Posting my (probable) Cloud Blue prototype with the hope that Tim isn’t done raining accessories today. Winter drop came about this time of day.

Question time once again.

What shade of pink is Electric Pink sport loop? Hibiscus? Also is the middle part of it purple under gray threads? Having hard time figuring that band out from pictures.

Spearmint and DF sport loops, what does the middle part look close up? They look like they have an X kinda pattern.

Hibiscus is the closest comparison, yes. It’s a brighter hibiscus. Looks more midnight blue underneath to me. Not too far off from the first midnight blue loop from the same era, just more blue under there than the midnight loop. But maybe I’m biased by the nylon they did with pink and midnight.

I’ve always seen the series 4 sport loops as being “checks and flecks” but diamond works too, I guess.

I guess I change my mind on what I earlier said, I now think Summer 2021 bands are not coming.

On the Watch Bands page, at the top where there’s promotional artwork of the current season, it’s just been updated to showcase the international collection as shown below, and also since my last post, the “NEW” tags have been removed on the most recent Spring Sport Bands and Loops. These are both pretty big giveaways that a “season” has passed and that we are not getting the likes of a Sunflower, Cloud Blue or Electric Orange Sport Bands, and that the International Collection was released in lieu of them. Also the fact that September and its associated Apple event now arent that far away from us with 2 short months to go

Yeah I think the moment the Internationals arrived, that sealed the fate of any further summer bands. They wouldn’t have wanted to take potential sales away from these.

Yeah like I do think it’s a pity. Sunflower, Electric Orange and Cloud Blue in my opinion are a much nicer Summer collection than last years Linen Blue, Vitamin C and Seafoam, but also, Olympics are a once in four years thing, Apple I guess wanted to try something new.

Also, in the german Apple Store 7 of the 44 size international bands are sold out (China, Japan, France, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, South Korea), but 6 of them can be ordered in combination with a Watch … which is kinda f*ed up. Only New Zealand is completely unavailable.
 
In Italy Apple Store: 44 🇯🇵 , 44 🇳🇿 are sold out; but 44 🇫🇷, 44 🇮🇹 , 44 🇰🇷 are available but not payable with Apple Pay

Any suggestions for a face color for the World Indigo/Lime Blast band? I'm not finding anything the looks like a good matching color. This band changing so much with different lighting (as do all the bands). Thanks

 
In Brazil, all of these 44mm are listed as "currently unavailable":
- Italy
- New Zealand
- USA
- Germany
- Greece
- Netherlands
- South Africa
- Great Britain
 
My new Nike Ironstone/black on the SBTI6. Darkens slightly indoors. I wear Khakis quite a bit and it goes perfectly. The genuine Apple Nike are so much better made , heavier duty than the thin knock offs I have.
yup.. the ironstone/black is a good one!
I like it a lot with the golden stainless steel s5
