Leather band for Charge 2
I was very interested in having band options for my Charge 2 so it felt more like a true watch than a piece of sports equipment. This band is a great purchase. It snaps easily into place and locks so there is no chance of losing anything. The material is very nice and comfortable. It fits very nicely as well. I had others asking where they could purchase one within days of seeing mine. I would recommend this company's products highly.

Nice, lightweight, comfortable.
Updated review: 10/18/17After about a month of wear, most of the band has darkened significantly. There are a few places where it's still the original color, like where the buckle and loops cover the straps. I'm not sure what caused it to darken, I haven't worn anything with long sleeves where it might have picked up any fabric dye, and I've never gotten it wet or spilled anything on it, so I'm not sure why it darkened so much. I will post photos.I've decided not to let it bother me much, since it appears that this band is not bothering my skin like the original silicone band that came with the Fitbit, so I'll take it as a win.The leather feels softer and more supple now, and hasn't cracked, flaked or fallen apart, so I'm still happy with it. It's just not as nice-looking as it was before.Original review:At first when I handled this band, I thought it had a slightly stiff, papery feel, somewhat like cardboard. It kind of feels like it would crease like paper when folded, but after buckling and adjusting a few times it seems unmarked after all. I can't tell for sure that it's genuine leather, but we'll see if it softens or gets more supple over time.I immediately noticed that it feels more lightweight than the Fitbit's original silicone band.The only thing I would have liked is the option to order one with a rose gold colored buckle to match the rose gold Fitbit.I ordered it because the original band seemed to be irritating the skin on my wrist. I'm not sure if the reaction was to the band or the buckle (I've never had issues with metal allergies that I know of), but I thought I'd try leather in hopes that a natural material might be more breathable and less irritating.I don't anticipate that this band would hold up to a sweaty workout, but I think for everyday wear it would be nice. For exercise, I'll probably switch back to the rubber band for a shorter period of time.

Great band, fair price
Been switching out the fitbit band daily and using this black leather one for work - it appears to be holding up well, and looks great (much nicer than the rubber/plastic fitbit band). I couldn't believe the fitbit brand leather band prices - this appears to be the same thing at a much more reasonable price point. It looks very nice and makes the fitbit suitable for wear with dressy outfits to my super-conservative office.

pretty good Charge 2 leather band for price
Size small - true to size yes Color Chocolate brown - true to color YesThis is my second band- I am a bit rough on all watch bands- leather or plastic I wear through the connectors and particularly the slider that hold the extra pat of the band to the watch. I wear my watch everywhere except when getting wet."The good": Pretty solid leather band for price- it has some sort of plastic where it is hooked up to the metal slide in clips. The sliver matches the silver on my Charge 2. My last band lasted about a year before the leather started to break (it was a different manufacture). The slider and the band holder are leather with a durable backing- my last watch slider had a backing that was not durable and it separated early on making the holder fairly loose and non functional"The Bad ": Where the spacers are for the hooks are a little off for me 2 from the end is a bit too tight in hot weather and 3 is a bit loose (same conditions). I am not sure what the material sandwiched in between the outer leather is and whatever the material is touching your skin but if you bend the watch the opposite you would for a wrist, the leather is stating to balk and it appears to be beginning to separate

Very cute but....
The band makes my Fitbit look much classier, and I really think it is comfortable. The only problem I found was that the leather band is almost like a suede on the top and so I accidentally spilled lotion and other stuff on it and now it has stains. I have only had this band for 3 weeks and now I have a couple water stains, grease stains, dirt stains, etc... I have tried washing it with soap and water, used a toothbrush, tried anything, even vinegar, but the stains are still there. I will buy this band again, but I will definitely not by the this specific color. I will try to get the smooth leather instead of the weave/textured pattern.

Be aware, this is is far shy of a 'large' band
As a larger man, I use the large size official Fitbit band and purchased this band to replace that band. Unfortunately, despite being labeled as equaling the large size (8.1 inches, according to the Fitbit sizing guide), it is significantly smaller. While this band could be made to fit on my wrist, it was tight and only use-able at the last notch.The material looks durable and is attractive. Since I can't use the band, I speak to it's longevity. Long story short: if you're looking for a large band, look elsewhere.

Comfortable, great value
The standard band that came with my Fitbit Charge 2 made my wrist itchy. I don't think I was allergic to the original band, but the plastic-y material made my wrist sweat, and that was uncomfortable.This bayite leather replacement band is comfortable to wear, and it's a great value. The comparable leather band direct from Fitbit costs $70! I bought a black band, and the outside part is black, and the inside part is a tan color. I'm not 100% certain that the black outside part is leather, but it's either leather or really good vinyl. I don't care--the part next to my skin is leather, and the black part looks good enough.The band feels like it might need replacement after a year or two, depending on how much you sweat into it. If it starts looking dingy, I'll apply some Lexol Leather Conditioner, which might help with the longevity.
