Silicone bracelets

Fashion is contradictory and contrasting. Some are in pursuit of expensive jewelry, others create interesting images with original accessories. Silicone bracelet is an ornament that has gained considerable popularity among young people.

It is impossible to give a clear definition of a silicone bracelet, because this hand accessory is used not only to create a spectacular bow, but also as an advertisement, a distinctive sign, a place for contact information for people suffering from mental disorders.

The model is made of inexpensive material, namely food grade silicone. Raw materials are lightweight and unpretentious, not afraid of water and sunlight. In addition, the material is very soft and plastic, you can wear it even at night without feeling discomfort.

However, there are also silicone bracelets with an internal steel plate, which ensures their rigidity.

Like many things that are fashionable today, the first silicone jewelry was not released for catwalks and stylish couturier collections.Its history began in 2004, when Lanny Armstrong, together with Nike, began distributing free silicone accessories with the brand's logo to all members of a charity campaign aimed at treating people with cancer. The bright, well-doing bracelets were popular with the public, quickly becoming a fashion accessory.

From that moment began the mass production of stylish details. Their surface was decorated with inscriptions and logos of brands, creating an unobtrusive but effective advertising campaign, because a huge number of people wanted to get an unusual bracelet.

Accessory in its development went even further. And with the help of its color, propagandists of ideologies found people close to themselves in spirit. So, green accessories were owned by environmentalists, white accessories were anti-abortion fighters, red ones were supporters of a non-smoking society.

Later, ideologies were a little forgotten, but young people did not even think about forgetting about fashionable experiments. Gradually, the inscriptions became brighter and more attractive, and silicone models slowly but surely moved into women's boxes on dressing tables of fashionistas. Thus began their simple, but such a diverse history of existence.

The main feature of bracelets is, of course, in the material.. Silicone cannot be called chemistry, because silicon is the raw material for creation. It is worth saying that most children's teethers are made from this material, which means that the material is clinically tested and completely safe. This is a significant plus - the material is hypoallergenic and suitable for owners of hypersensitive skin.

Having studied the features of the material, you can confidently declare the ideality of the bracelet. However, making it with a logo makes the product even more beautiful. Printing here can be of two types:

It cannot be said about the speed of work with depressed or convex application. To obtain a relief inscription, specialists go in two different ways. In the first case, a stamp with a logo is applied during the manufacture of the bracelet and subsequently stained by the piece. In the second advanced technology, printing occurs with a laser to the desired depth. There is no doubt about the beauty of such a product.
