Enso Rings

If you wear a traditional metal ring, you know the hassle of taking it on and off every time you need to use your hands. I’m constantly taking my ring on and off when I’m working out or traveling. That’s why I’ve been loving The Rise Collection from Enso Rings. They’re high-quality silicone rings that are a great alternative to hard-metal rings and I can keep it on all day!

Enso Rings’ Rise Collection is great for my lifestyle. They combine a classic precious metal look with the comfort and safety of silicone. In stylish colors like obsidian, slate, forest green, and denim. Enso Rings are the perfect alternative for your traditional wedding band and you can leave your ring on no matter what you’re doing, whether you’re at work, at the gym, or traveling.

Plus, Enso Rings’ Rise Collection has the first ever silicone rings infused with SteriTouch™ Antimicrobial Technology, who doesn’t want a cleaner ring! And they’re made right here in the US.
