Many athletes, professional or not, in all different types of sports wear rubber bracelets. Why are rubber wristbands so popular among athletes you might ask? Or why do athletes wear silicone wristbands? It is because athletes tend to have to wear a team jersey while playing so they do not get to express themselves through their clothing. That is why they take the idea of self-expression to their wrists with rubber sports wristbands. It is their outlet to create awareness, stand up for causes, memorialize loved ones, and so much more while on the court, field, or pitch in front of millions.
In a matter of fact, one of the most famous NBA athletes in the world is always wearing sports silicone bracelets, also known as baller bands, while he is on the court playing basketball. That NBA player is the 18-time all-star named Lebron James. In fact, he customized a bracelet that says “I promise” and wears it every game. He created these rubber bracelets for his foundation, “The Lebron James Family Foundation.” His foundation is all about helping kids be better students. The saying “I promise” represents his promise to be a great role model to kids. He also wants kids to promise to be the best students they can be. It is a very powerful movement all stemming from a silicone wristband in sports.
