At most times, sweat accumulation inside the band tends to leave a tingling sensation and may even cause skin irritation and rashes. Sports bands manage to avoid that, thanks to the usage of breathable material. The Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 comes in two sizes—41mm and 45mm. Over the years, Samsung maintains the same size for the replacement bands. While a standard 20mm band will fit the 41mm watch, a 22mm band will fit the bigger 45mm watch. Here are our recommendations for the best sports band for the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3. But before that,

1. XFYELE Silicone Soft Rubber Band
Note that you will have to loop the extra length of the strap inside, and this makes the watch a bit tight, especially when you are sweating. If this is an issue for you, it’s best to skip to the next bands. This band is available in two sizes of 20mm and 22mm, and you can take your pick from several bright colors. All the perforations are even, and this aids in the look of the smartwatch. So, strap on your watch, put on your earphones, and sprint away.
2. Wonlex Silicone Watch Band
What makes it even better is that the strap is easy to change and install. All you need to do is pull the pin, insert it into the lug, and then release the pin. If we go by Fakespot’s estimates, around 80% of the reviews are reliable and can be trusted. Like its counterpart above, there are several color options to pick from. My favorite is the black and green option. The best part is that you can match the watch face of the Galaxy Watch 3 against the color of your band. Cool, right?
3. Fintie Nylon Replacement Strap
This strap’s unique look, together with the flexibility and comfort quotient, makes it convenient to wear even during regular days. It’s available in the 20mm size and is suitable for the 41mm Galaxy Watch 3. If you are not a huge fan of big and bold patterns, you can check out the other Fintie bands. They have the same properties. The only difference is that they are in neutral shades like Brown and Black. Check out the Black Fintie Bands
4. Sycreek Quick Release Bands
The perforations are plentiful, and like the other bands in this list, it also sports a dual color tone. At the same time, the band is easier to clean. All you need to do is wipe it off with a clean cloth after your swimming sessions or cycling stints. The Sycreek bands are among the cheapest in this list, and the cheap pricing means you have to compromise on some aspect or the other. In this case, it’s the buckle as it tends to rust soon.
5. AVOD Nylon Sport Quick Release Bands
These nylon bands are not expensive, which means that you can switch between different bands from time to time. And at times, you can even match them with the color of your outfit. The Avon bands are available in many different colors and prints and are available in 20mm and 22mm sizes. I have been wearing a nylon band with my Galaxy Active 2 for about 3 months now, and trust me when I say that they are much more comfortable than the stock silicon bands or leather bands.
6. ANCOOL Sport Replacement Band
However, it’s not without its share of limitations. For one, even the longer lengths may run short for some users. Plus, the band is a little on the thicker side, especially when compared to its counterparts above.
Fitness First
The stock bands of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 sport a premium look. However, they are not comfortable to wear, especially if you live in a hot and humid place. In such cases, nylon bands or perforated silicon bands are the ideal solutions. Double-check the band’s size and the bands’ maximum length before you click on the Buy button.
