I bought the Peony Braided for my SO and it's her favorite band EVER in 8-9 years of AW. Just sayin'
 
Where did this come from (it's gorgeous), and why didn't it make it to production? Along with a good jewel-tone purple and green?
Chargerstore on eBay.

I’ve always reckoned apple favors toned down sport bands so as to not upstage the case finishes.

It also has a close cousin prototype that’s less purple that we call Magenta that probably matches the current Magenta silicone case. I don’t have the band to confirm.

Thanks, I haven't bought anything from Chargerstore in a long time - I should go take a look around.

Apple has like 97 blues (some of which are fabulous), and yet for green and purple, it feels like they've got a dartboard on the wall with the perfect green and purple in the middle and they're throwing darts with their eyes closed and a lot of them are landing on the wall, or floor, or ceiling.

It’s hard to not notice they didn’t do green until Jony left, he doesn’t like green. There’s a suspended user who used to be here that has a perfect Emerald prototype that’s “good green.” I think it’s in the museum server linked in my signature.

Also vert Moyen hermes is a pretty perfect green.

Yeah me too and I even grabbed Plum and Black for under 20 each last week. Got all the cases. No thicker iPhone 17P for me!
I have black and Fuschia too from fall. I’m skipping 17… hopefully 18 brings something nice (and better!). Not down with the rumored aluminum either..
