Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Koa wood iWatch Band?
We designed our bands to showcase the beauty of the Koa. We added a metal stringer in Silver or Gunmetal to add strength and compliment the watch color (Gunmetal will match the black face as well). We added a fold-over butterfly clasp to complete the elegant statement.
Which Apple Watch models does it fit?
Pick your case size on the product page — we make the 22mm width to fit the smaller Apple Watch cases (38/40/41mm) and the 24mm width to fit the larger cases (42/44/45/46mm). Adapters come installed so it slides straight into your watch — no extra parts to buy.
How does it feel to wear all day — is wood comfortable?
Way more comfortable than people think. Wood is light weight and soft to the touch..it develops a worn in patina over time that only gets better looking with wear.
Can I resize it myself?
Yes — links pop out with a standard watch-band tool, same as a metal bracelet. We include instructions. Or take it to any watch shop and they'll size it in 5 minutes.
Will it hold up to water, sweat, and daily beating?
Yes — the Koa is sealed under a clear finish that keeps out water and sweat. It's not for swimming in, but rain, showers, workouts, and daily wear are no problem. We're like drunken sailors around the shop — if we can't destroy it, you probably can't either.
What's special about the Hawaiian Koa wood?
Koa only grows in Hawaii and was once reserved for Royalty. It is a cultural anchor and makes up many of the items we view as uniquely Hawaiian.. from the warriors weapons, outrigger canoes, surfboards and the staircase in Iolani Palace..it's beauty is threaded through the Hawaiian story.
