@stanza.richi how do the magnets connect? as the band shows "mountains" and "grooves" .. do the mountains, when band is closed, fit into the groves of the opposite layer? Or will mountains hit the mountains of the opposite layer?
(holy.. this is sort of strange to describe for my not-so-good english skills =/ )

I hope these two pictures could be better than my bad english 😅

I have to admit that the band is a little bit loose for my habits. Probably, in the end, I still prefer sport loop for every day use. But I think that these leather link are nice and elegant for quite formal occasions.
 
=)) thanks a lot @stanza.richi!
as these replica bands can stand contacting water a lot better, than a real leather strap would, this is a plus imo!
i hope, there will be some replicas in the future, that will close similar to the apple LeLis.
 
=) i wondered about the white material between the colored dots and was not sure, if @ScottC7 s pride sport band and your spruce aura have the same white tone between the colored dots, or if this tonal difference might be related to white balance or light color in that particular situation of the photograph.

Yeah my picture is under just my random harsh light where I put on my shoes and I’m so contorted to get my wrist near my shoes and my foot turned to show the colors, it ends up being a poor band shot. But you’re reading my mind, as I put it on, I was like “why haven’t I done a buddy pic with this and Nike Pride?”

Spruce Aura is very subtle, I liken it to a creamy cilantro dressing, especially on the sport loop lugs. Will post a comparison soon.
 
Sorry mr. double dipper, I’m a one size guy.
That’s Mr. Size Queen to you, sir.

Couldn’t resist hitting the Dick’s Black Friday for a little Laser Crimson love, close enough to Hyper Crimson, not a terrible match for the old Bright Crimson Loop either, confirms that the maker’s mark on the Spruce Aura releases is flash crimson:

Spending $20 above full retail to get a color not sold in the US imported from Taiwan (Bright Mango/Citron Pulse/Black) in a shoe that is more functional than attractively proportioned has to be my rock bottom right? But hey a carbon plate will prob feel good for dog walks!

@ScottC7 is your photo showing that current pride nike sport band? As it is showing a pretty warm white tone compared to @athousandbands contribution, it made me wonder if this is related to the light source or the band itself? Like another production year? 😊
Thanks =)

No mine is spruce aura/vapor green, a very frosty green-white

Yes, it is the current Nike Pride Sport Band released alongside the Series 6. I just snapped it while sitting on the sofa in a not-well-lit environment. I’m guessing that could be affecting the perception of the color of the white part of the band, but having said that, to my eye it looks like a relatively sterile and clean white color, in reality. I really like the white tone and it’s definitely not leaning towards French vanilla, if that helps.
