I love it way more than I thought I would. The thing ROCKS on SBSS!

Yeah, I originally started to say I think it would look good with SBSS. I’m not a great fan of the all black look and consequently I like Black 2 better than Black 1 SB, and Grey better still with my SBSS. I do actually like the OG Black LeLoo with it also, but I have wondered about the not so Black gen 2 for it. I don’t want to start collecting LeLoos though, so I’m staying away from them a bit.
 
Something I thought of a couple of days ago:

Which band have you got that you like way more than you thought you would? I wore Cocoa on Thursday after buying it for a good price just for completeness, and I quite liked it.
I just got HT/NG this morning as you saw in the pic, and I knew I’d like it but man... this one tops hyper grape any day. It’s the single best Nike SL I’ve ever seen.
 
I have a couple of multi-color Phillips Hue lights installed in my room. Today I got papaya, and when I opened it, I couldn’t tell the difference between that one and Vitamin C. My lights were configured to a warm setting, but then I noticed that if I change the light to a colder setting the difference is way more noticeable. Furthermore, the more blue the light, the more Vitamin C glows and papaya gets dark. I wonder if this has to do only with the undertone of each band or the material is actually different 🤔

I’ve been trying to find a black one, but $26 just isn’t something I could pass up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I had a $25 bid on that one but it ended on my work shift so I couldn’t bid up if someone else “found” it. You found it! It was at .99 for days, I had hope, but it was slashed.

All the more reason to wear Vitamin C to the next rave party!

Actually this got me curious, so I looked down at my wrist and saw Hyper Turq/Neptune glowing in the light, so I pulled out my other loops...

Product Red G1 has a wild side, who would’ve thought!

This would make a good guessing game..

I really have no idea how it will all play out with the yarn and the lugs and the sizing and unrelated FUD, but in itself I can’t get over how perfect the Braid is.

Definitely creates a new class that is Dressy+Impervious+Sports+Sleep

I think it marries textile and the cosmos in a way that leather can only dream electric dreams of...

I don’t like you. LOL.

Man I’ve been trying to find a storm gray leather since I returned it back in 2016 due to income reasons.



Please tell me your secrets. But I want the box also and I’m sure you didn’t get the box at that price.

The secret? Patience.

No box... but I really don’t care about boxes much.
 
The new Black Blue/Mango is really, really dark! I love it. Also loving my very first Nike AW. It's gonna be hard to give up those Nike watch faces when I'll upgrade to a SS model!

Hi - have to agree about this watch band, absolutely love it! Can I ask which Nike Watch face colour you picked? I can’t get one to match exactly? Did you use “total orange”?

Has anyone posted a comparison of Celestial Teal Nike Sport Loop vs the new Obsidian Mist Nike Sport Loop?

I've been on a bit of a spree recently and need to slim down my "wishlist" a little.

Those two colors are very different. I have an Obsidian Mist on order and I have the Celestial Teal and I absolutely love that one, funny I was wearing it today. Here’s a few photos I just shared yesterday on Show off thread of Celestial Teal as it is the current band I’m wearing in my rotation. Try to give all my bands love evenly lol

Their proximity in the bandbreite colour chart had me wondering otherwise. Looking forward to seeing side by side pics when you get the Obsidian Mist

I just went on the app and totally see what you mean. The Celestial Teal is a true blue and Obsidian Mist is more of a light gray violet with hints of green in it but the app does make them seem similar. It also doesn’t do justice for Celestial Teal as you see in my photos how blue it actually is.
