Collection: Cuban Link Chain

The Cuban link chain gets its name from its strong connection to Miami’s Cuban-American culture, where it rose to popularity in the late 1970s and 1980s. Though the chain style didn’t originate in Cuba, it became iconic in Miami’s hip-hop and Latin fashion scenes, earning the name “Cuban link.”

This type of chain features thick, rounded, interlocking links—similar to a curb chain, but with a bolder, heavier look. Today, men’s Cuban link chains are widely recognized for their solid sterling silver construction and streetwear appeal. The name reflects not just a design, but a cultural legacy that continues to shape modern men’s jewelry.

Both Cuban link chains and curb chains are classics, but they’re not the same. Here’s what sets them apart:

• Cuban link chains are chunkier. The links are rounder, thicker, and heavier, which gives them that bold, luxury feel.
• Curb chains are flatter and more low-key. They lie closer to the skin and have a sleeker, more laid-back profile.
• Cuban links usually cost more because there’s more silver packed into every inch.
• Curb chains are more flexible and lighter, making them great for layering or daily wear.

If you want something flashy and solid, go for a sterling silver Cuban chain.

If you're into subtle but clean, a curb chain might be more your style.

It depends on the look you're going for and how you plan to wear it. Here’s a quick breakdown to help you pick the right length for your men’s Cuban link chain:

• 18"–20" – Sits around the base of the neck. Clean, close fit. Great for guys who want something short and sharp.
• 22"–24" – Hits the upper chest. This is the most popular length for Cuban chains—perfect for layering or wearing over a tee.
• 26"–30" – Longer and looser. Gives a bold, laid-back vibe. Looks great with hoodies or oversized fits.

💡 Tip:

Thicker chains (like 8mm or 10mm) usually look better in longer lengths, while thinner ones can work short or layered.

Cuban link chains are bold, but that doesn’t mean they can’t be layered. Here’s how to pull it off:

• Mix lengths – Start with a shorter chain (like 18" or 20") and layer it with a 22" or 24" Cuban. That way, they won’t tangle or clash.
• Play with thickness – Pair a chunky Cuban chain with a thinner box chain, rope chain, or even a pendant necklace to add contrast.
• Stick to one metal – Silver on silver keeps it clean. Go all-in on sterling silver for a solid, cohesive look.
• Balance matters – If your Cuban is doing the heavy lifting, keep the other chains simpler so they don’t fight for attention.

Cuban link chains are made to stand out—so they work best with outfits that let them shine.

Here’s how to wear them without overthinking it:

• T-shirt + jeans – Classic. A sterling silver Cuban chain instantly levels up a basic fit.
• Hoodie or streetwear – Go for a chunky Cuban over a hoodie or sweatshirt. It’s a bold, laid-back vibe that just works.
• Button-down shirt – Leave the top buttons open and let the chain peek out. Adds edge to a clean look.
• Blazer or suit jacket – Yep, you can dress it up too. Just keep the chain mid-length (like 22"–24") and skip the tie.
