That's the nylon webbing version, right? I have a watch that I wear while riding with similar material for the band. It doesn't bother me. I have to order a RoadID one of these days, and I'm going with the sport version.

I have the sport version (wristband). I keep it loose and tend to forget it's there.

I got the dog tag version for a similar reason. I don't like things rubbing against my wrist/ankle.

I have the sport and wear it everywhere, even at the office. I ride by myself a lot and it is great. I wear it to work because my coworkers have quicker emergency access than having to contact our human resources department. It is very comfortable and even forget I am wearing it most times. We got my mother one after my dad died since she lives by herself. She loves it and wears it everywhere. Worth every penny.

I have the rubbery road ID (I have uber sensitive skin and thought this wouldn't rub against my skin)that is interactive...my main reason for choosing the interactive is that I have a laundry list of foods and basic medications I am allergic to that they may use in an emergency situation...like latex gloves...so even I did come into contact with it they would know why I broke out into hives and a rash and blisters rather than trying to determine if the rash came the accident I was in.

If you're allergic to latex you should have a way to notify EMTs without their having to call a phone number or look up a website, since they will be gloved when they arrive.

It is pretty comfortable. My only issue with it is that Velcro + wool (long sleeved) = fraying cuffs. Had that issue with a watch strap until I could find one that wasn't velcro. So, I ended up with the dog tag one as well, to avoid that problem in cool weather.

Yeah, that's one of my problems. My watch strap kills the left cuff of any long-sleeve shirts I own. I just don't like regular watch straps.
