Best Silicone Rings For Men
1. Black Fire – Silicone Ring
by Halo
One of the great things about silicone wedding bands is they tend to come in a range of colors. This style comes in many different shades but we particularly like this stunning black and gold option. It’s nice to have options, however, because you never know if you’re gonna want a matching situation where black just won’t do.
2. Marbled Silicone Ring
by Halo
The detailing in this ring is UNREAL. The marble texture and perfectly blended colors create an illusion that at first glance makes it look like the colors are actively moving through the ring. This is a great pick if you are looking for a splash of color without becoming the center of attention. Understated yet totally impressive, colorful yet not garish, and eye-catching yet not attention seeking – what’s not to love?
3. Hammered Texture Silicone Ring
by Qalo
It’s not often you see a silicone band with some originality beyond its color. We like the look of this band with a hammered texture.
4. Grooved Black – Silicone Ring
by UniiDesign
Here’s another silicone ring with a different twist to it. It’s designed a lot like some of the popular metal bands we’ve seen, just safer.
5. Midnight Kiss Ring
by Halo
We love the starry galaxy pattern on this dark navy ring. Not only comfortable and flexible, but uber stylish too!
6. Floral Silicone Ring
by Halo
Fun, flirty, and perfect for summer, this is a great pick for anyone who is not afraid of a bold pattern and eye catching color. We think it is a really trendy choice for all of those fashion forward men out there! We can’t think of a better way to add a splash of color to a monochrome outfit and or top off an already head turning look!
7. Beveled Massaging Comfort Fit Silicone Ring
by BULZiRings
The nubbies on the inside give your ring finger a little massage (or that’s what we’ve heard from a few men who’ve worn it). Plus it’s also a great design to facilitate air-flow, which is a must when wearing silicone.
8. Wood Grain Silicone Ring
This silicone band was molded with a subtle wood grain pattern. Again, a pretty cool departure from your standard silicone band. Comes in three manly colors.
9. Piece Silicone Band Set
We like that these come in a set, and they’re each a little different. Freedom of choice is a good thing.
10. Black And Grey Lined His And Hers Set
by knotheory
More and more silicone bands are available in matching his and hers sets, and we have to say, they look pretty snappy. For those couples who do their sportsing stuff together, the thin grey band on these make for a cool-looking set of rings.
11. Personalized Men’s Silicone Ring
Back to basics, only you can have this one personalized with the message of your choice, either on the inside, outside, or both.
12. Birthstone Color Silicone Wedding Band
by Enso Rings
Last but not least in our men’s ring roundup is the ever popular Enso ring. It comes in 14 different colors, one for each birthstone month plus a couple bonus shades.
Go check it out and find your perfect fit.
13. Reversible Silicone Wedding Band
by Qalo
Business on one side, party on the other, this reversible ring Qalo will fit any occasion. Now he really won’t have an excuse to take it off!
14. Metallic Score Silicone Wedding Band
by Qalo
This is the perfect pick for the man who wants the comfort and durability of a silicone ring but the look of something more traditional. Available in gold, silver and even copper, this will give him the best of both worlds!
Why Choose A Silicone Wedding Ring?
If we haven’t made it clear yet, the reasons for choosing a silicone wedding ring are pretty compelling. Here are some we’ve heard straight from a few guys who swear by them:
Stylish
We have to agree on this front – some silicone bands are very stylin’. Plus, there’s something tough about a guy who wears a tiny tire around his finger to symbolize his love. Practical and masculine – nice.
Inexpensive
It’s nice to be able to easily replace your metal wedding band when sporting or, erm, ‘misplacing’ your original. And silicone is cheap enough that you can keep an entire lifetime’s worth of backups. If you are a doctor or nurse, you might choose a medical grade silicone for your ring, which can be a bit more expensive. Don’t worry, it still won’t break the bank!
A traditional metal wedding band is definitely special and very romantic, but there’s something about the persistence of a silicone ring in the face of destruction that’s kind of cool, and very committed.
It gets wrecked? That’s ok, ‘cause guess what? Here’s another one right in your dresser drawer. Boom. Still showin’ the world you’re completely taken without missing a beat.
A less expensive wedding band is also a great idea if you’re a traveler. No worries about it being lost or stolen. Although who wants to steal a rubber ring that has no meaning to anyone but you? Whatever. If you can imagine it happening, someone’s probably done it, so be assured you’ve got backups for any situation that comes your way.
Safe
Silicone wedding bands are recommended for wear in workplaces that your standard metal ring may not be: warehouses, manufacturing and industrial settings, mechanical jobs, welding, nursing, the medical field – the list goes on and on.
The ring is flexible enough to break under 40 pounds of pressure, so if it gets caught on something it’ll break well before it breaks your finger. This is why you’ll see a lot of firefighters and police officers wearing them too.
Silicone is non-conductive and hypoallergenic, but keep in mind, it needs to breathe. Take your ring off every day or two and wash it with soap and water, then let it dry before putting it back on.
Great For People With Active Lifestyles
We’ve mentioned sports and how silicone rings are much more comfortable at the gym or rock climbing, or whatever you like to do. In fact, lots of professional athletes wear silicone wedding bands for that very reason.
But there are other kinds of active lifestyles besides sports and manual labor that are best handled with a softer ring. This includes what is perhaps the most difficult job of all: parenting.
You’d be shocked at the amount of hassle your metal ring gets when dealing with a wiggling toddler throwing a tantrum in the middle of the grocery store. (Or if you’ve already had a toddler, you might not be surprised at all.)
Whether you’re having tickle fights, or just trying to keep things under control, a wedding band can get caught or damaged on all sorts of things in the process. Wear what you’ve got, but if what you’ve got is metal, keep a silicone back-up handy (ha! puns…) just in case.
Silicone Thoughts
What you put on your finger to represent your devotion to the one you love is deeply personal. But that doesn’t mean it has to be overthought.
We love a shiny traditional wedding band around here, really we do. Those precious metal bands are romantic, beautiful, and masculine. You know, all those things a girl envisions (with some noted exceptions) when she’s a little girl thinking about fairytale weddings, the perfect ring, and wifey things. No kidding.
But things change as we get older, and sometimes our idea of the perfect symbol of commitment does too. Sometimes shiny isn’t as important as reliable.
Whether you choose silicone, yellow gold, sterling silver, chromium, or anything else on the spectrum, rest assured it’ll represent the unique love you have for her.
And that’s perfect just as it is.
