Good replacement bands available?

Hey guys,

I've owned my Moto 360 since it released and I noticed a problem with the leather band included with the watch.

I used a Pebble metal band for while on the watch but when the back started cracking I got it replaced and tossed that band in fear it would happen again. So I've been using the leather band for probably 6+ months.

The problem here is that after awhile the leather band stinks. It smells like BO since I'm assuming my sweat is being absorbed into the leather. Every time I lift my arm where my wrist is near my nose I can smell it.

I was hoping to find a replacement band in the lines of a sport band that is made from a rubber material but I cannot seem to find anything. Anyone have any suggestions on where I could get a good sport band for this thing? I do like the Moto 360's official metal links band but I'm not paying $80 for that.

Thanks!

Try this one.
BUILT TO TYLT
 
Yeah I saw the TYLT one before but I was hoping to just walk into a store and buy one. Amazon is sold out of these bands and if I order one from Motorola or directly through TYLT I won't get it for a couple of weeks. Anybody know if any B&M retailers sell these or something similar?
 
This one looks pretty good. Thinking of picking this one up.
I tried posting a link but apparently I don't have enough posts to do that.
Search on Amazon for this:

GOOQ Steel Stainless Bracelet Metal Watchband Fit for Moto 360 Smartwatch Motorola Moto 360 Watch Band with Stainless Spring Bar Tool and Screen Protector for Moto 360 Wristband (Silver Stainless Steel)


(Yes, I know it's the longest title ever)
 
Anyone using the TYLT band? I would like to replace the leather one with it for the outdoor stuff and biking.
 
I had issues with my 360 cracking on the back due to the stiffness of the leather band. Warrantied twice because of it. Bought a metal band from Moto, no cracks. Love the band.

I've been using a TYLT on my 360 for a couple of months because the stock leather was cracking and irritating my wrist. It's a solid band. It's probably ever so slightly over priced but I don't regret the purchase. I need to send my 360 in for a cracked back and I may swap out for the Navy or Black band when I get it back. But I do like the Olive.

I've had it for 2 weeks now and its totally worth it. Looks and feels great and don't have to worry a pivot getting damaged in anyway like the leather. Tylt has a new site now where they are offering it with free shipping and they have all colors in stock.
