www.casetify.com/design/apple-watch)! You can also upload a photo or a design you've created. Don't count on seeing these until some time in June, but if you can be patient (and many of us have no choice when it comes to the Watch, anyway), then you can get a custom-designed Apple Watch band and express yourself uniquely.</p> <ul><li>$50 - Preorder now (http://www.casetify.com/collections/apple_watch)</li> </ul><h2>Monowear</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/monowear-leather-strap.jpg)?itok=0vG6qnZy' />[/url]</p> <p>Monowear is taking orders for leather, metal, and nylon Apple Watch bands priced from $59.99 to $119.99 depending on their design and composition. Nylon is the least expensive at $59, and will be available in a variety of colors including purple. Leather comes in matte or semi-gloss finishes, depending on which color you pick. If you're priced out of the Milanese or the Link Bracelet but want something approximating that look, Monowear can offer you some less expensive options.</p> <ul><li>$59.99 - Preorder now (http://www.monoweardesign.com/shop) </li> </ul><h2>WiPowerBand</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/wipowerband.jpg)?itok=yJD8TzJQ' />[/url]</p> <p>18 hours of battery life not enough? If you think you need extra juice for your Apple Watch, the WiPowerBand promises to deliver some extra oomph when it ships in May/June. A 250mAh lithium-polymer battery is encased in a polypropylene plastic core surrounded by silicone rubber skin, and charges up with a Lightning cable. 42mm Watch-buyers have blue, white, and black options priced at $99; if you run small and are going with the 38mm instead, your color choices are orange, white, and pink, each for $89.</p> <ul><li>$89 - Preorder now (http://www.wipowerband.com)</li> </ul><h2>MyCell</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/mycell.jpg)?itok=kAdmH3ZY' />[/url]</p> <p>MyCell is readying a line of replacement bands for the Apple Watch that approximate Apple's designs. They have their own knockoff versions of the Leather Loop, Milanese, Modern Buckle, and Sports Band in a variety of colors, some sized for the 38mm Watch, some for the 42 mm. Prices range from $24.49 - $244.49 - a wide range, admittedly, but that's for a handsome stainless steel band. They won't start shipping until the end of May, but you can pre-order on Amazon now.</p> <ul><li>$24.49 - <a href="http://www.amazon.com/MyCell-Black-Genuine-Leather-Replacement/dp/B00UGHK7RI?tag=imoreb-20&m1k=d_im" title="" rel="nofollow">Preorder now[/url]</li> </ul><h2>Click</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/click.jpg)?itok=s6QTDxwh' />[/url]</p> <p>Funded with a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign, Click aims to enable Apple Watch owners to use any 22mm watch band via adapter. Slide the included pin into your preferred watch band, secure the band onto Click, then slide Click in place on the Apple Watch. The company aims to offer sizes to fit both the 38mm and 42mm watches, and comes in different pin finishes to match your respective Apple Watch. Available in polymer, aluminum, and stainless steel, for $19.99, $24.99 and $34.99 respectively. Coming in June.</p> <ul><li>$19.99 - Pre-order (https://www.get-click.com)</li> </ul><h2>Incipio</h2> <p><a href='http://www.imore.com/here-come-third-party-apple-watch-bands' title="Here are the third-party Apple Watch bands"><img src='(http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large/public/field/image/2015/04/incipio-bands.jpg)?itok=wBacOcVQ' />[/url]</p> <p>The well-known maker of iPhone, iPad, and Mac cases and accessories is getting into the Apple Watch band market with a line of nylon bands.
