NIB Pollen woven nylon band arrived today. Really like the colors - they pop without being in your face about it. Makes me long for that beach vacation that is definitely not going to happen this year! Looks good with my space black but I bet it really pops with the regular stainless.

Gives me a “2010 Summer Beach House” vibe, if that lands with any of you.

Oh man seeing my favorite nylon new brings a tear to my eye. Dirt magnets they are, even if put them in and take them off with your hand inside your shirt like I do now...maybe ye of less arm hair will fare better!
 
Can someone post a photo of their Teal Tint Nike Sport Loop, please? Preferably in outside light, if possible.
I'm considering purchasing one from eBay seller "thegeex". Thanks!
This was kind of a shoes-forward post, hopefully it helps

It would be nice if Bandful gets an update with all the woven nylons. However, "check" nylons are like ugly Christmas sweaters to me. No way, no how.

Except for black “check” which I wouldn’t mind owning. Excuse the stock online photos but I actually think that one looks good. I do agree with you though other than that I’m not keen on the “check” wovens as well. (If anyone has the black check woven I’d love to see IRL photos) even though my hopes for finding one 42mm are really low.

Compared to Black & CYR. It’s a favorite.

(Zoomed in to pay respect to my now deceased Black stripe, sitting just out of frame. RIP, you will be missed.)

Yeah I’m not surprised that the lighter colors especially show dirt. Can’t the woven nylons be cleaned with a little soap and water like the sport loops though? I have only had the solid black woven nylon before this past week so dirt hasn’t been a problem so far.

I usually follow a “soak, wash, rinse, repeat” formula for my woven nylons. I use dish soap as it’s softer on the bands than hand soap, but I’ve been curious to try laundry detergent too.

Perhaps...I know I tried it with my first pearl gen 1 and it didn’t do much but I think that band is actually just so off-white out of the box it really plays tricks with the mind.

I just don’t think there’s any way to clean it back to anywhere near mint. Part of it is the crispiness too, which I feel like soaking it surrenders a little. Long live the sport loops!
