Essential Fitbit accessories to personalize your activity tracker

Give your Fitbit a unique look with these stylish upgrades

So you’ve got a Fitbit but you’re a versatile individual who appreciates the diversity of life. You like to keep fit, but you also like to let your hair down and go out with friends, maybe even dress up one in a while for a fancy night out. Hey, it’s your life, we’re not going to live it for you.

Fitbit knows this. It was, after all, one of its big talking points when it debuted the Versa. However, while Fitbit has worked on official designer collaborations to keep your wrist looking fresh, there are many third parties creating accessories, too.

Top Fitbit accessories for your tracker

The original Fitbit Flex was one of the first trackers to receive a bevy of personalization options, but that has since become a standard feature when it comes to its other devices, like the Blaze, Alta HR, Charge 2, Flex 2, Ionic and – now – the new Fitbit Versa.

We’ve collected together some of the top accessories, straps and jewelry to inject a bit more pizazz into your Fitbit life. Peruse our collection at your leisure.

Fitbit Ionic accessories

Fitbit Ionic Sport Band

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

The standard Ionic band is well and good, but Fitbit itself looks at the Ionic as its performance smartwatch. So why not outfit it with a band far better suited for the athletic lifestyle? The Sport Band has a secure double buckle and is perforated so that it’s breathable when you’re extra sweaty. It comes in a subdued black and gray or a more vibrant blue and electric green.

Fitbit Flyer

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

The Ionic is Fitbit’s first big step into the world of music. Not only can you store 300 songs, but there’s Pandora and Deezer support for syncing over your music should you be one of those streaming service types. Fitbit also made its own pair of wireless headphones, and they’re specifically created so they’ll work with the Ionic when you want some music but don’t want to drag around your phone.

Fitbit Blaze accessories

Fitbit Blaze 22-karat gold edition

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

If you like the look of the 22-karat, gold-plated stainless steel Blaze, you can buy the frame as an accessory for your existing tracker. Choose from either a pink or a black band to complement the “satin finished” fancy frame or go for the silver (colored) stainless steel look instead.

Bayite Floral Band

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

It’s spring time, soon to be summer. You’re going on vacation – somewhere tropical, obviously – so maybe try on Bayite’s floral band, which puts a lovely print right on top of a nice, white silicone band. Beach not included.

From $9.99, Amazon

Awinner replacement USB charger

best fitbit accessories

More of an essential than adding some personality to the Blaze, it’s always nice to have a spare charger to throw in your bag – especially if you travel a lot. This third-party charger works in exactly the same way as the official one. So you still need to pop out the Blaze screen from the frame and trap it inside the small cradle. It might not be as exciting as a stylish strap, but it could prevent you staring down at your wrist and seeing that red battery status bar.

$4.77, Amazon

Fitbit Versa accessories

Fitbit Versa Horween Leather

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

If you’re looking to give yourself just a touch of sophistication, Fitbit’s new leather bands for the Versa should be on your ledger. They’re made from high-quality Horween leather and come in four colors: lavender, dark brown, midnight blue and a light brown.

$49.95, fitbit.com

Fitbit Versa Metal Mesh

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

If you want something even more fancy, perhaps showcasing that you’re on the bleeding edge of fashion trends, consider the new metal mesh band. It’s a third of Fitbit’s new metal collection for the Versa, and for our money it’s the best looking. There’s something about metal mesh that’s so refined that it’ll make you feel far more fancy than you actually are. Available in both silver and black stainless steel.

$79.95, fitbit.com

Fitbit Charge 2 accessories – Leather band

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

There’s not a whole lot of Charge 2 accessories out there compared to the fashion-forward trackers, but you can pick up the genuine leather band from Fitbit in indigo, blush pink or brown. Switch into this one when you’ve finished your workout, there’s no point getting it sweaty or dirty.

Fitbit Alta & Alta HR accessories

Public School Axis

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

Fitbit has a couple collaborations with fashion houses, and one of them is Public School. That partnership has born out some left-field creations, including Axis, the hand-polished, stainless steel watch frame that holds the Alta and Alta HR in the middle like some kind of future jewelry. Also, not cheap.

$295, fitbit.com

Public School Type III Paracord bracelet

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

We’re also a fan of this braided nylon paracord bracelet for the Alta and Alta HR, again from Public School. It only comes in black, but the military styling will give your tracker a hard edge without playing up the fact you’ve got a gadget on your wrist. One caveat for Alta HR owners: It might not give you a snug enough fit for the heart rate sensor to accurately detect your heart rate.

Tory Burch Resin Inlay

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

Tory Burch is the biggest fashion name associated with Fitbit, and its Resin Inlay is a good way of showing that off. It’s made with brass and resin and it almost doesn’t look like a Fitbit at all. It legit looks like a piece of jewelry you may have picked up. Fun bonus: If you’re in the US, you can get a special edition black and 22K gold Alta for $149.95.

$198, fitbit.com

Fitbit Flex & Flex 2 accessories

Fitbit Pendant

Essential Fitbit accessories to personalise your activity tracker

Taking cues from Tory Burch, this pendant accessory for the Flex 2 is available in silver or 22-karat gold plated stainless steel. Bear in mind that auto sleep tracking and Smart Track features won’t work when your Flex 2 is in the pendant necklace.

$79.95, fitbit.com

Griffin Uptown band

Staying on the stylish front, Griffin’s Uptown band is a double-wrap leather band to hide away the Fitbit Flex’s little sensor. There’s cutout to let you view the display and it’s available in brown or black shades with adjustable metal snaps to keep it in place.

$17.99, griffin.com | Amazon

Creek Reflections leather bracelet

There are ways for guys to conceal their tracking too. Step forward the leather wristband that’s handmade and keeps the Fitbit Flex’s sensor held in place inside a small silver box. You can pick out the stone that sits in front of the tracker and it’s transparent so you can still see the illuminating lights. It’s tracking with absolutely no ugly plastic in sight.

Griffin Ribbon wristbands

best fitbit accessories

If the thought of a plastic wristband immediately makes your skin crawl, then this softer option from Griffin might be more up your street. They’re in the style of ribbons and are designed to look like high-end hair ties. They come in a huge range of colors and allow you to secure your Fitbit Flex or your Fitbit One into a secure, spandex pocket at the back.

Fitbit accessories for Zip and One

Zipband accessory wristband

If you have a Fitbit Zip and want to wear it on your wrist instead of on your belt, shoe, bra or in your pocket, then head on over to WoCase for some colourful wristband options.

$12.99, wocase.com | Amazon

Oneband Accessory Wristband

While we’re at it, if you want the Fitbit One on your wrist too, the folks at Wocase have you covered too.

Afunta Charging Cables for Fitbit

Fitbit does sell charging cables on its website, but you can pick up some unofficial versions for the Flex, the Charge and the Charge HR on Amazon. Many come in twin packs, which is ideal for keeping one at home and one at work. There are many different brands selling them on Amazon, and is an affordable solution to the problem of remembering to carry that charging cable everywhere you go.
