Choosing the right width for Mens Wedding Rings
Choosing the Perfect Wedding Band Width: A Guide for Men
Picking out a wedding band can be a bit overwhelming, especially if you're not used to wearing rings. But fear not! We’re here to help simplify the process and ensure you find a band that’s not only stylish but also comfortable.
When it comes to widths, 6mm bands are the gold standard for most men. Why? They strike the perfect balance, fitting a wide range of finger sizes and shapes comfortably. If you’re new to rings, this is a fantastic choice to start with.
On the other hand, if you have long fingers or larger hands, you might want to consider a 7mm width. This size offers a bolder look while still being comfortable for everyday wear.
Now, if you're leaning toward something more unique, widths narrower than 6mm can be ideal. Some guys prefer these for various reasons: they might want a sleeker band, find wider rings uncomfortable, have slender fingers, or simply be drawn to a specific design that comes in a narrower width.
And for those wishing to make a statement, 8mm or wider bands are available, too! These are often chosen for intricate designs or when going for a distinctive wide-band look.
Essential Tips for Choosing Your Wedding Band
1. Try Before You Buy: Always test out a sample ring in your desired width to ensure it feels right on your finger. Comfort is key.
2. Get Measured Accurately: Don’t skip the important step of having your finger size measured by a local jeweller. Please note the width of your intended ring, as wider bands often require a larger size for a perfect fit. If you're considering wider rings, ask the jeweller if they have wide ring measuring tools.
3. Focus on Comfort: At the end of the day, don’t stress too much about the perfect width. What’s most important is that the band feels good in your hand. Spend more time exploring designs that reflect your personal style!
When browsing for men’s wedding rings on the Gillett’s Jewellers site, you can easily filter by width! Simply click on the Width tab, select your preferred size, and browse all the available ring styles in that width.
