And why that’s the whole point.
When we launched OSleeve, we didn’t set out to make something indestructible.
We set out to make something sacrificial.
Because the reality is this: your smart ring is valuable. It’s an investment in your health, your data, and your daily rhythm. Whether it’s tracking your recovery or reminding you to pause, it plays a quiet but powerful role in how you move through the world.
And yet, most smart rings are surprisingly vulnerable.
They’re scratched by barbells, scuffed by sandbags, dented by dumbbells, and worn down by the day-to-day things we all do, lifting kids, grabbing handles, typing, training, carrying, climbing, and recovering. You name it.
That’s where OSleeve comes in.
Your OSleeve is made from premium, skin-safe silicone, engineered to absorb friction, take impact, and shield your smart ring from harm. And yes, over time, it may show signs of wear; occasionally, it may even tear.
That’s not a defect.
That’s the sleeve doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.
A sleeve that looks perfect forever probably isn’t doing much at all. If your OSleeve is a little scuffed, softened, or even split, that means your smart ring isn’t.
We’d rather the sleeve take the damage than your $400 ring.
We call it a sacrificial protector.
Just like a sneaker sole, a brake pad, or a snowboard edge, OSleeve is made to wear out so your smart ring doesn’t.
It's not disposable. It's purposeful.
Ethically made. Carefully engineered. And always evolving, based on real feedback from people who train hard, live smart, and care about the small things.
What if my OSleeve tears?
If your sleeve tears under normal use, it means it’s reached the end of its life cycle. It has absorbed the stress it was meant to, just like any protective gear. It’s not ideal, but it’s expected when something is doing protective work day after day.
We are constantly improving our formulas and design to increase durability without compromising comfort. OSleeve will continue to evolve as we learn from real-world use.
But can’t I just buy a 10-pack of cheap protectors?
You could. And many people do, at least once.
But here’s the truth we hear all the time from customers who tried that first:
-
The fit is off. Too loose, and they slip mid-workout. Too tight, and they warp or crack.
-
The material isn’t built for real wear, using low-quality silicone.
-
They break at the wrong moment. Under pressure. Under weight. Without warning.
-
Worst of all, they give you a false sense of security.
You think your ring is protected, but it’s not. The sleeve slips off, splits, or stretches out of place, and your smart ring takes the hit instead.

We’re here to be the one that works when it actually matters.
So how long should it last?
That depends on how you live.
-
Daily lifting? You might rotate sleeves every 3 to 6 months.
-
Light everyday wear? Expect it to last longer.
-
Want to keep it looking fresh? Many of our customers grab a second sleeve for the gym and one for daily wear.
OSleeve isn’t meant to last forever. It’s meant to last until it’s done its job, so your smart ring can keep doing yours.
