Quality from one end to the other, and USA made!
I’m never a factory band type man, almost never like them. Such is the case with my Apple Ultra. So I was band shopping even before the watch arrived. I tried 3 different bands of tactical styles. They just didn’t cut it. I wish I would have started with this band for me, it checks all the boxes. The quick change ends are quality and match the titanium Ultra perfectly. ( I do not know if they are titanium) The weave of the paracord is fine, even, and tight. The Cobra quick couple buckle is top quality. And the whole thing is manufactured in the USA OHIO (excluding the Cobra Buckle made in Europe) sizing was just right by using their sizing chart. I have no negatives to think of. I will say the first two or three times installing on your wrist it’s a bit stiff so connecting the buckle can be a little challenging. But after the third time it is more signed and shaped to your wrist and clips together like a charm. ( tip: I put a drop or two of synthetic utility oil on the insert part of the buckle works even better like greased lightning) you would be fine to use any brand. I recommend this band fully, the color and the craftsmanship definitely takes this fine watch to a even higher level. Get one!!

Nice paracord band for Apple Watch Ultra
I emailed Kordiz. My wrist measures 6-3/4”. I had an Apple Watch Series 6 and had preordered the Apple Watch Ultra. I wasn’t sure on small or xs. I knew the Apple Watch Ultra was about 5mm bigger than my current Series 6. The recommendation the small. I went with their expertise. The above pictures show the band on the Series 6 first and then on the Apple Watch Ultra.⚡️I like the cobra clasp.⚡️The paracord is awesome.⚡️The size is perfect. Had I gone with the xs I’m not sure I could could clasp it. The small is about perfect. It fits a little loose, but probably 1/32” play in the band. I like my watches to be fairly snug and not sliding around on me.⚡️The band looks and feels pretty manly.I chose black so that it will go with just about anything. I wear it swimming and showering. Hasn’t seemed to shrink. The clasp can be a little tricky. As you can see from the pictures I wear my watch “upside down” therefore to make sure the the little round button weaved into the band is on the outside I have wear my band backwards with makes the clasp a little more difficult to snap on. If you wear the right way there is a guide that the inserted lock slides a long to to snap into place.⚡️The clasp IS NOT coming off. It is locked in good and tight. I cannot pull it apart.VERY PLEASED with my purchase.⚡️It is quite a bit of money, but made, assembled, from what I understand all orders are specially made and sold by Americans. And I believe you get what you pay for sometimes.

Feels premium
I loved the look in the ads, but I was skeptical. My fear was it could look cheap, feel uncomfortable, or hard to put on.Let me get one thing out of the way, it is way more comfortable than the original apple band. The best watch band is the one you don’t feel and this one is exactly that. Of course I measured my wrist obsessively.And the look. I was hoping for it to give “I have an overpriced Apple tech but I’m not a total nerd” look. This makes my watch look like a casual bracelet. Love it so far. I might get a second color :).Finally I researched multiple paracord bands and the ones with screws are impossible to put on. The clicking buckle is easy to put on.

Excellent fit
Fit extremely well

Great strap
Fits almost too perfect. Super secure Cobra latch. The male end of strap lines up a bit crooked making it even harder to clasp. Be sure to accurately measure your wrist.Hopefully available in orange soon.

Fitnent chart not accurate.
I used a garment tape measure to get an exact measurement and fell firmly into the XXL category. The watch is so loose it can’t even hold orientation on my wrist, let alone take accurate ekg/sp02 readings. I can swap it out but shipping also took ten days.

Worth every penny
The media could not be loaded. I was unsure of this product at first because of the steep price . But I am super happy I went ahead and purchased it. I wanted it for my archery hunt back in September and the Kordiz helped ensure I received in time as they were very easy to communicate with. The only down side for me was that I have smaller wrists in comparison to most. I ordered a medium size but it was to big , however I used boiling water and then left the band out on the porch in the sun, it almost became too tight but after wearing it for a weekend it was perfect! I wanted something rugged but also versatile to wear in the backcountry. I use my watch to track our distance and track where we are. Having the paracord as a backup option for “worst case scenarios” which have happened in a previous hunt where I couldn’t reach my pick but needed rope for a quick shimmy. While I’m glad I didn’t need it this year I still plan to bring it out every year while it lasts.The buckle is very strong and could be used in many survival situations as well, but it’s also stylish and I’ve received many compliments on it as I find my self wearing it more and more everyday. I bought a green rubber case to match the band and it looks great! Thanks Kordiz

Sloppy, low quality
Puddles of glue on the outside of the band. Mis-alignment bands to cord.It look great on the site, poor execution and to embarrassed to wear. Best suited as trash.
