Tips about rubber strap
Rubber strap is more diversified in design and selection. As strap can be treated in a variety of ways, so it is very popular among young people. It has many characteristics: waterproof, anti-fouling, scratch-resistant, non-fragile, cold and heat proof. It has high comfort experience when wearing. However, rubber strap is slightly less breathable, and it is best to take off when sweating. And the light rubber strap should avoid contacting with ballpoint pen and other contact strips, otherwise it will be difficult to remove.
