The Best Silicone Rings of 2023

QALO ($10-40) wins top awards for durability and versatility. We’ve worn our QALO rings through all manner of outdoor activities and haven’t had any issues with the medical-grade silicone stretching or breaking. And we like that there’s a huge selection of color options and styles available.

Our female tester found some of the unisex designs to be a bit too thick and uncomfortable. But the Metallic Strat line is comfortably thin (while still being plenty durable) and offers a more natural look. QALO even offers a “build your own stack” feature that allows you to mix and match textures, widths, and colors together, so true ring enthusiasts can mix up their look on a day-to-day, outfit-to-outfit basis.

If you like colors and patterns, QALO has a lot to choose from. From etched designs to tie-dye patterns and reversible rings, there’s something for everyone. You can even customize certain rings with personalized engraved text. For comfort, versatility, and style, QALO offers some of the best silicone rings on the market today.

ROQ ($7-17) offers up an unbeatable bargain, paired with impressive durability. We’ve worn a single ROQ ring for 6 months straight. This includes plenty of time spent splitting firewood and lifting weights, in addition to daily activities like showering, cooking, and washing hands frequently. And the ROQ ring fits just as well as it did on day one.

On the other hand, these rings are engineered to elongate and eventually break under enough stress. If you work with your hands, you know that getting your ring caught on a piece of machinery could result in losing a finger. An inexpensive, replaceable ROQ ring could actually save your finger while still showing off your marital status in the workplace.

They have a variety of colors and styles, including a few with a shimmery finish and several stackable options. And considering you can get a four-pack for $13, you can rest easy knowing you’ll have a backup if you accidentally lose one.

ROQ also has a lifetime guarantee and a “no questions asked return/exchange policy.” These rings are easily the best budget silicone rings available.

Looking for a ring with an eye-catching pattern? Then you need to check out the ring selection from Groove Life ($22-35). From cactus blooms to a variety of Mossy Oak and Kryptek camo designs, there’s a lot to choose from. The brand’s copper ring is fairly realistic, although it doesn’t mimic natural metals as well as Enso Rings (see below).

Comfort-wise, we’ve been very impressed with our Groove ring. The inside has an etched groove design meant to increase airflow and let moisture out. And while we can’t claim that it works better than other rings, we will say these are some of the most comfortable we’ve worn.

And best of all, they have a lifetime warranty. As its website states, “If your Groove Life product stretches, breaks, gets lost or eaten by a fish (sorry, excludes belts), our professional customer service individuals will send you a replacement.”

One tester saw some wear and tear (literally) after years of wearing his. And the brand was prompt to respond and honor its impressive warranty. If you try one on and like it, you’ve got one of the best silicone rings for life.

Enso ($12-50) wins for design and realistic precious metal options. Unfortunately, long-term durability concerns keep it from being our overall favorite silicone ring.

First, the good: these rings actually look like real metal rings. People are always shocked to find out it’s made of silicone. The shape mimics a traditional ring, and the metallic finish is quite realistic (especially the copper and rose gold). It also breathes well and is exceedingly comfortable.

Unfortunately, we’ve had issues with stretching. After a few months of daily use, it stretches out and no longer fits. Several have been lost while swimming due to a stretched fit. And some male testers with larger hands faced issues with the ring tearing.

Enso does offer a lifetime warranty. It states that its warranty “covers rips, breaks, tears, and discoloration. Your first warranty is completely on us. Each additional replacement will just have a fee for shipping and handling.”

Of all the silicone ring brands on the market, Enso offers the biggest range of novelty designs. Enso’s niche collections include Star Wars, Lilo & Stitch, Pixar, and more. If you want a realistic-looking ring and don’t mind phoning in for the occasional replacement, Enso offers some of the coolest silicone rings on the market.

ThunderFit offers up an array of styles for men and women. They all clock in under $20 and come in a wide range of colors and sizes. Our male testers like the 10mm bands with Air-Flow grooves (shown above) while our female tester favored the 5.5mm copper ring.

All of ThunderFit’s rings are made with hypoallergenic silicone that is built to break away at 43 pounds of pressure. We found them smooth and comfortable through all manner of activities. These rings did seem to attract more lint than some other brands, which was slightly annoying.

The durability was okay, but we found these wore out more quickly than similar-size QALO rings. All in all, they’re a great bargain and a solid choice. If you don’t mind replacing them more regularly, this could be the best silicone ring for your needs.

SafeRingz ($25-33) silicone rings are made in the USA and come in three widths: the 3mm Stackable, 6mm Original, and 9mm Titan. There are 11 colors available, all with a slight shimmer to mimic a traditional metal ring. There’s also an option for custom engraving, so you can make it unique with initials or an homage to your favorite mountain or sports team.

All in all, we found SafeRingz comfortable and long-lasting, but they didn’t stand out in any one category. They don’t offer up the extreme durability and versatility as our top pick, nor are they the best budget option. And the metallic options aren’t as realistic as others.

It’s also worth noting that “YESJ” is inscribed on the inside of each SafeRingz. As its website explains, it is “a representation of our team saying ‘YES Jesus’.” If that’s not your cup of tea, this probably isn’t the style for you. If your beliefs align, however, it might be the best silicone ring option for you and your partner.
