Apple Watch band and iPhone case maker BandWerk today unveiled a series of luxury leather headbands for Apple Vision Pro – the first third-party options of their kind for the device.

The headbands come in five different color options, including gray, brown and white, cream, beige and gray, and orange and gray. They will be made of Italian leather and crafted in Germany, accompanied by a colour-matching fabric Light Seal.

Apple will seemingly not offer Vision Pro in different color options, nor will the company offer multiple headbands, meaning that third-party accessories will be the only way to achieve a more unique look with the device.

The headbands currently only exist as a concept, but BandWerk says that it plans to offer the headbands in early 2024 when Vision Pro launches. BandWerk notes that the product is still in development, so minor design details may yet change before it goes on sale. BandWerk says that the leather headbands will retail for $159 in the United States and £129 in the United Kingdom.

Honestly, I feel like I just jumped a decade ahead and I am in some future sci-fi existence. I for one am looking forward to the coming oppression of our artificial intelligence (machine learning) overlords and I am all in for finally being act like Iron Man with AR.

I think they will, eventually. I reckon they're saving those customisations for the later consumer version "for the rest of us".

The Pro model is usually more restrained in terms of product colours, and colourways offered for official accessories.

Posted this elsewhere so apologies for the duplication but, won’t this thing start to stink after hours of sweat, oil, and, dare I speculate, other things seep into the fabric?
how do you clean or refresh this thing?

Going on the record in support of the AI takeover, so when it happens, it'll (hopefully) spare your life? I see what you're doing. Smart. ;)

I started at $3,800 with taxes, now I'm pushing $4k+ with accessories. Lol.

I get it: version 1 isn't for everyone. Lol. Just wait until version 3 or 4 in 2027/2028.

Yet if we look at world politics, it seems more like the stone age.

Imagine you let your girlfriend borrow the Apple Vision and there’s makeup around it everywhere. How do you clean that off? Apple Polishing Cloth?
