New Nike Apple Watch Bands Now Available for Purchase [Updated]

I really like the dark blue one, but for summer I might chose a white band. I'm afraid a dark band would attract more sun light and become hot, that's the reason why I avoid black t-shirts so I may go for the platinum version

$ 49 for a piece of silicone !!! There are really people who buy that?

Yes they're expensive. That's the reason why I haven't bought one yet. For $30 I'd buy it instantly.

Keep telling yourself that and you might be able to convince yourself that you made a wise and educated purchase. I mean just look at how many patents Apple holds on injection molding silicone rubber.

I don't need to be convinced, I've owned both and can speak from experience. I am sorry that the cost of the real one is prohibitive for you.

Looking at the below pic, I assumed the last colour on the right, would be Midnight Blue (to match the dark blue running shoe).......

...but sadly, it is NOT Its actually Obsidian/Black or Anthracite/Black, as stated here:

...no Midnight Blue at all - unless I have misunderstood the above?!

EDIT - Ok, looks like I did misunderstand slightly as "Obsidian"is actually a kind of dark blue colour!

Thanks for pointing that out! Was able to get the band my mom wanted.

Last week, Nike announced plans to release four new Nike+ Apple Watch bands in colors that match its line of Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit "Day to Night" shoes, and those watch bands are available for purchase as of today.

The new bands are available in four shades of pink and blue "inspired by the shade of the sky, from dawn to dusk," and each one matches a Flyknit shoe. Nike has offered Nike+ bands since the Nike+ Apple Watch debuted in 2016, but this is the first time the company has made an effort to introduce bands that match its shoes.

Nike's new Apple Watch bands are made of the same flexible fluoroelastomer material that's used for Apple's line of Sport bands, but Nike bands add perforations for ventilation purposes.

The bands are available from the Nike website for $49 each, and starting today, select Nike stores will also begin carrying them. Apple plans to start offering the new Nike+ bands in stores, from authorized retailers, and in specialty department stores in "early June."

Nike's matching Flyknit running shoes are also available starting today for $190.

Update: Many of the new Nike+ bands and Flyknit shoes have already sold out.

Hopefully red or product red color will be produced in the future as red is more awesome color than any other available colors for Nike+ bands.
