In all the stock photos, The pull tab on the ultra trail loop points upwards.

I’ve always done it in the opposite way- ie the pull tab facing down

Was interested how others wear it?

I've tried both ways. I prefer the pull tab facing down, like you.

Reason: When putting on the watch, it seems to work better to pull down and towards me to tighten the band.

Fully agree with you. I only noticed this was different after getting another trail loop band today and seeing colours were the other way round lol

Hi Jack,

Same as you and well.

Reason - Better for keyboard typing. Don't know if it makes any difference, but I'm a leftie so I can tilt my wrist away a lot of the time - no annoying double fold crinkling from the velcro tabs, and no tapping from the end plastic puck on the table.
