Whoop just announced its new Meridian band, a jewelry-inspired look you can even wear to special occasions.

Whoop just made its most stylish band yet. Meet the Meridian jewelry-inspired band.

Whoop has unveiled its latest offering in the form of the Meridian band, a titanium-infused band that promises to elevate your style game. This new band, made from waterproof stainless steel mesh, is designed to complement your existing jewelry collection. According to Whoop, the Meridian band is intended to be worn alongside your other accessories, offering a more polished look compared to traditional fitness tracker bands.

The primary challenge with health and fitness trackers, particularly those meant for continuous wear, is their often sporty appearance. While you might not mind a knit or rubber band during regular workouts, you'd likely prefer something less conspicuous for special occasions. This is where the Meridian band comes in. Drawing inspiration from the Milanese-style mesh bands found in other high-end wearables, such as the Oura Ring, Whoop's design aims to seamlessly blend with your existing jewelry, providing a more sophisticated look.

Available in four distinct colors - gold, rose gold, silver, and matte black - the band features a Milanese Loop-inspired silhouette and a magnetic adjuster for a customized fit. Unlike the device itself, which is priced at $349, the Meridian band is sold separately and comes with a price tag of $149. It's important to note that this band is available for purchase directly from Whoop's online store.
