Materials

What the band is made of and why.

Last updated: 2026-04-07

The weave

The outer surface is a hand-woven blend of long-staple cotton and recycled polyester thread. Each band takes about 90 minutes to weave; the colour comes from the thread, not from a coating, so it does not chip or fade.

The inner liner

The skin-side liner is a silicone-titanium composite. Silicone for comfort, titanium fibre for thermal conductivity (so the temperature sensor reads accurately) and antimicrobial properties.

The clasp

A brushed titanium magnetic snap. Hold strength is 18 N — enough to survive a hard pull, low enough to release if it catches on something.

Hypoallergenic

No nickel, no chromium, no latex. Safe for the ~12% of adults with metal sensitivities.
