The best Fitbit Sense 2 bands

The Fitbit Sense 2 is the latest addition to the company’s leading smartwatch line. Between the device’s advanced health tracking and insightful sleep monitoring, you’ll hardly ever want to take it off your wrist. However, all-day wear requires all-day comfort, and, if it’s not too much to ask, a healthy dose of style. Check out the bands below for all of the above.

Dirrelo Sport Bands: The best classic Fitbit Sense 2 replacement band

These bands represent the familiar with a classic smartwatch band style. Like the strap that came with your device, Dirrelo’s sport bands offer a soft, flexible fit perfect for multi-day use. We especially love how the waterproof silicone cleans up easily after particularly sweaty workout sessions. That means consistent wear and stress-free tracking between charges. Plus, pin-and-tuck construction reliably keeps your device strapped on while options in small and large sizes account for wrists of all dimensions. 

Most importantly, Dirrelo bands come in a variety of colors so you can rock the shade that best suits your wardrobe. They’re even sold in affordable packs of four so you can keep your look fresh. From neutrals to pastels, these bands offer your Sense 2 much more variety than you’ll find out of the box. You can grab a set for about $10.

Laffav Slim Silicone Bands: The best Fitbit Sense 2 bands for thin wrists

Slim wrists often call for something well, slimmer. If you don’t favor the bulky look of a traditional smartwatch band, these tapered options from Laffav might be the ticket.

Like the Dirrelo Sport Bands above, Laffav Slim Bands sell in multi-color packs of four. Sets include everything from tonal collections of blues and grays to variety packs with a range of colors. Each pack is also available in sizes small and large. If you’re looking for a band with a narrower form factor, these $13 packs are hard to beat.

With certified ECG and EDA sensors, the Fitbit Sense 2 is a dedicated health monitor above all. If fitness tracking is mostly an afterthought, you may be shopping for something more elevated than a sports band. Enter stainless steel. This metal band from Intoval offers the elegance of an analog watch even while you keep tabs on your health. Key features include durable, scratch-resistant electroplating and removable link construction. It even comes with the tools you need to take out links and adjust the band to your perfect size.

Avod Nylon Bands: The best hook and loop bands for sleep tracking

It’s no secret that we are big fans of the whole Fitbit ecosystem, but the company really stands out in its sleep tracking. The Sense 2 features all the best overnight monitoring Fitbit has to offer, from SpO2 measurements and snore detection to sleep scores and new sleep profiles. If getting a grip on your slumber is a priority, you’ll need a band with maximum comfort.

This nylon option from Avod is the perfect companion for taking your device to bed. The strap itself is light and airy and completely clasp-less. It doesn’t feature any hard parts that might poke you overnight. Instead, you set your fit with a velcro closure that is easy to adjust. You can purchase an Avod band in a huge selection of colors for just $7.99 or in select colors in packs of two.

Grtrees Elastic Nylon Bands: An elastic option for overnight comfort

Designed to slip on and off, these elastic bands are also made of flexible nylon for optimal comfort and durability. Instead of a velcro closure, Grtrees bands feature an adjustable buckle so you can set the loop to your appropriate size. Then, simply stretch the band over your hand to take your device on and off. 

For overnight tracking, Grtrees bands offer a snug but comfortable fit. They are also fine for workouts though they do take more time to dry than silicone if you need to rinse off sweat. Luckily, they’re sold in packs of five so you can swap on an alternative while your first band is drying. For just $15 the bands come in a mix of muted and vibrant colors.
