Most outfits are one detail away from looking finished. For a lot of men that detail is a bracelet: a strip of leather, a few natural stones or a polished steel link that makes a plain T-shirt or a navy suit look deliberate.
The quickest way to upgrade an outfit with a bracelet is to match its material to the occasion: beads and leather for weekends, steel links and sterling silver for work and evenings. Pick one that fits with about a finger's width of room, and wear it on the wrist without your watch or beside it. Below are 25 bracelets we have in stock right now, grouped by style, with current prices in Australian dollars.

What makes a bracelet upgrade an outfit?
Three things: contrast, proportion and fit. A bracelet works when it adds something the outfit is missing, such as warm tiger eye against a grey knit, or bright steel against a dark cuff. Keep the width in proportion to your wrist and watch (slim 3-6mm pieces for smaller wrists or office wear, 8-12mm for bigger wrists and weekends). And make sure it fits: too tight looks pinched, too loose slides over your hand. Our bracelet size guide shows how to measure in a minute.
Which beaded and natural stone bracelets look best?

Is a sterling silver bracelet worth the extra?

Should I wear a cuff or a chain?

People also ask
What bracelet should a man wear every day?
A comfortable, low-maintenance one: stainless steel links, braided leather or a simple bead bracelet. Slimmer pieces like the 3mm braided cable cord bracelet are easy to forget you are wearing.
Can men wear a bracelet with a suit?
Yes. Choose something slim and polished, such as a steel link, a sterling silver tennis bracelet or flat matte onyx beads, so it sits neatly under the shirt cuff.
How many bracelets should a man wear?
One is always safe. Two to three work well when you mix textures, such as a bead, a leather and a metal piece, and keep one wrist lighter if you wear a watch.
What size bracelet do I need?
Measure your wrist snugly and add about 1.5-2cm for a comfortable fit. Many of the pieces above come in several lengths or have adjustable closures.
Can I return a bracelet if it doesn't fit?
Yes, change-of-mind returns are accepted within 14 days of receiving the order, subject to our returns policy.
