Keep track of your activity without restricting your wrist movement with this ActionSleeve armband for Apple watch. Easy to strap onto your bicep, the band keeps your watch secure and in view as you exercise. The tight skin contact of this ActionSleeve armband can help provide accurate readings on heartrate and other stats.
I've been a huge TwelveSouth fan ever since I discovered their products. Their products are exclusive to Apple and they have some killer designs (bookbook for example). However I have never bought any of their products... just love them though (but I've always wanted bookbook for iPhone)
This armband is the first product they have that I *need* as I've started cross training and Olympic lifting for about a year now.
Not only does this free up my wrist to allow me to wear wrist wraps for weight lifting... I have been getting more accurate readings during my "WODs". I use to range anywhere from 300-550 total Cals and average BPM around 100. Now total cals range from 450-700 and BPM around 120-135
Only one con though, which I hinted in the title.. quality. See attached image, did not expect the part you grab to undo the strap to come apart in less than 1 weeks worth of use. It doesn't not work as a result but I thought... prolly luck of the drawl, if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have any kinda thing.
Well I bought one for my wife and almost same exact thing happen to hers as well
I'm not gonna put up a fuss but I am a little disappointed in it happening... I've still been using it regardless. And id still recommend it.
Keep your 42mm Apple Watch in place with this Nomad band. The brown leather provides a comfortable fit on your wrist, and the custom hardware holds up to daily wear.

I have the first gen space gray Apple Watch. Tired of the "I'm about to work out" looking band and has been somewhat difficult to find a band that compliments the space gray Apple Watch. Nomad did a killer job here. Been rocking mine for a few weeks now and no issues.
Would definitely buy some of their other bands down the road
Charge your Apple Watch and iPhone at the same time with this Nomad base station. There's no need for cables with this fully integrated charger, which works with both Watch 1 and Watch 2. This Nomad base station has a stylish aluminum finish, and it charges devices with or without cases.
This unit is missing ONE thing (well actually 2... but I'll add that at end of review) .. a light for the purposes of being the perfect night stand dock for my watch and phone. Beyond that, absolutely love it. First dock I found that supports Apple Watch night stand mode! And it has a built in magnetic charger instead of using your own Apple Watch charger.
I had bought one off Amazon "PowerBear" and it's got the light and 2 additional USB ports for charging additional devices. I've gone thru 2 of those where it just stops charging the iPhone and you have to ghetto rig it to get night stand mode to work.
So far this Nomad dock has been money.
CON: only two, no light and additional chargers.
So long as it continues to charge my iPhone and Watch, I won't be replacing It until a dock/stand combines these 4 features - charge iPhone, charge Apple Watch and support night stand mode, has an additional (two even) USB ports for additional charge if support & has a dimable light
