Nice ring, but one of the two purchases already broke after less than a month of wearing it. My child bought the rings as a gift so we can have matching rings and my teens broke it within a month. My teen doesn’t do sport, so it wasn’t wasn’t due to physical active and hits to the hand. The second ring (my ring) is still going strong but I do have a 9-5 office job so there isn’t much movement on my hands aside from typing, meal prepping and work outs but I do think it’s kind of an issue one ring broke already. I would think hard before purchasing.They don't absorb stress I don't think but I like the way it fits and it looks nice not to mention that it's magnetic we high I think is coolThe sizes are smaller or not even correct. I normally wear an 8 1/2 but I ordered the 9 and it didn’t even fit. Super pretty though!doesn't really work said cracks when stressed and stuff and I know for sure it isn't working...They aren’t real hematite, don’t buy them pleaseHusband loves this ring. He says it is comfortable, likes the weight and fit. He is a tow truck driver and likes how durable the ring.It fits a bit tight, I’m usually a size 9 but on this product I would recommend to size upNice and comfortable
