A conductive wrist band for dissipating electrostatic charges and having opposing transverse ends, includes a fabric; mechanical snap connectors coupled to the fabric ends for forming the fabric into a closed loop with an inside surface adapted to contact the body; an electrical connector coupled to the mechanical snap for providing a connection between the fabric and an electrical cable capable of connecting the conductive body strap to ground; and the fabric including a weft yarn extending between the opposing transverse ends and forming said inside surface and an opposite, outside surface; parallel rows of a substantially non-elastic, conductive yarn positioned in a sinusoidal manner on the inside surface of the weft yarn, parallel rows of a non-conductive elastic fiber positioned on the outside surface of the weft yarn in opposing relation to the conductive yarn, and a securing yarn for securing the conductive yarn and the elastic fiber to the weft yarn.
