I got a new AW and I feel like this band has gotten a bit darker? Does anyone know the best way to clean it? Also, I usually just rinse the watch, but it feels super gross bc I sweat so much while running. Pls help a clean girl! Thank youuuu :)

    I used to have this band, and I gave up cleaning it in 2 weeks. I got one of the Nike+ bands and I haven’t looked back. Fabric bands on a watch which is going to be tanking a lot of sweat was never going to be a good idea, probably the best way to clean out as much sweat/salt (mostly the salt) as possible would be to soak the band in soapy water but idk how well that would work.

    Drizzle dish detergent on each side of the watchband. Immerse in hot water and hand scrub. Rinse very well and hang to dry. You should do this at least twice a week if you’re getting all sweaty. You might also consider getting two or three other nylon sports loops so you can change out to a nice clean dry band whenever your want.

    I was really surprised too; they get dirty extremely fast. If it looks bad I just use soap and my hands to wash it quickly. Other then that you can simply throw it in the wash.
