Been lots of people questioning and looking, I just found, new today, a frame on amazon for $35 with free shipping, so $19 less than the only other seller on Amazong right now.

There is another one if you search Fitbit Blaze Housing.  

 

There is one with the milanese loop attached already, pretty good deal to get the band and frame together already assembled for those who have had issues:

I rec'd my PINK frame today frome Vovotrade..excellent fit , it clicks in sevurely on both sides.  the price was $11.99 for frame only--i got the "moko" colorful mesh band--it is slightly irridescent--pink, blue, green purple, nice ladie's dressy choice, the pink is not gaudy--it is a subtle matte that would work with other colors.

no pins with the frame, but 4 with the band.

i wore it out today to friend's for dinner--not that it matters --but most people think it is Applewatch.

If you look on Amazon for Austrake you can see that they now have a frame available in black and white, that protects the edges of the Blaze..i don't like it for myself, but it does protect the watch a lot more. There are only 2 reviews, both positive for wearing as a rugged look.

Just purchased the Austrake frame. Exactly what should of been available from the beginning from FitBit for users that participate in activities that can damage the tracker. Mine has chips all along the exposed top and bottom edges.

My new Black Frame and Band Arrived today from Amazon. Overall they look and feel just like the Factory original. Here is a picture.

Just found this and ordered it off amazon. Looks like it will protect top and sides, is made of plastic, so not sure how it will hold up. It was only $9 U.S. worth a try. The frame is listed with their straps.

 

UPDATE: This frame is great.  It fits Blaze perfectly and protects the top and sides.  I wear this when working out and activities where I could possibly damage the Blaze.  I bought extra straps; so very easy to pop from one frame to another.

I purchased the same one three or four weeks ago. It's an awesome frame and protects the Blaze very well. Unfortunately I don't use my Blaze anymore and it's just sitting in a drawer.

If fitbit ever releases a software update that fixes its current problems since the last update in April, I'll dig it back out.

I had that same "rugged" frame and absolutely loved it, for all of 5 days. Then the plastic broke where the little band pins go in. Funny thing is I wasn't even doing anything, just sitting at my desk and it fell off. Guess that's what you get for $10.
Would love to see something like this one, but made a little better. 

I also have the black SS frame and black link band pictured earlier in this thread. LOVE THEM.

I never had an issue with the plastic frame. Held up well until the day I sold it along with all my other Blaze accessories. At one time I thought mine broke in the same spot, but it turned out I didnt fully seat the pin into place.

this is really nice--$15.99 and Prime  (all things come from Lexington Kentucky).

it comes in Black, Stainless and Rose Gold.  i got the rose, it ibrushed.  it covers thattop/bottom sharp edge of the Blaze--what a shame that the original was not this one.

this is the band i got, for $10.00 in the rose pink---i think it would also look good in the black with that black frame--but for summer i love this look--

Hindsight always seems to have wisdom.. Personally I like the Fitbit version better, it's unique.

i wouldn't expect you to say anything except fitbit is superior. Smiley Happy

 

i like the look of the watch (ADVERTISED AS A SMART WATCH--just look at the ads)  but the exposed top and bottom edges are not practical--just read how many people have chipped it or nicked it and that is only here on this forum--(now it is not a Rolex of course but you put out $200.  for something to wear every day and track your daily stats--and you hit your wrist on the car, door handle, seat belt , lawn mower  or in my case the top of the fridge metal shelf) and it chips--it will make you "peeved off"..

If fitbit designed a case such as this to protect the product it would last longer--  it is still unique.

to each their own--and i am glad that this is available...

 

now about those *updates*....

The "updates" were never promised, so stop waiting for them.  IF they get to them it would be a nice addition, but the newest thing is always the focus.  I know of about a dozen people with the Blaze and none have chipped or had any problems with the casing have 2 open edges. In fact, lots of youtube reviews from people who review lots of fitness watches list how "striking" looking the blaze is and that the look makes it stand out.  That frame is hideous looking, the Amazone one you posted, it gets rid of all the character of the Blaze.  You can't have your cake and eat it too:.....and you can't make a product that 100% of people will like.

Why should it not work, the screen protecter goes on the watch, not the frame
