What Color Ring Should Men Wear?

For example, let’s say you lead an active lifestyle—you might want a metal that’s scratch-resistant and durable.
In that case, here are a few staple rings you'll want add to your collection:
Gold Band Rings
One of the most classic and versatile styles is the gold band ring. As a warm-tone, it naturally pairs well with both neutral and even bolder coloured clothing making it a staple part of any collection. However, solid gold is expensive and prone to scratches, so many guys opt for 18K gold-plated stainless steel instead.
