How To Find The Best Bracelet Strap
Introduction
The bracelet strap is one of the most overlooked aspects of a bracelet. The bracelet strap needs to be strong enough to withstand the stress applied by the weight and motion of your hands and wrists, it needs to be comfortable, and it needs to match what you’re wearing. Below are 3 factors that affect the quality of the bracelet strap.
1. Materials used
Bracelets typically have one among three hardware choices, the first being a lobster claw or hinge clasp. The second choice is a spring ring and the third is a pin clasp. Get what will match best with your taste and style, remember to check if your clasp meets the following criteria when buying it:
Once you’ve decided on what type of clasp to use, you’ll come out with one thing to look for when shopping for a bracelet strap; material thickness. The thicker the material, the more comfortable (or durable) it will be to wear. The heavier the weight of your wrist and hands, a strap that is too thin will not be able to withstand this weight. The rule of thumb: the thicker the bracelet strap, the more sturdy.
2. Type
This factor is more difficult than you think. There are so many different types of bracelet materials out there and different styles of bracelets need to have different types of materials in order to be worn properly and comfortably. The extreme case is the women’s bracelet, this type of bracelet style is able to match a number of different materials and styles.
Buckle bracelets are typically made with a leather or suede strap that is designed to be worn wrapped around your wrist to secure it in place. It is an attractive option because it allows you to squeeze the excess material around your wrist so that you don’t have loose straps flapping around. However, if you have larger wrists, it may look a bit awkward and not as fashionable.
3. Cost
One of the most important factors in buying a bracelet is the price. Obviously, we all want to get a good deal. It’s not always easy to tell if you’ve found a good deal on bracelet straps, but what you should look for are the quality materials and the hardware type. If you find that the wristband is not made well, it will not be of good quality and could fall apart after only a few times wearing it. On the other hand, if it is a brand-name product and has poor material that breaks easily or has a poor clasp on it, then that’s even worse! Hint: Go to your local department store and buy a bracelet they have in stock.
