Key features & specs

How it compares

Unlike traditional metal bangles or leather bands, the Pura Vida Bracelets Solidarity Bracelet uses synthetic wax-coated cord, making it entirely vegan and resistant to mold or fraying. When compared to luxury silk bracelets or standard cotton string jewelry, Pura Vida Bracelets offers superior longevity in wet conditions. It serves as a more ethical alternative to mass-produced plastic fashion jewelry found in fast-fashion retail chains.

What to know before buying

1. The wax coating may feel stiff or slightly sticky upon arrival but softens significantly after a few days of wear.
2. Adjust the size by pulling the loose ends of the cords through the slipknot for a custom fit on any wrist size.
3. You can wear this bracelet 24/7, including in the ocean or shower, without worrying about color fading.
4. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals or perfumes to ensure the iron-coated copper charm maintains its finish.
