Every Apple Watch band Apple released. Ever.

[DoubleFlyaway]

Same! I basically bought USA just to have for July 4th.

I’m Olympics-obsessed—I will definitely be wearing mine all Olympics. Heck I made my own USA one out of Capri and red for Olympic trials this weekend.

I really hope Sha’Carri rocks her Capri hair at some point 🙌🏽. Praying Apple TV gets the 4K feed on YouTube TV

Got information from an Apple online chat that stores will only be carrying their own countries band. No ETA on restock.

Ugh. Had a second look and ordered USA, Canada, Spain and Sweden.

Preparing to Ship! So Tim does remember how to do an instant band drop 😉

Not much love for these loops in UK so far. Plenty of stock available with expected delivery dates as soon as 3rd July. USA delivery slipped to 30 July onwards.

Yup! My USAs, DEN, SWE, JPN, MEX, and CAD have all charged as well and are prepping to ship. Only the back ordered ones, NZ x2 and Netherlands, haven’t. They’ll be here late next month/early August.

I find it funny the first band to sell out in the US was GBR and the first to back order in the UK is the USA.

I am too, especially with track! Of course I cheer for the US but Jamaica is a huge fave of mine too so I was so excited to see that loop. There is a brand of beaded bracelets called Artiken that is popular with runners and they do flag designs - and Jamaica comes out in a few weeks! It will look great with this matching band.

Had NZ and GER in my cart and got busy. Oops

Ugh. I can't believe they released 22 new sport loops.
I don't collect them all, but there are several that I like a lot.
My wallet is saying "don't do it"!!

 

[staggerlee41]

Am I the only one that finds the US band to be just…not quite right? Seems like the red and blue parts of the band should be switched. That prominent blue stripe with the small red accent does not make me think of the US flag…

I thought the same about the US band. Arguably, the UK band looks more US than the US band. Guess I will add the US band for obvious reasons.

Speaking of bands "consistency", I have a pretty small OEM bands collection (less than 20), and these are the SB I purchaised in 2021: Delft Blue, Mallard Green, Pollen and Spearmint.
I do have noticed that they feel very different from each other: Pollen and Spearmint are pretty soft, velvety, heavy on the wrist, while Delft and Mallard are light, stiff, not velvety to the touch. I don't know if that depends of the production year (Pollen is older, Mallard is the newest collection) or, more likely, to the "tone": lighter colours feels softer and overall nicer, that's the pattern I've noticed. The white SB I received with my silver SS S5 is soft and velvety as well.
I'd like to ask if someone else has noticed this, and if some of the new, darker bands (like deep navy) feels the same way compared to some of the new light shades (like cantaloupe).
I do prefer the feel of the light colours, and it's a shame because I really like the deep, darker shades too. They just don't feel just as nice on the wrist, I don't know why.

I have definitely noticed this, too. Dark colors seem “stiffer“. Light colors, softer, more flexible.

Listen to your heart, not your wallet. Do it!

All 22 sport loops still widely available in Australian Apple Store.

I'm not sure if I would wear any of them after the Olympics are finished in a month lol

No ETA on restock.

Apple store App in China shows most for delivery on the 2nd...

USA shows delivery 29th July - 5th August. Germany and France the same. GB can't be added to cart (glad I jumped in early!!) but shows the same date.

My waking nightmare is that it’s via Deliver-It and when they abandon one of the boxes holding untold Tokyo loops like they did with my Jumping, there won’t be replacement stock from Support

 

[Sal09]

If any members from US wants GBR Loop. I can help them post it to you all at cost. I can buy them at discount for £44.40 (RRP £49.00). Plus whatever the postage unless you can arrange your own postage. Shipping estimate via Royal Mail for small 200g parcel tracked and signed (insured upto £50) comes to £15.00 but actual could be more or less. Plus Paypal fee.
I hope moderate do not penalise me for this post as i am not selling anything.

 

[kobezzz]

I would be curious to know if anyone take more than 5!
@athousandbands are you on that number?

 

[firewire9000]

Yesterday I bought the Jamaican one because I love the colors and it’s already shipped.

 

[ionasdf]

I thought my small collection of sport loops was ready (apart from the unobtanium that is an affordable unused Hyper Grape, which I am expecting to find approximately never) and now Apple drops this FOMO on my head. So. Many. Tempting. Bands. Being proud member of 40 mm gang everything is available still too.

Many of them clash a bit too much with my SG Alu though, but I’m excited to see how all of you with lighter and especially ceramic watches rock them.
