Size guide
Find your bracelet size
Measure at home in 2 minutes
You need a strip of paper (or a string or shoelace), a pen and a ruler.
- Wrap the strip around your wrist, just above the wrist bone, snug but not tight.
- Mark with the pen where the end overlaps.
- Lay it flat and measure from the end to the mark: that is your wrist size.
- Find your wrist in the table below and read the bracelet length, close fit or looser.
Already have a bracelet that fits well? Lay it flat, clasp closed, measure it end to end and order that length.
No ruler? A bank card is 3.4" long: count how many fit along your strip.
| Your wrist | Bracelet for a snug fit | For a relaxed fit |
|---|---|---|
| 5.5 in | 6.1 in | 6.5 in |
| 5.9 in | 6.5 in | 6.9 in |
| 6.3 in | 6.9 in | 7.3 in |
| 6.7 in | 7.3 in | 7.7 in |
| 7.1 in | 7.7 in | 8.1 in |
| 7.5 in | 8.1 in | 8.5 in |
| 7.9 in | 8.5 in | 8.9 in |

How to wear it
Several braided and smooth strands are layered into one bracelet of 21.5 cm, which suits a wrist of about 18.5 to 20 cm. A small polished steel cross sits on top, and a clasp keeps it in place all day. It looks natural with jeans, a flannel shirt or a leather jacket, and next to a watch on the same wrist.
The steel cross does not rust, but the strands stay in better shape if you take the bracelet off before a swim or a long shower. Pick the finish that matches his watch: silver, gold-tone, rose gold-tone or black.
Questions
Will the 21.5 cm Braided Devotion fit a large man's wrist?
It suits wrists of about 18.5 to 20 cm. The bracelet measures 21.5 cm (about 8.5 in) with a clasp, so measure just below the wrist bone before choosing it.
What is the difference between the four finishes?
The color of the steel cross and clasp: silver, gold-tone, rose gold-tone or black. The layered strands are the same.
Is it a good cross bracelet for men?
Yes. It is designed for men, with a rugged layered look and a small cross that does not shout.
How does it close?
With a clasp that keeps it in place through the day, so it does not slide off when you work or move.
What do the layered strands around the cross of The Braided Devotion mean?
Many read the bound strands as an image of a faith that holds a life together. The small steel cross sits where the layers meet.
Which finish should I pick for my husband?
Match what he already wears: silver or black with a steel watch, gold-tone or rose gold-tone with a gold-colored watch or ring.
He came home from Afghanistan years ago but he never really came home, you know? My husband is a good man and he's in a dark place a lot. I worry about him constantly.
Living with the man who came back while missing the one who left is a grief of its own, and there is rarely a casserole for that. Let me be honest: your worry deserves more than a bracelet. If he ever talks about not wanting to be here, or if you are afraid he might hurt himself, call 988 and press 1 for the Veterans Crisis Line, for him or for you. Ask his VA team or a chaplain about what he needs. If you want a small sign too, the Braided Devotion, is braided cords meeting at a large cross, a faith that holds a life together. You could tell him only: I see how hard you are fighting, and I am still here.

Its meaning
A threefold cord and the cross
The Book of Ecclesiastes says that a threefold cord is not quickly broken, a line often read at Christian weddings and applied to a life bound together by faith.
Braiding works the same way: separate strands, woven together, become stronger than any one of them. This bracelet gathers braided and smooth strands into several layers, with a steel cross at the center. It comes in polished silver, gold, rose gold or black, and closes with a clasp. It suits a man who likes a rugged, relaxed look, while the rose gold version reads softer.
Giving it as a gift
Give it to a brother, a son or a husband for Father's Day or Christmas. With four finishes, you can match it to the watch or the jewelry he already wears.
