Traditionally, wedding bands have often been made from metals like sterling silver and yellow gold. Here’s the thing about traditions, though: They can change! Today, Modern Gents offers plenty of non-metal wedding band options for anybody who wants to look beyond traditional precious metals.

What’s up with non-metal wedding bands, and why have they gotten increasingly popular? What kind of non-metal alternatives does Modern Gents offer for those who want a stylish ring without metal, or with non-traditional wedding ring metals? We’ve got all of your answers coming up!

Why Choose a Non-Metal Wedding Band?

Our customers choose non-metal wedding bands for a variety of reasons. Of course, you don’t need a reason to choose whatever ring you want! However, if any of the following sounds like you, a non-metal wedding band might be a perfect choice.

  • Metal Allergies: Allergic skin reactions to metal that cause itching and burning sensations are surprisingly common when wearing metal jewelry. This is especially common with jewelry that contains nickel, which is why you won’t find nickel in any Modern Gents ring! In many models, we use alternative metals, like tungsten carbide and titanium, which are considered hypoallergenic because they’re much less likely to cause allergic reactions.
  • Safety: Wearing a metal ring can be a safety hazard in certain jobs and activities. Everything from working with machinery to playing basketball can put you at risk of a hand injury when you’re wearing a metal ring. That’s why you’ll see a lot of folks with active lifestyles who wear silicone rings while working or at the gym. 
  • Aesthetics: Silver and gold just aren’t some people’s style! Plenty of people wear rings made from alternative materials simply because they like how they look — and we’re totally here for it.

Carbon fiber is one of the coolest materials on Earth. It’s in everything from race cars to advanced military tech — and now it’s in wedding rings, too! The Stealth is a sleek carbon fiber wedding band, available in a scratch resistant black matte finish that makes it different from anything else out there. Extremely tough and incredibly lightweight, it’s one of our most popular wedding rings with men (although we suspect that just about anyone who wants a badass ring could appreciate it).

This simple and stylish silicone band is a perfect stand-in for your wedding band when you’re operating machinery, working out or doing anything else that you’re worried might put your ring (and your fingers) at risk. It’s also a great choice for folks with metal allergies! Simple, comfortable and chic, the Ultraflex is a no-brainer when you need a flexible alternative.
