Nike Ironstone shipped and arrives tomorrow. Glad they’re all finally getting out because I really am not fond of most of the colors at the moment, but that usually changes when I see real life photos of some of them.
 
Anyone notice that watchOS 7.4 has a Cloud Blue color option for watch faces? That has never been a released color right? Maybe that would have corresponded to that light blue case color we saw in the leaks and it didn’t make the cut at the last minute for some reason. Alternatively, maybe it’s coming this summer.

Or it could be a summer 2021 color.
 
Abyss, Electric Orange, Sea Salt, all grabbing coveted spots in the color wheel.

Obviously not unprecedented for sport loops to get a slot without becoming a sport band but the presence of Electric Orange seems to presage the first Braided Solo Loop➡️Goo Band crossover, based on that burnt orange case leak we saw.

Edit: here’s cloud blue face with my mystery 40mm band, unedited

they prob deemed it already covered by others. Like how they didn’t bother with nectarine because of apricot. You may have noticed Apple has done a lot of blues
I see an “abyss” which is a shade of blue, wondering if that’s what you’d use if you got capri but it seems A bit darker
 
Just got a text from Apple that my order shipped. I was hoping all of them may have but nope. Luckily Chlorine Blue/Green Glow has shipped, but Hasta/Light Silver and Ironstone/Black are still Preparing to Ship.

EDIT: 30 mins later and Hasta has shipped as well. Chlorine is due Wednesday and Hasta Thursday. Come on Ironstone!

EDIT 2: Another hour has past and Ironstone has shipped as well! Due for delivery Thursday as well. Very excited! Bring on Chlorine!

Ok, I was sceptical, probably because of the disappointing no-show of Amethyst, but my bands have come in and I‘ll probably keep all of them. Partly because I‘m a sucker for Solo Loops in general, but mostly because the new colours are lovely and summery.

Capri just glows. W-O-W. (left: Surf, right: Royal)

Cantaloupe is a very bright orange. I love orange. (left: Grapefruit, right: Flamingo, top: Kumquat)

Pistachio lives up to its name, too. So very, very nice. (left: Beryl, right: Spearmint, top: Mint)

Now Tomales is super-close to Linen. As I prefer Solo Loops, I‘ll probably sell the latter.

Very nice! How does Capri compare to Delft?
