Apple Watch bands that are metal allergy-friendly and comfortable to w

Hello!
I'm Ann from LOVST TOKYO PR.

With the intense heat continuing across the country, summer, when simple, skin-baring fashion is more common, is also a season when accessories truly shine.

However, in this sweaty season, skin problems are a concern. Many people with metal allergies may struggle to balance their desire to enjoy fashion with the burden on their skin.

For those individuals, we recommend the "Apple 3Way Watch Band." We paid special attention to using materials that minimize stress on the skin, making it easy for even those with sensitive skin to use.

In this Staff Blog, we will introduce the appeal of the "Apple 3Way Watch Band" and share real voices from staff members who suffer from metal allergies.

We hope this will be helpful for those struggling with metal allergies and sensitive skin!

What exactly is the "Apple 3Way Watch Band"?

As its name suggests, the "Apple 3Way Watch Band" can be used in three different designs. It is an Apple Watch compatible band from the "Not Only..." collection, which develops functional and sustainable multi-way items not just in material.

You can switch between three patterns by changing the band: the basic "single loop," the glamorous "double loop," and the "chain" which has an accessory-like presence.

You can enjoy arranging it to suit various occasions, from work to private life. Just having one will undoubtedly expand your range of wrist fashion.

Carefully selected materials, precisely because they touch the skin

Because the watch band is in contact with the skin for extended periods, we paid close attention to material selection, prioritizing comfort and minimizing skin irritation.

The outer surface, which does not touch the skin, uses environmentally friendly domestic apple leather "aplena." It boasts a luxurious appearance and high fashionability, with an abundant selection of four colors.

Meanwhile, the inner surface, which is constantly in contact with the skin, features "cork leather" for a smooth and comfortable feel.

"Cork leather" is highly regarded from a sustainability perspective because it is made from cork harvested by peeling the bark of cork oak trees. It is highly absorbent and does not get steamy like rubber bands, so you can wear it comfortably even in sweaty seasons.

Furthermore, the chain part uses "Stainless Steel 316L (medical surgical stainless steel)," which has extremely low allergenicity.

This material is:

Resistant to rust and highly durable
Strong against sweat and moisture, and does not easily discolor
Extremely low in nickel dissolution

It is known as a material that is unlikely to cause metal allergies*.

*Not everyone will be free from allergies.

Real user experience from a staff member with metal allergies

I've had metal allergies for over 10 years, and I'm the type who reacts to sweat.

When an allergy occurs, I tend to get rashes and itching, and if I'm not careful, symptoms appear quickly, even after just half a day out.

However, I've been using the "Apple 3Way Watch Band," primarily the "chain," for over a year now, and I've never had any trouble.

With other accessories, the coating would sometimes peel off over time, and I would suddenly develop an allergy, but that doesn't happen with the "Apple 3Way Watch Band," making it one of the valuable items I can use with peace of mind even in midsummer.

Also, the "chain" adds a touch of flair to my outfits, elevating summer staples like T-shirts and jeans into something chic. It's very versatile for styling, and I wear it almost every day in the summer.

Since I got my ears pierced over 10 years ago, I've occasionally experienced symptoms of metal allergies, and it was often the case that accessories I used to wear suddenly became unusable.

Because of this, I try to buy accessories that are advertised as "hypoallergenic," but even then, they sometimes don't suit my constitution.

However, the Stainless Steel 316L used in the "Apple 3Way Watch Band" is particularly unlikely to cause allergies, even among hypoallergenic options, and I personally feel it's a very reliable material.

In fact, even when I wear the "chain" version of the "Apple 3Way Watch Band" in the summer, I've never experienced any itching or rashes.

I can incorporate it into my fashion just like silver accessories, so it's an indispensable part of my wardrobe that I find myself reaching for whenever I feel my outfit is "missing something."

Comfortable, personalized fashion

The "Apple 3Way Watch Band" was created with the desire to value both "personal style" and "comfort when touching the skin."

It offers a freer way to enjoy fashion with its 3-way design that can be adapted to fashion and mood, and the peace of mind provided by its allergy-friendly and functional materials.

To enjoy wrist fashion in your own way, without being bound by the anxiety of "Is it going to be okay today?". We hope that as many people as possible can experience this joy.

Please find the one that fits your skin and your feelings!
