Wedding bands for men: how to choose a keeper
When dating casual, you can try out different personalities, character traits, likes and dislikes with little to no harm inflicted on either party. But when looking for marriage, certain elements should pay more attention than others. Goals, values, and morale are just as important as ambition, responsibility, and accountability. Choosing the right man to build and share a life is the foundation of a wonderful relationship.
When looking for a men’s wedding ring, you need to consider your style, your build, and most importantly, the demeanor in which you portray yourself. You will first want to evaluate their constitution. Do you have a large, medium or small frame? If it is tall and fairly wide, a substantial ring with a wider and heavier band, such as a tungsten carbide ring in the 7-10mm range, would be ideal. A slimmer man, or one who is short to medium height, will be better suited to a slimmer band, such as 3-6mm width.
Once you know the correct width, you can further narrow your options by identifying the type of men’s wedding ring that best suits your personality. If you are a sophisticated man who values quality and has the best television, car, sunglasses, and clothing, then selecting a wedding ring that meets your desire for the best is top of the list. You will surely want to look at wedding bands that weigh considerable weight, maintain a lustrous shine, and possibly even be adorned with diamonds or other gemstones. Tungsten carbide rings are quite popular with this group as they feel and appear luxurious and with the almost indestructible quality they are known for. Tungsten carbide men’s wedding bands undoubtedly exude confidence, class, and most importantly, quality. If, on the other hand, your boy is cheerful, values a sense of humor, carefree and spontaneous, a light titanium ring may be more suitable for him. Titanium rings are ultralight but incredibly strong. They can be simple in design or have a creative and elegant touch.
Style can also be determined by noting your preference for metal. There are many popular metals that vary in price, durability, and appearance. Platinum rings are quite expensive and are often selected solely for presumed prestige.
On the other hand, a man who values quality over prestige may be more satisfied with a tungsten ring. Much less expensive than platinum rings, tungsten wedding bands feature the same sparkle and shine as platinum, but are much more resistant to damage and destruction. They are also a bit heavier, which is great for a man who likes a solid weight. Titanium rings are almost as durable as tungsten rings, but they are significantly lighter, hypoallergenic, and offer a lighter gray color, or they can shine to an almost reflective hue.
Another popular option is to enhance the metals with other metals or gemstones. Titanium can be combined with white gold, yellow gold, or platinum to create a more elaborate look. Diamonds, sapphires, and other gemstones can add a unique touch for the refined gentleman.
Knowing your man, his tastes, favorite hobbies, and even the type of friends he has can make shopping for a men’s wedding band more productive and enjoyable. Considering what you do, both for business and pleasure, you can identify a style of ring that goes well with your lifestyle.
