Apple Watch Ultra owners looking for a more vintage-themed replacement to the default Loops can now purchase authentic Italian leather bands from a Finnish accessory maker.
-- Finnish brand RobustGoods, now one of the fastest-rising names in the watch accessory industry, has announced the global release of its Leather Strap R01, a vintage-inspired band designed for Apple Watch Ultra wearers who want a premium, everyday strap with a distinctive character.

The launch comes amid growing global demand for luxury leather watch accessories. Industry analysts at Global Growth Insights forecast double-digit growth in the segment through 2032, driven by consumer interest in high-end straps that pair seamlessly with flagship devices such as the Apple Watch Ultra.
Crafted from thick, wide Italian vegetable-tanned bovine grain leather, the Leather Strap R01 blends rugged durability with refined vintage aesthetics. Its matte natural titanium-colored hardware complements the Ultra’s design, while the strap itself is built to age gracefully, developing a rich patina over time.
“For the artists who designed the R01, they were not creating a fancy replacement band, but a thoughtfully crafted accessory worth keeping for a long time,” said a spokesperson for RobustGoods. “We chose Italian leather for its rich texture and ability to tell a story as it ages. Every mark and deepening hue reflects your own experiences, making it truly personal.”
The company recommends the strap for daily wear without frequent water exposure to preserve its finish. It is fully compatible with the Apple Watch Ultra, Ultra 2, Series 1-10, and SE.
“We wanted to create a band that’s as tough as it is stylish,” the spokesperson added. “Whether you’re heading into the office or out on a weekend adventure, the R01 is designed to keep up, while looking better every year you own it.”
While designed for a flagship Apple product, the R01 is priced competitively, thanks to how RobustGoods operates. The brand utilizes a direct-to-consumer model, manufacturing, warehousing, and delivering its products without middlemen. This approach means customers from all over the world can enjoy the quality of a high-end boutique strap without the inflated price tag.
In addition to leather, RobustGoods offers Apple Watch Ultra bands in titanium and carbon fiber, catering to users seeking different textures and finishes.
