What size strap does the Coros Nomad take?

How do I clean my nylon Coros Nomad strap?
Nylon straps are incredibly comfortable but can hold onto sweat and dirt over time.

Do not put it in a washing machine or dryer, as this can ruin the material.
Is it difficult to change the strap?
Not at all. The quick-release pins allow you to swap bands in seconds using just your fingers - no tiny screwdrivers or special tools required.
