A traditional ring has a flat edge against the finger while a comfort fit has a rounded edged meeting the finger. A comfort fit slides on easier and is suggested for highly active lifestyles or for certain careers.
For women, choose a band that is comfortable when worn with an an engagement ring. Wider rings may not be as comfortable when worn together. For many men, a wedding band will be their most significant piece of jewelry so a larger mm size is often preferred. For couples, the widths of each ring do not have to match!
There are many options ranging from a flat top, a subtle curve to a high profile which is domed in appearance.
