I had a feeling we would get it given the white leather came the first spring after the launch back in 2015-2016.
True so it will probably only be here for this season. I wish they would have released a storm gray leather link I would have all over that thing sooo fast!

White leather link - enticing but i know that thing will dirty up fast

I have the white leather loop and it’s been relatively good at staying clean.

These would be my picks from this season, based on colours I don’t yet have:

Also considering Capri if its close enough to Royal Blue (missed) and Mallard Green if its not too black

❌Tomales, Pistachio, Cantaloupe solo loops
❌Chalk Leather Link

and just now
❌Electric Orange, Pistachio Braided

hoping for deals on the non-exclusives
I’ll wait until I can get Pistachio on eBay or something. Not a huge Solo fan and I have a braided on the way for the first time. We’ll see how I like it

The $0 spend on Nike sport loops was my rationalization to just stay complete on braids. And I don’t know if I want to stay complete on apple sport loops. Over my disappointment about no yellow braid.

Maaaaybe they’ve left room for pride braid or summer braids.

I will 100% fork over $100 for a braided pride, RIGHT NOW. I don’t think I have an option as a member of the LGBTQ community. :p

To add, Apple is already getting another $1100 from me on the 30th for that 12.9” Pro. So here, Tim just take my credit card already. Thanks.
 
Nah, Delft is darker. Closer to Royal maybe?
I’m assuming it’s gonna be royal but with the depth and glow of surf. Royal and delft are flat and powdery. Hoping Capri is the more rubbery feel. Also can’t wait to see how much yellow/warmth cantaloupe has compared to grapefruit. It could be a sleeper chameleon.
 
I just saw this post on Twitter. I am a sport loop fan and I would like this, especially if it had the gradient lug as pictured.

This is exactly where I expect Capri to land as well.

It‘s gonna slot in between Grapefruit and Flamingo for sure. I‘m not sure if that gap is big enough (for me to keep it). I love both of those earlier bands a lot, though. And unlike those earlier bands it‘s an über-comfy Solo Loop ...

Edit: This speculating is almost more fun than finally getting the new bands. Almost. 😉
 
Baltic Blue Leather Link has been removed from the Apple Watch Studio but is still available in the actual store... weird.
 
The Mallard Green is intriuging to me. I love blue and have many shades but nothing like the mallard. Hoping to see real life pics soon but if I were to grab one of the new bands I’d grab that one.
 
Placed my order for a sunflower sport loop. Very excited about that particular yellow. I would love to try the sea salt, but I would get that band dirty so quickly...

My sentiments exactly. Sea Salt was the first of the new loops to catch my eye but the dirt factor prevented me from hitting Add to Cart. I'm afraid it'd get filthy just putting it on...
Does anyone have a picture of how the now discontinued Cream sport loop has held up after 6 months? Might be a good indicator of how Sea Salt will wear.
