Apple Watch Sport Bands: FKM & Silicone

FKM and silicone are different

Pulse and Motion use FKM fluoroelastomer. Hybrid combines a leather exterior with a silicone lining: a different construction that should not be treated as an all-rubber band. Follow the care guidance for each material.

Choose your model’s size

Pulse is currently offered for 44, 45, 46 and 49 mm cases. Motion and Hybrid have other size options. Check the individual product page before ordering.

Compare Pulse, Motion and Hybrid

Pulse brings two-tone colours and raised textures. Motion offers its own FKM design with channels on the inner surface. Hybrid combines leather and silicone for a different finish. Compare the part that touches your wrist, the closure and the available size: a sporting appearance alone does not describe the whole construction.

A comfortable fit starts with the right adjustment

Choose the compatible case size first, then use the fastening to find a comfortable wrist fit. Check the fit again when changing activities and make sure the band and adapters are secure. Pulse is available in the large case-size group; use the product options to compare the smaller sizes offered by other designs.

After an active day

Remove residue and allow the band to dry before putting it away, following the cleaning instructions for that model. FKM and a leather-and-silicone band need different care. If your day includes swimming, check both the selected band’s guidance and your Apple Watch’s water-use limits; the band does not change the watch’s rating.
