Which should you choose?

I frequently recommend Clockwork Synergy bands to my friends and family; I find the quality to be excellent and the prices reasonable. They offer a wide variety of bands, such as this repeating flag design. But if you prefer something simpler, you pick from over a dozen tasteful variations on the red, white, and blue striped band instead.

If you just want something quite inexpensive to wear on those patriotic holidays, the TinaWood band is a fun option. It's a little bit kitschy, but it will go with your 4th of July outfit for sure.

However you celebrate America's Independence Day, celebrate safely and responsibly. Happy Fourth of July!
