Aside from the ever-present wristwatch, men’s jewelry has constantly wavered in and out of the fashion world. Clunky class-style rings have been around since great-grandaddy’s days, and earrings flared up for a while in the 90s (one ear only, mind you). Cufflinks and tie-clips are more accessories for your clothes than the man underneath. What is a man that likes a little sizzle to do?

Happily, men’s jewelry is on the rise as acceptable accessories. But we’re willing to bet that a fair number of you are just now dipping your toe into the world of wrist-wear beyond watches, and it might all be a bit overwhelming. There are so many options out there… which do you go with? Slim and subdued? Bulky and bright? Metal or some other material?

This post is all about putting you at ease with your new bling. We’ve pulled together a list of cool bracelets that should have everything you need to help you decide on the material, color, and thickness that’s just right for your new wristwear. Be warned though: for such a little piece of accessorization, men’s jewelry bracelets can draw a lot of attention. So prepare yourself for some well-deserved admiration.

Our verdict

Usually, we opt for more subtle branding, but for Gucci, we’ll always make an exception. The palladium finish and chunky aesthetic are designed with a “more is more” maxim in mind. Although our minimalist sartorialists may want to go for something more understated.

Gucci doesn’t do subtle, and this Interlocking G bracelet is no exception. Men’s designer bracelets don’t come much bolder than this eye-catcher with its interlocking chain loops in a shining palladium finish. The double-Gs that serve as the bracelet’s clasp are the branded cherry on top of this luxury accessory sundae.

That tradition is carried forward in the brand’s very first piece of jewelry—a classy and strong leather bracelet, The Andrea. Resembling a leather belt, complete with a belt buckle-style clasp system, The Andrea’s simple aesthetic can stand on its own, compliment a luxury watch, or mix and match with other multiple bracelets for men (mix it with shining metal bracelets or watchbands for maximum effect).

Backed by simple soulful strength, matte black stone adds texture to an outfit without dominating the look. We wear ours beside a more oversized leather watch.

Bead bracelets for men are an ancient style. Mejuri’s 6mm Gemstone Beaded Bracelet gives us a good idea why. The strung beads of black agate should look delicate, but they don’t. Instead they offer up a quiet sense of strength, finished with a sterling silver swivel clasp.

The Faris White Seed Bracelet is more understated than most pearl adornments, making it a more conservative way to add a polished perfection to relaxed summer button-downs and playful prints.

One of the birthstones, pearls’ unblemished spheres represent humility and purity. Faris’ White Seed bracelet plays to these strengths by adding on a simple 14k hook-eye clasp, letting the pearls’ attractive restraint do all the heavy fashion-lifting of this adornment. Because of its clean look, this pearl bracelet can act as a cultured counterpoint to busier prints of top tier casual shirts.

Marrying the country club with the down-and-dirty rock bar, this one is perfect for the individualist modern man looking for accessories that reflect his multifaceted personality. They won’t be able to box you, and that’s probably what you want.

This bracelet is a bit of an odd duck, but we love it for its quirkiness. On one side, Valentino’s Garavani Rockstud Cord’s basic design is a throwback to old-school tennis bracelets. On the other hand, it has Valentino’s signature Rockstuds, which scream rock and roll. The two camps come together to make a piece that’s an enjoyable eye-catcher.

Frequently asked questions about bracelets for men

What bracelet looks best on men?
If you’re going out to a formal event and want something elegant, start your search with the solid Arbor Gold Vermeil Cuff from Miansai. For something more laid-back, try M. Cohen’s drawstring beaded bracelet, or All Blues’ hammered-effect cuff bracelet.
Which brand is best for bracelets?
We really like Mejuri’s men’s line, which covers simple silver and gold chains as well as beaded bracelets. Check our round-up of the best bracelets for men to find the perfect one for you.
Are bracelets good for men?
They certainly are. It did seem for a while that bracelets were considered a bit too showy for some men, but they’re making a strong comeback. They’re an easy way to add quite a bit of elegance or color to an outfit, and are versatile enough to work with multiple looks.
Should guys wear bracelets on the left or right?
There is no rule about which wrist a man should wear his bracelets on. Bracelets can go nicely on the same wrist as a watch, or can be paired opposite another bracelet on opposing wrists. Just don't wear too many adornments at once. Your wrists will look too busy.
