The 1BandID is a customized identification band that can be worn on your watch or your shoes. The band can hold up to 6 lines of 20 characters per line. Most people include their "in case of emergency" contacts and any allergies they might have, but there is also room for a motivational message.
The great thing about the 1BandID is that it wraps right around your current watch band and attaches securely using Velcro. It's that simple. You don't have to do anything to your gear to use it.
It doesn't interfere with wearing my watch the same way I always have. Other than the super cool purple standing out against the black, it's hard to notice it's even there. This ID will not be coming off my watch anytime soon.
Joe, the brains behind 1BandID, is an athlete who used to forget to wear his separate ID bracelet or tags. So, he decided to simplify safety by designing a band that could securely attach to the gear that athletes already wear every time they head out the door.

I do actually have a watch id, but I find the Velcro scratchy. Hope to improve it so I'm not irritated.
ReplyDeleteI have a 1BandID and love it but I need to update it with new info!
ReplyDeleteI think this is so important to have! Safety first :)
ReplyDeleteI don't. I really need to get one!
ReplyDeleteI don't carry any kind of ID with me on my runs. I know I should! I need one! :)
ReplyDeleteI followed the facebook pages under my Blog's page (https://www.facebook.com/JaOnTheRun) :)
ReplyDeletethank you for sharing. This looks like an awesome item. All of your important contact info in case of an emergency without having to strap on another added item on the wrist like I currently do.
ReplyDeleteThat's one of the brilliant little "why didn't I think of that!" Ideas.
ReplyDeleteAwesome. I use a different kind of ID. This is my first time to see this kind.
ReplyDeleteI have heard a lot about these brackets and want to give them a try!!
ReplyDeleteI've never even heard of this, but it sounds awesome! I don't wear any kind of id!
ReplyDeleteI wear a RoadID but I love the idea of not having to wear something on my wrist in addition to my Garmin. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteI usually have my drivers license in a pocket, but sometimes (eek) I've run out of the house without it :(
ReplyDeleteThis is pretty cool! I have a Road ID and love it, but definitely lose track of it and find myself hunting around before my run. I see the benefit of just strapping something to your watch!
ReplyDeleteon my phone i have a phone number to get my information on the home screen. i love how you made it into the band of the watch.
ReplyDeleteCurrently, I do not carry any id but I know that I should.
ReplyDeleteThis is a really cool idea. It definitely would help with the "Oh. I forgot to put that on too."
ReplyDeletenone.. I really need one
ReplyDeleteI usually don't carry any ID, I really need to.
ReplyDeleteRight now I don't carry any ID... and sometimes I run alone at 5 in the morning. I should stop that.
ReplyDeleteI don't carry any id. i'm awful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great alternative product to road id. I don't carry id when I run, and I usually run alone. Nothing to say though that they ship to Australia.
ReplyDeleteI don't run with an ID now, but I know I should!
ReplyDeleteI don't run with one either, but like you I always wonder what would happen if something happened... Truthfully, it's a WAY smart idea to wear one of these!
ReplyDeleteim bad i just carry my phone...new to your blog love it!
ReplyDeleteI do not carry one
ReplyDeleteHi. I'm sorry to hear you haven't had a good experience with a competitive product. I originally designed 1BandID with a nylon coating to keep it smooth next to the skin. Good luck in the drawing. I'm sure you will have a beter experience with 1BandID.
ReplyDeleteHi Matilda. We ship all over the world and have a bunch of happy customers in your neck of the woods. Good luck in the drawing.
ReplyDeleteThanks a ton for the review Amy and thanks to everyone who shared a comments, post, like and/or tweet. Good luck in the drawing. I can't wait to share my 1BandID with you.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love that you love it!!
ReplyDeleteyour running. stop being a pussy. If somthing sketchy happens run faster, if you feel like your about to pass out stop running. To be honest even carrying an ID card is just another way for police to screw you for running next to a crosswalk. stay nameless.
