I buy the M/L as I have a similar sized wrist. The wrap around isn't too much and it feels secure. The S/M was less comfortable.
Got a tip for us?

Hi, I do ... they are close in color when inside but different when outside. Lighting is everything with these colors (Atlantic blue on left in both pics; Abyss Blue on right in both pics):

My northern blue and clover solo loops are here!
Don’t know why but they seem tighter than the one I got last year even though they’re the same size. I can feel mild pressure from the sensor on the back. Do they stretch out at all or should I go a size up?

I mean…do your old ones feel, now, like they used to? Also: that contour face is giving me env7
I returned the old one soon after I got them a year ago… I know the braided solo loops stretch, just not sure about the solos (I heard they snap though lol)
The contour face really shows off the newer bigger display!
THANK YOU so much for your comments and photos. Very helpful. I was concerned they'd be real close, but they're different enough I think to warrant a purchase. Much appreciated!
Out of the blue: based on prevoius years, when can we expect the winter 2021 collection to pop up?
There will very likely not be a winter collection because they didn’t leak new colors in the OS slash they kinda dropped them all in the fall it feels like, no?
Mostly just feeling burned by Olive/Cloud Blue/Electric orange goo bands being cancelled from summer. Also the new color picker retconned a lot of older winter bands into the fall groups?
But last year it was November 10, 2020. Series 5 was November 13, 2019. Series 4 was November 29, 2018.
But I guess if they have a surprise for us, they would probably come from the sport loops. Probably not Forest Green, but I could see Pink Pomelo, Tan (brown stripe), and who knows maybe Maize or some heretofore unseen yellow? Or maybe lighter Abyss Blue, that nice purply accent on the Moss sport loop.

I’m soooo happy right now!! Finally received the band I’ve been searching for ever since I returned it in April 2016.
I was browsing chargerstore one day two weeks ago and saw this, freaked out and immediately bought it cause it came with the box. It was sealed brand new. I’m in band heaven right now.

The more I wear colors like yellow, green, blue, the less I understand why Apple doesn't at least occasionally have a sports band with such intense colors on offer. That's such a pity.
Agree. I love love love bright colors. The muted shades of the same color that are barely, slightly different really do not do it for me.
😟 Rats, I’ll be disappointed if there are none. I have waffled a lot over what color AW7 to get and after cancelling my Nike starlight order, I’m leaning toward blue. It just appeals to me at a gut level and starlight doesn’t. But I don’t like the moss/abyss sport loop. Even though generally I dislike the half and half stripe, I’m wishing now that I’d bought this summer’s Greece band...I think it would look great with the blue AW7. In fact a couple of the international bands would have gone well with the blue. It’s just unfortunate timing.

They’re extremely similar. Smoke Gray (left) adds a bit of taupe and darkness, not much. LED lighting here.

Obsidian/Black Nike sports band is my go-to.
I’d say these are 3 solid additions to the collection!
Baby that flak, he’s a shiner! Glad to see the woven nylon is brand new, the listing made me wonder because it was off center in its holder.I’d say these are 3 solid additions to the collection!
I'd say that Smoke Gray looks a tiny bit darker than Stone but they do look quite similar.

Leather Loop Retrospective — Basic Apple Guy
The Leather Loop debuted with the Apple Watch when it was released on April 24, 2015. With rumours that a new Leather Loop redesign may soon take its place, I wanted to take a moment and present a short retrospective on the Leather Loop.
basicappleguy.com
I've found the page very useful as I'm buying a couple more leather loops since they're no longer going to make any new ones and the few currently on sale are the last available.
I think leather loop is a really smart watch band and very comfortable.
eBay might be your best option if you're trying to find a leather loop from a longtime ago.
