Anyone else feeling a little down about the spring 2021 set being MIA?

Yeah it will most likely have the watery shimmer missing in the sport band version like with a few of the fall and winter bands.
Lol I’m not completely sold on the Solo Loop personally. I have one and it fits great but I worry in the summer. The sweat and the fact the skin swells slightly (mine at least does) worries me that come summer I won’t be able to wear it. Personally I picked up a Pink Citrus on eBay for a good deal. In the $50 bracket, for me, the Sport Band is unrivaled.
 
My Apple Watch band collection 2015 - 2020.
(and me wondering all this time: where did my money go? 😊)

Just the Pride 2017 and 2018 woven nylon. I never liked the woven nylons tbh.
*sucks in all the air from the room*
How *DARE* you!

Personally the Nylons are my favorite. They have issues, namely with the holes stretching out but they have all the comfort of the Sport Loop but still look classy to an extent. Not Classic Buckle classy but not bad. Especially the more muted colors.

Agreed, one of the best styles ever. It’s always confused me that the horribly uncomfortable (and fairly cheap looking) sport band is overwhelmingly the most popular while the incredibly comfortable (and quite attractive) woven nylon somehow got the ax.

I love the nylons too! Apple seemed to cut loose a lot more with them, in terms of color---and I kinda think the Chinese New Year one is the best band ever made. (It's certainly the best looking one with a gold SS.)
 
I'm not masochistic enough to look through hundreds of pages of unread thread while I was gone to see if anyone posted this combo, but as I shared with @athousandbands over carrier pigeon today I am really digging this baltic blue leather link on the ceramic (first one I've tried on, though I have the rest waiting for me in Nova Iorque).

YES they were seemingly very easy to play around with color wise. The first two drops were ehh. There were some good colors (Scuba) and some not very good colors (Gold/Royal Blue) but when they brought out the checkerboard and thin stripe versions I fell in love. I have every Check except the white, which was the only one I was kinda ehhh on. The white ones tend to discolor very easily, speaking from experience with my pearl one I returned after purchasing.

Here in another one of those seemingly hard to find pale summer colors: Mist Blue! When I first opened it I thought it was Fog until I put it up against my Fog band and the blue really popped. Pictured on my Titanium S5 in the 97° Phoenix heat. 🥵
