Do these bands fit the Grit X, X Pro, X2 and X2 Pro?

Yes. All four generations use the same 22mm quick-release band, so any style on this page fits any of them. Polar has kept this width consistent across the Grit X line since the original launched in 2020.

Do these bands fit the Polar Ignite or Pacer?

No. The Ignite and standard Pacer use a narrower 20mm band, a different width from the Grit X's 22mm, so the two sizes are not interchangeable.

How do I change the band on my Grit X?

Push the small lever on the spring bar behind the band to release it, then press the new band's spring bar into the lugs until it clicks. It takes under a minute with no tools.

What width band does the Grit X use?

22mm, across all four generations — Grit X, Grit X Pro, Grit X2 and Grit X2 Pro all share the same width.

Which band is best for outdoor use?

The Vornis silicone sport band and Rovan magnetic loop are the practical choices for hiking and trail use, since both handle dirt and sweat well and rinse clean. Keeping a dressier second band on hand also means you're not stuck wearing trail gear once you're back in town.

Can I wear these bands while hiking in wet weather?

Silicone and nylon bands are fine in wet conditions — rinse and dry them afterward. Wipe magnetic milanese and magnetic loop bands dry instead of soaking them. Give the clasp on magnetic styles an occasional dry wipe too, since grit can work its way into the mesh on the trail.
