A few of our faves from gentlebands
the sphinx
Starting with the most classic, this chic black tungsten ring is lined with rose gold for that extra something special. It’s perfect for the guy who appreciates a timeless gold band but still wants something unique.
the maestro
This rugged combo of chiseled tungsten and wood is perfect for any man who lives for adventure. And, we should mention, that’s not just any wood, it’s made from recycled whiskey barrels–a special nod to his favorite drink, perhaps?
the lunar
For the man who dreams big and is always reaching for the stars, what about a meteorite ring? That’s right, you’d never guess it but this cool black ring is made of tungsten, Bello opal, and yep, meteorite!
the minos
Made famous in the Middle Ages, Damascus steel is known for its strength–just like your man 😉. Wrapped in the strongest steel and cushioned by a gentle rose gold lining, this unique ring is just as deep and complex as your love.
the impact
Crafted from meteorite, dinosaur bone, and tungsten, this ring symbolizes enduring love and the fragility of life all in one manly statement.
Still don’t know which ring will suit your man best? Here are some things to review together...
personal style
Is your man rocking a suit and tie on a daily basis? Or is he sporting a T-shirt that shows off his full sleeve of tattoos? His wedding band is something he will likely wear every day, so you’ll want to make sure it will complement his everyday style.
For men who lean more toward timeless and/or formal with their day-to-day style, neutral colors and classic materials like gold and tungsten are great options. For something a bit more adventurous, consider Damascus Steel, it has all of the timeless appeal of the more classic metals but its distinct pattern is a great conversation starter.
If your man wears his style on his sleeve (literally), then don’t be afraid to go bold with your ring choice. Dinosaur fossils, wood, and glowstone are all really cool options that will definitely catch a compliment or two anytime he steps out of the house.
interests
What we love most about Gentlebands is how their unique materials allow you to incorporate your man’s interests into his band. It’s giving, “I see you” from Avatar…you know? So whether he’s a Star Wars nerd, a Jurrasic Park junkie, an avid hunter, or a whiskey aficionado, there’s literally something for everyone!
your love story
We’re about to take a deep dive, so hold on…Think back to your first date. Maybe you went to a speakeasy and got to know each other over an Old Fashioned (or two)–whiskey barrel ring. Perhaps you binged the first Star Wars trilogy in the movie room at his apartment complex–meet the Galactic Legends collection. Maybe they proposed by serenading you on their guitar–guitar string ring. Get it?
lifestyle
Now that we’ve covered all of the sentimental bases, let’s get practical. Some materials are more durable than others. If he’s at a desk typing all day, feel free to go with some of the softer, more delicate materials like gold and antler. If he’s one of those guys who is always hitting the gym or working with his hands, consider a more scratch-resistant material like tungsten or meteorite.
Gentlebands prides themselves on offering a stress-free full-service experience. That’s why they offer all of their clients a free sizing service and each ring comes with a free 30-day no questions asked return policy as well as a lifetime warranty. And don’t forget to engrave your ring…it’s free!
