The perfect armband tattoo is a rare thing. You could spend your whole life looking for one, and it would not be a wasted life. Just kidding. But there is something undeniably satisfying about a well conceived and well executed armband design.

Over time, the armband tattoo has evolved from its tribal origins, through the barbed wire phase (thankfully), and onto its current state of immense diversity. If you can dream it, it can, and probably already has been realized in ink.

Here is a list of extraordinary examples of armband tattoos we hope you’ll enjoy. If you have a design that you think should be included, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
