Horween Leather
We chose Horween Leather for these bands as it offers an unparalleled blend of quality, consistency, responsiveness, and innovation. As the band comes into contact with elements around you, the leather will develop a patina, or a dark lustrous sheen, making your band unlike any other.

Stitching and Thread
Each Traditional Band is lined by a soft leather backing and held together by durable linen thread. This pre-stretched and beeswaxed thread helps maintain lasting integrity and prevents the leather from stretching and morphing through months of wear.

Reviews
Really great
It’s really good quality and I love the feel
Timeless Band, Great Customer Service
Before getting into the actual band review, I just want to take a moment and appreciate Nomad’s customer service which is top-notch and addressed an issue with my order with humility and grace, which is increasingly rare in this world. The Traditional Band is for those that want their watch to have a more noticeable presence on their wrist. It is thicker than most other leather bands on the market (a good thing!). It’s comfortable and stylish, hearkening back to when timepieces were analog and more permanent than the digital watches we have today. In other words, in a day and age where “modern” often means cold and synthetic, the Traditional Band and Nomad reminds us that “new” isn’t always better.
Brown leather band
Very nice leather quality. The hardware components look very sturdy. Overall, happy with purchase, but for one complaint, it would be perfect if the band was a little longer for larger wrists.
