This mens wedding band is ideal for active husbands with busy hands. Designed by Jeff McWhinney, the these durable wedding rings offer more choice compared to the plethora of options available to women. Inspired by the lack of diversity in the world of mens wedding bands, the California based designer and machinist got to work.
McWhinney's rings include a locking mechanism that covers the finger like a clasp, unlike conventional bands which slide over the knuckle with no give. This feature gives the ring a design element while also ensuring a better fit without having to go up a size. The hinged function makes the rings easier to take off as well, and are therefore more adaptable to physical activity.
