Are Gold CZ Tennis Bracelets Safe to Wear For Sports?

Many people like to wear some form of jewelry when they play sports, but not all jewelry is safe to wear.  In some instances it can actually cause bodily damage, such as when an earring gets caught and ripped out, tearing the ear during a game of basketball, for example.  In other instances, it’s just not practical to wear jewelry as it gets caught and broken. Gold cz tennis bracelets, however, are some of the safer jewelry to wear while playing sports, aside from rings which are perhaps the safest jewelry of all to wear.

Cubic Zirconia bracelets fit snug against the wrist in most instances, and unlike some other charm style bracelets with dangling charms and beads, tennis bracelets are made in such a way that the stones are inlaid in a flat style.  This type of bracelet, until recently, was referred to as the in-line bracelet as the stones are all set in line with one another. While they may not be recommended for more strenuous sports, like basketball as an example, they are usually fine to wear for tennis, badminton, swimming, track, and other such non contact sports.

One problem you may face with your gold cz tennis bracelet is that the snap may give way. It is important to keep an eye on the snaps themselves, as they can become worn and thus not close as firmly, or they may just pop right open. The best thing to do, if you’re going to wear tennis bracelets while playing sports, is to fit it with a safety chain. This chain should be short enough that even if the snap comes open the bracelet will not easily slide off your wrist.

If you are planning on wearing your tennis bracelet while playing sports, you may want to set aside your diamond tennis bracelet and instead choose the cheaper, yet still very nice cubic zirconia bracelet.  If anything should happen to your bracelet, the loss to your pocketbook would be a good deal less with gold cz tennis bracelets as they are not as costly to buy as the ‘real deal’ diamond tennis bracelet.

Chris Evert realized this during the 1987 US Open Tennis Tournament.  It was during this match that her diamond in-line bracelet broke, and the game was halted while she picked up her diamond bracelet from the tennis court.  This was when this style of bracelet was labelled as the ‘tennis bracelet’. Naturally, a lot of interest in this style of bracelet was also revived, thus making it a fashion bracelet.

But unless you are able and willing to part with diamonds, you probably should only wear gold cz tennis bracelets whilst playing sports, or engaging in any activities that could result in either a lost or broken bracelet!
