Very impressed.
Very high quality elastic. It has a nice firmness to it and is not as soft / floppy as some other brands. The color is spot on OD Green with a yellow stripe and it looks sharp.

good band, only one of this style i could find with black/orange stripe and black connectors
This watch band seems overall pretty good, it isn't quite as stretchy or soft feeling as a couple other brands I've purchased of same style strap, but so far gas held up fine and seems to be getting softer, but not in a way of fabric wearing out, as i wear the band. It goes with my eatch great.

Comfortable & Good Looking Watch Band
I was hoping to find a watch band that would keep my watch firmly in place without being uncomfortably tight. I find that I'm often in between adjustments on watch bands so it's either too tight or loose enough to be bothersome when it shifts up and down my arm while I'm working. I'm happy to report that this band accomplishes my goal quite nicely!The included tool for removing spring bars is surprisingly nice and made it a breeze to get the old band off this watch. The install is super simple and straightforward for this style of band, especially with the directions with images in the listing. Once it's on, you simply stretch it over you hand, pull the hook end to take out the slack, and then hook it into the catch. It was easy to adjust this to a point that was comfortable for me and I have had no issues with it moving on me since I set it. It's worth noting that the band felt particularly tight at first but broke in after maybe an hour or so of wearing it. I've had zero problem with the clasp unhooking itself like one review mentioned, and can't even see how that would happen if it's adjusted properly.One thing that I really like about this band was that I am able to rotate the clasp so it's not right on the bottom of my wrist, which is a very nice benefit when I'm spending a lot of time in a position where my wrist is resting on something like a desk. I've found that if the band gets a bit wet, it dries very quickly. It's super nice having the watch stay in exactly one place and not move around my arm as I go through activities in my day.I imagine that the band will stretch and/or lose some elasticity over time, but with how much adjustability there is in the clasp mechanism, I have no concerns about that keeping it from being functional for a very long time.After a few solid days of wear including some hard use, I am super happy with this watch band and would most definitely recommend it. If you're concerned about getting this because of the current star rating, take a look at the reviews and you'll see people taking stars off for silly reasons like not knowing how to install it (again, there are instructions in the listing if you're unsure) and for ridiculous reasons like it being elastic (which is LITERALLY the first word in the listing title lol).

minimalistic, but hard to buckle
My biggest issue is the buckle design, both the buckle and the adjuster are thin stamped steel. The buckle hook has a rather large opening, which made it a little bulky, but more problematic is that it is supposed to hook on the adjuster , but the adjuster just doesn't have the space to hook it very easily So attaching it became difficult. The fabric here is very thin, good for those who love the minimalistic look and feel and stretchy, so you can keep it fairly tight without discomfort. I was hoping for something more robust and military inspired. This certainly works and has the extra benefit that a pin breaking or coming loose woudl not result in a lost watch. The other PIN would still hold it on.it came with a pin tool and 2 extra pins

Good quality paracord style band
I absolutely love these french military bands. Even though they aren't as easy to swap as NATO-style straps, they're wonderful for flexibility and breathability and have the absolute best adjustment function of any strap out there.I own one from the 'original' (much more expensive) brand and have found that although others may have a tiny dip in quality, that essentially as long as the clasp is well-made that these all function very similarly.I really like this color combo (green/yellow) and have used it on both a 22mm Panerai and 21mm Longines and it fits both fairly well. It works great in water and dries quickly and offers the easy adjustment that i mentioned. Overall a 5-star product as these can be difficult to find for the price.

The Biggest Problem Is Buckling It!
True to size, stylish, and comfortable. It's almost the perfect watch band. Almost. I spent more time trying to get the buckle in place once the watch was on my wrist, than actually getting the spring bars in place and getting the strap on the watch itself. The band is a nice stretchy material, and true to it's description, it is breathable, and comfy. However, I kept asking myself as I was trying to buckle it "why aren't I just using my NATO strap instead?" Now that being said, once you actually get it buckled, it looks very nice. It isn't overly expensive, I'd say it's fairly competitive with your standard NATO strap, but the buckle needs a bit of refinement. It's so close to a perfect 5, but not quite. Still, a good band overall. I'd recommend it if you like the look, just be prepared for a little struggle.

Unusable due to manufacturing error
I was excited to receive this watch band in a 20mm size as the colorway is just perfect on many watches.The fabric is thick and a little bit stiff. Likely great after a few wears but I didn't get to find out.My strap was manufactured incorrectly. The way Elastic Parachute style straps are made, all of the hardware is sewn in. Nizonlaie elected to use a sizing buckle with extra clearance on one side to allow the metal buckle to easily be used, nice touch. The other side of this buckle is smaller, likely helping to reduce slippage. My buckle was installed with the extra clearance side facing the wrong direction, away from the hooked clasp, making the strap impossible to buckle on your wrist.Sometimes mistakes happen, I get that. In this instance I cannot fix the mistake without resewing the strap. I attempted to contact the manufacturer but was unable to send a message via the system.
