I have to say though, I've bought the chinese clone bands in the past and they don't compare. I don't know what type of material Apple uses but it's not cheap silicone and it lasts forever.
I have some vulcanised rubber straps for my regular watches and it kind of compares to that.
I recently had a close look at these bands in Bangkok - pre Corona. I was curios about it. They definitely look and are plastic. I did not like the look AND it was enough to have one of these in my hands. Haptics are not comparable at all. Plastic and cheap. I never ever will have a look at them.
