Polar Soft Strap The Polar Soft Strap is the most comfortable chest strap for measuring your heart rate. Comprised of soft fabrics covering the adaptive sensor, the strap is extremely sensitive to your heart's signals, meaning that readings are quick...
The rubbery material that touches the skin is much softer and better than the original strap
The surface that records your heart measurement is a solid section material that can be easily cleaned with a swipe of a sponge after each use.
Seems to stay in place better, with the sensors being a rubbery material as opposed to a cloth-like material with the previous version.
Fairly thin but doesn't roll, soft lining material, and the material in front that picks up your heart's electrical signals is quite flexible and adds little bulk.
The material cleans up better because there is a plastic liner instead of the mesh material on the older model.
Its great suggest one get an extra one to switch off as that works well for me.
Fits perfect, works great with my Garmin heart rate pod.
The Garmin transmitter works just fine with the Polar strap and the Polar strap is definitely more comfortable than than the Garmin strap (no chafing issues).
Eventually, that strap stopped working, and I suspect it was that two layer design that wore out.
Everything works perfect at the moment (as it did with garmin strap, in the beginning): no longer missed reading
I love Polar for their HR accuracy -- the most accurate on the market.
when I was casually riding my bike).Instead of buying yet another chest band and wasting more $, I bought a cheap Polar set that came with the wrist watch monitor (a cheap one without all the functionality of my good Polar watch), chest band, and the computer thing that snaps to the chest band
I note that Polar has made some design improvements since my earlier purchase.
The actual hear rate unit I have is really good (Polar M7 with bluetooth), but I really do not like the way all the Heart rate monitor makers have gone with this clip on style
I love my Polar H7 and this strap works and feels wonderful.
