All hands on deck: 4 wrap bracelets for men in sight!

Ever since Johnny Depp stumbled across the deck of the Pearl and into our hearts in “Pirates of the Caribbean”, wrap bracelets for men have made repeat appearances in the world of fashion. Braided or laced, these leather bracelets have decorated the wrists of big names like David Beckham and Robert de Niro. Let Stylight show you which four types can pull this accessory off – and how!

1. Captain of the ship: The alpha male

Bracelets can symbolize power, friendship, status or even protection. Men who consider themselves strong and dominant should opt for wider wrap bracelets made of dark brown or black leather. Adding some gold or silver (clasps, appliqués, charms) into the mix shows the world you have nothing to hide.
No-Go: Alpha males should avoid wearing more than one large piece of jewelry at a time; let’s leave that to P. Diddy.

2. The sailor: The team player

A sailor is a fair, well-natured kind of guy. Never in need of too much attention, he tends to look best in wrap bracelets for men with thin, braided designs. They can be made of leather or other simple materials, such as wooden beads. Earth tones will dominate this look. The most important thing is to make sure the bracelet won’t get in the way of work or sports.
No-Go: A sailor’s wrap bracelet should never collide with his shirt cuff! After all, he’s the kind of guy who knows how to roll up his sleeves.

3. The mutineer: The rebel

Rebels are famous for going against the grain. Rockers and heavy metal types still tend to have an inner rebel that wants to get out. If this is you, a delicate wrap bracelet for men with a gold clasp is NOT the answer. You’ll want to reach for the more massive, black, skull-covered designs with studs and spikes.
No-Go: Rocker jewelry is only for genuine rock n’ roll types. If you have more polo shirts in your closet than Ralph Lauren, do yourself and everyone else a favor by staying away from this particular style!

4. The helmsman: The trend spotter

Men at the helm have an eye for what’s ahead – this includes fashion trends. In the case of wrap bracelets for men, we’re talking leather, microfibers or plastic in bright neon colors. The options for setting fun color accents are limitless; for example, why not combine a bright blue bracelet with chinos in the same color and a white shirt and sneakers? Or you can go for just the opposite: Pants and a shirt in neutral colors (black, gray) paired with a bracelet and shoes in neon orange!
No-go: Avoid crazy color combinations with no rhyme or reason. To get this look right, there must be a method to your madness!

Get with the times, boys: Wrap bracelets for men aren’t the only fashion accessory that’ll look good on you! Armbands or necklaces are just as “allowed” as classics like rings and watches. Depending on your look, you can even opt for more in-your-face earrings, as well! In other words: Find (and wear) those buried treasures!

Braided or laced: Wrap bracelets for men.
