I hope Suunto will come with nylon straps someday :-)

It would be great with the Suunto Race!

There are endless options for 22mm nylon straps on amazon, a Garmin 22mm ultrafit should work just fine. I have the 26mm version on my Enduro 2 and its very comfortable.

@Storz I know, but I would like something directly from Suunto

@martintrail a few weeks ago I ordered a genuine Suunto Explore I Forest Green to go with my SV. Are they out of stock again?

To be honest, this one feels a bit stiff and rough compared to the black nylon strap that came with S9B Ambassador. That was one comfy strap!!!

I’m with you on this. Seems like such an odd oversight from Suunto to not sell any nylon Velcro straps, especially when they tout HRV and sleep tracking. The Suunto 7 (24mm) came with them. A little red triangle on a black nylon strap and they’ll sell like hot cakes. In the meantime I use one from Amazon.

I don’t know how it was on the S9B, but I agree that the Suunto Explore Forest Green is really bad. After only 2 months and a few washes it is already fraying 59€ ok?

Hello friends,
Reviving this topic to avoid polluting the latest hot fix thread.
What kind of nylon strap do you currently use?
In the summer I bought the 30€ Coros nylon strap but got worn out very quickly. A couple of weeks ago bought a 22 mm nylon Garmin strap which feels pretty good. Waiting for Suunto to come up with their own nylon strap.

I’ve also ordered the Garmin one, but it still hasn’t arrived yet, and I’m already having second thoughts about it. I came across a forum discussion about the upcoming Suunto watch, and after doing some research, it looks like Suunto will be releasing some nylon bands soon

@Dan-Cantir I find the Garmin one very good quality but still want to buy a nylon strap from Suunto.

In another thread, a user linked to the FCC page with documents about the rumored Suunto “Run” watch.
One of the external photos showed the watch with a Nylon Strap. Maybe there will be something soon.
I was also close to order another Nylon Strap. But due to that picture, I am waiting.

@martintrail They did have Nylon straps in 24mm, I bought a couple. I hope they come back too.

I think Suunto keeps 22mm size and if Fccid says right…
Next watch (aka R*n) will come with nylon straps.

Thanks Suunto

I buy mine from Etsy - cheap and work great. going on 1.5 years and no issues.

It doesn’t make sense another “run” watch when there are Race, RaceS and even 9PP. And having one old model for adventure and that’s the only watch that makes sense

Maryn

@martintrail It makes sense to have another running watch that is cheaper. In fact, Suunto currently has nothing in the low-budget segment.

martintrail

@Maryn yeah, good point
