Yes. Our silicone bands are waterproof, sweat-resistant, and designed for everyday wear, making them ideal for workouts, swimming, and active lifestyles. We recommend rinsing your band after exposure to chlorine or saltwater to help keep it looking its best.

Our bands are made from high-quality materials designed for everyday wear. With proper care, our stainless steel bands are resistant to rust and tarnishing. Like all jewellery and accessories, avoiding harsh chemicals and cleaning your band regularly will help maintain its finish over time.

If a band is not rust or tarnish-resistant, it will be listed in the 'Materials & Care' section of the product listing.

Yes. Our leather collection is made from genuine leather, offering a comfortable fit that develops character over time. As leather is a natural material, each band is unique and will soften beautifully with wear.

Yes! Apple Watch bands are interchangeable across compatible sizes.

If you currently own multiple Apple Watch bands, you can mix and match your Salty Fox bands with your existing Apple Watch, as long as the band size matches your watch size.

For example:

• A band made for 41mm fits Apple Watch cases sized 38mm / 40mm / 41mm / 42mm (S10/11/12)
  
• A band made for 45mm fits Apple Watch cases sized 42mm (S1/2/3) / 44mm / 45mm / 46mm / 49mm
  

This makes it easy to build an Apple Watch band wardrobe for every outfit, occasion, and mood.

Changing your Apple Watch band takes just a few seconds:

1. Turn your Apple Watch face down on a soft surface
   
2. Press and hold the band release buttons on the back of your watch
   
3. Slide your current band out
   
4. Slide your new Salty Fox band in until you feel it click into place
   

If the band doesn’t slide smoothly, make sure it’s aligned correctly and that you’re using the correct size for your Apple Watch model.
