Review on ๐Ÿƒ Garmin Forerunner 235 Black Marsala Replacement Band: Superior Style & Functionality by Sandra Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It does the job

I'm deducting a star just because it doesn't quite look like the tape it replaces. I had the original tape for about 3.5 years. And eventually it broke. This new one fits my Forerunner 230 perfectly. The tools that came with it worked as intended. The difference in straps is that they are made of different materials. This new softer silicone. It doesn't hold its shape as well as the original, so the loose loop ring that holds the end of the strap in place doesn't slide really well. So turning your watch on and off frequently can be a bit annoying. In addition, the new tape has become a bit thinner. It didn't matter yet (I've had it for a few days now). The wearing comfort is unobtrusive. It serves its purpose and is really cute. I'm happy for that! Will update when it breaks.
