Written by Mufti Sibghat Ullah 

Question:

A lot of youth wear Palestinians bracelet or wristbands, is this permitted?

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Answer:

Generally, bracelets are woman adornments. So, wearing of bracelets would indicate to the imitation of women and thus will be considered impermissible[i].

References:

[i] Al Hidayah, Volume 5, Book of Clothing, Page 334.

يحرم على الرجل أن يرتدي ملابس أو زينة خاصة بالنساء

It is impermissible for men to wear garments or adornments that are specific to women, just as it is impermissible for women to wear garments or adornments specific to men.

Only Allah knows best.
