I just acquired a fake solo loop for $10. It didn't even have a size, it just said "fits 44mm watch". Luckily. it fits me quite well.
I've seen Apple recommending buyers to measure the wrist, and I've seen Daring Fireball having a conversion image using your current sportband hole. However, is there any site that just shows the length of each solo loop size? I measured my fake solo loop to be exactly 15cm. Assuming it has the same elasticity as Apple's solo loop, which size should I buy? This fake band is great for $10, but I don't trust it for sport activities etc.

Meassuring via the apple printout thing 15cm is exactly at size number 5, but as those are elastic and there is also the extra watch body size (44mm) to account, maybe in reality it is a 10 or even a tight fit 11. I Currently purchased a fake solo loop 40mm "L", It's a confortable size 10.

Obs. For a Quick reference on new purchases, meassure the band, then add the watch size (in this case 15 + 4,4 = 19,4) go to the site where they allow you to print the meassure thing, but choose houlsehood objects instead, it will guide you at meassuring your wrist, but in this case you're meassuring your loop+watch (the 19,4cm up there) since you are trying to discover the loop size, not yours, click next and it will ask you to input the meassured number, 19cm is 10, 19,5 is 11.
