My band is cracking and I'm not about to pay $30 for a genuine replacement so I was wondering if anyone had third party brands they recommend? There's quite a few on Amazon but while they tend to have around 5 star ratings the actual reviews are mixed.

Well the band broke so I went ahead and ordered a 3 pack from Amazon for $8. From the pics they look identical to the original band and now I'll be able to change the color of the band.

 

The funny thing is the band snapped in half and it wasn't where I had noticed it cracking but on the other half of the band.

I received the bands today. They look almost identical to the original blue band but they are slightly thinner and stiffer than the original. There are 3 colors which are slightly off from the pics on Amazon but close enough and fit the description of "black, navy blue, and blue gray".

 

Most importantly they clicked right onto the tracker with no problem. 

 

The brand I purchased from Amazon is Wepro and it was less than $8 with tax for 3 bands. Bargain as long as they hold up reasonably well.

Hi there - I've had both Charge 3 and now Charge 4 fitbits and like you, didn't want to pay such a high price for new bands.  I took a chance and ordered replacement (and fancy) bands from Amazon, and they totally fit, work very well and are considerably less expensive!  Go for it.
