Apple Watch wearers know that one of the best parts of owning one is being able to customize it to match your style and mood, and the easiest way to do so is by switching out the band. For those looking for a new way to dress up their smart watch as well as looking to add some sustainability to their everyday look, Spark*l Bands have you covered. Their wide selection of all designer fabric watch bands are chic yet casual, the perfect bands for a day in the office or brunch with the girls.
Founded on the idea that fashion is versatile, Spark*l was born as an alternative to the standard rubber Apple Watch band. All Spark*l bands are created from upcycled vintage designer bags that are no longer able to be used as they are too worn, torn or simply old. As a company that values sustainability, it is their mission to take these once loved bags and create something new for someone else to love just as much! Plus, with each band individually handcrafted from pre-loved bags, they are each perfectly unique—no two bands are exactly alike!
“To envision a better future for fashion, one of reviving traditional designs, utilizing upcycled materials, and creating new aesthetics. To incorporate the iconic patterns that built the history of designer fashion, while simultaneously capturing a new feeling of modernity and youth by combining the freedom of creativity with southwestern bohemia,” Spark*l says.
You can also get involved in helping Spark*l incorporate sustainability into their business. If you have a designer bag that you’re willing to part with and allow Spark*l to transform into a beautiful band, you can do so through their Upcycle Your Bag program in exchange for a gift card or custom product.
