Garmin Forerunner Bands

Showing 1–24 of 518 results

StrapsCo carries replacement bands for the Garmin Forerunner 165, 255, 265, 265S, 570, 745, 935, 945, 955, 965, and 970 lineup, part of the complete Garmin watch bands catalog.

Band size depends on the model. The Forerunner 165 takes a 20mm quick-release band. The 255 and 265 take 22mm quick-release bands, and the 265S takes 18mm. The 570 takes 20mm on the 42mm case and 22mm on the 47mm case. The 745, 935, 945, 955, 965 and 970 take QuickFit 22 bands.

To remove the 935’s original band, unscrew the pins with two screwdrivers. Put the pins back in the watch, then press your QuickFit 22 band onto them.

StrapsCo carries silicone, DuraFlex FKM rubber, nylon, leather, and metal Garmin Forerunner bands.

Our Forerunner bands come in a range of lengths, so you get a snug fit on a small or large wrist, on runs and all day.

Why StrapsCo Works Well for Garmin Forerunner Owners

Garmin Forerunner watches handle daily sweat, UV exposure, sunscreen, trail dust, and repetitive movement during running and training sessions.

Band comfort matters during long runs and daily wear, especially around the keeper loop and high-friction areas.

DuraFlex FKM rubber works especially well for Garmin Forerunner models because it resists the lint, sweat residue, dust, and UV exposure that quickly make standard silicone bands start looking worn.

FKM is a denser fluoroelastomer built for heat, chemicals, oils, sweat, and UV exposure, which is why it costs more than standard silicone.

Standard silicone bands often begin attracting lint and developing a tacky feel after months of regular outdoor training. DuraFlex FKM stays cleaner between runs and handles long-term sweat exposure better during daily wear.

Swaps are fast, whether your watch uses quick-release spring bars or a QuickFit latch. Change bands for a run, for work or for the weekend.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Every Garmin Forerunner has a replaceable band, but how it attaches depends on the model. Most recent Forerunners use standard quick-release or Garmin QuickFit connectors that swap without tools. Older models, like the 235 and 735XT, use model-specific bands held on with small screws, so you’ll need a screwdriver. Band sizes and connectors vary, so confirm your exact Forerunner model before ordering.
No. Garmin Forerunner bands are not fully interchangeable across the lineup. Width and connector both change by model, so a band for one Forerunner won't always fit another. Check the size list at the top of this page before you order. Connector style matters just as much as band width.
The Garmin Forerunner 165 uses a 20mm quick-release band. That’s narrower than the 22mm bands on larger Forerunners like the 265 and 965, so a 22mm band won’t fit between the 165’s lugs. Check that a replacement band is 20mm before ordering.
Standard silicone Garmin bands usually last between 12 and 24 months with regular wear before cracking, discoloration, or surface wear starts appearing. DuraFlex FKM rubber typically lasts longer under the same conditions because it resists UV exposure, sweat buildup, sunscreen exposure, and debris accumulation better than standard silicone. Band lifespan also depends on training frequency, sun exposure, swimming, saltwater exposure, and how often the watch is worn.
Yes, as long as it’s a QuickFit 22 band. The 935, 945 and 955 all take QuickFit 22, so those bands move freely between them. The 935’s original Garmin band screws onto the watch, so swap it for a QuickFit 22 band first. After that, the same band will fit your 945 or 955.
Nylon and DuraFlex FKM rubber are the strongest overall materials for running and heavy sweat. Nylon works especially well for daily runners because nylon breathes better during long runs and dries quickly after sweat-heavy workouts. DuraFlex FKM rubber handles sweat, UV exposure, dust, lint, sunscreen, and repeated outdoor wear better than standard silicone. Standard silicone bands often start looking worn after months of regular training, especially in darker colors. Silicone feels softer immediately out of the box, which some runners prefer initially, but DuraFlex FKM usually holds up better during long-term daily training.
