    Thanks to those who replied, yes they're for working out, specifically my husband is getting into ninja training and doesn't want to get hurt or damage his ring.

    Very common with the military as well. No fear of losing or getting a ring snagged on gear and causing an injury.

    I have a Bondwell brand, but there are several 5* rated brands out there.

    My husband and I both have Thunderfit that I ordered from Amazon. I prefer the thin rings and the brighter colors. He prefers the thicker ones and has several different colors as well. We both kept forgetting to put our bands back on after lifting and jiu jitsu. These did the trick. I'd suggest ordering a half size smaller than you wear bc they do stretch a little.

    That's the brand I was learning toward! Thanks!

    This has been discussed before on here and if still makes no sense to me. I just take mine off.

    Every piece of jewelery I've taken off at the gym, I've lost. Not at the gym really, but just in the transition of it all.

    I bought cheap ones off Amazon for both me and my husband. Wearing my wedding band while lifting was getting uncomfortable. I like to wear my ring though. I didn't want to worry about damaging it.

    Then I lost weight, now my wedding ring will need resizing. I now wear the silicone band in front of my wedding ring when I wear it, because it is so loose it wriggles. I wear the grey one for that.

    For the same price, DH got 3 or 4 in two shades of grey, black and white. I paid for 5, got 7 - including bright pink, purple, green, and the same four neutral shades DH got. Same company, same price.

    I believe they are honorgear brand, or something.

    I have a few groovelife rings. Hardly notice it’s there and they have a lifetime warranty that covers basically anything

    So I don’t have any advice for the OPs question since I don’t use them, but I just wanted to support NEVER wearing metal rings when you are lifting weights. All you need to see is one image of a “degloved” hand or finger torsion to understand why metal rings and lifting don’t mix. If you are worried about losing your rings, I keep mine attached to a caribiner clip that is attached to my keys while I workout. I can’t leave without my keys so I never risk leaving my ring behind either.

    Does anyone have a favorite brand they recommend? My brother uses qalo, but I've seen several on Amazon for a lot less $$. Is there really a difference?

    Also my husband would like other color options besides 3 shades of gray that the men's rings tend to offer, any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    I've had Qalo and I recently bought a cheap set from Walmart. I cannot tell the difference. The Walmart set was less than $5 and they had a ton of different colors.

    What’s the difference between taking off your wedding band and putting on a silicon ring vs taking it off and not putting something else on? Why is one more prone to loss?
    (Obviously you can do whatever you want, just curios.)

    Some people say wearing s fake ring makes them feel more loyal to spouse or prevents people from flirting with them at the gym. SMH

    I take it off at home and put it someplace safe...vs taking it off at the gym.
