Watch Straps for a Cool and Casual Summer
Come the sunshine and warmer weather everything is just a bit more casual. For the sake of style and comfort we change our wardrobes and bring out the short sleeves, sunglasses, shorts and hats. So why not change your watch strap for the same relaxed look for your watch as you do for your clothes and be just as comfortable?
With so much choice these days what straps do you choose?
Nylon, canvas and rubber are the obvious choices here — they’re lightweight, soft, breathable and can be washed free of any sand, salt water and sweat. Leather is always a good choice but keep it light and possibly choose something perforated for enhanced airflow.
For an effortless, casual cool, any of these straps will transform your watch into a eye-catching, heat-beating, time-keeping, companion
