A Guide to Wristbands
By Peter Emerson
Wristbands serve a number of purposes. People can buy certain wristbands to show their dedication to a particular cause. Other wristbands are used as proof that someone has paid admission to an event such as a concert or a carnival. Some wristbands are used simply as accessories or jewelry. Wristbands can be made of many different materials. Paper, silicone, rubber, and leather are some of the most popular materials used.
Many are made of a sturdy type of paper that does not tear easily. These are often used at concerts or festivals as proof that someone has paid admission. Many paper wristbands are imprinted with designs like colored stripes or American Flags. Paper wristbands usually have one sticky end that is used to fasten the band around the person's wrist.
Other wristbands are made of silicone or rubber. Silicone or rubber wristbands come in several different colors and designs. The most popular colors are yellow, pink, red, and black. Silicone and rubber wristbands come in a solid ring that can be stretched to fit over a person's hand and worn on the wrist. People often wear these wristbands to voice their support for a certain cause or show that they have donated to a particular charity. One of the most popular wristbands of this type is the yellow "Livestrong" wristband. World-renowned bicycle racer and cancer survivor Lance Armstrong designed these wristbands. These bands are given to people who pay a dollar to his cancer charity and have become popular fashion accessories.
People also wear leather wristbands, which can come in many colors and are often elaborately designed. Leather wristbands are usually a flat piece of leather with fastening snaps on the end to hold it on the person's wrist.
Wristbands are gaining in popularity. They are versatile accessories that are worn in a number of situations.
