For people who keep up with what the latest sold bands are on Apple.com and in stores, is it just me or is this current rotation generally pretty weak overall? I struggle to count with 3 fingers color configs I am ooo'd and ahhhh'd by
It’s a whole hell of a lot of green and very top heavy with Flamingo, Bright Green, and Starlight BSL.

Blue Fog and Eucalyptus are nice but literally forgettable whenever I mentally tally up the bands when the weekly “summer bands?” happens. Mineral not very far behind.

Lemon Zest is nice but derivative. Nectarine, well, we know about Apple and hot oranges.

As much as it hurts to say, the bands aren’t for “us,” but for new watch buyers, right?

That said I consider this the best sport loop set since the beginning of series 5.

Light Lilac and Blue Jay would have been great goo bands.

I'm really digging these nike sport bands, aesthetic and breeziness for the hot summer... quite anemic on them relative to my other types of bands.

what would be a good fourth that goes well with blue watch but later a black one possibly as well (will get a black series upgrade probably if I want to switch it up again when I upgrade )?

Eyeing the

Midnight Turquoise/Aurora Green
Black/Lime Blast
Chlorine Blue/Green Glow

hmmm... open to suggestions

Can’t go wrong with Midnight Turq
 
Yea I like it! It joins the semi samesies bands of Marine/Beryl/SkyBlue - but when they're all together you can tell the differences. :)

Imho Chlorine Blue it's very similar to the Blue Orbit that you already own, but it would certanly work.
How about the Blue Black / Bright Mango? I own a silver case but I'm certain it looks spectacular on the blue aluminum and it could work with the Space Gray / Black as well. And it's a really unique band!

I usually don’t worry too much about matching bands with outfits, but today OG Green was coaling for a specific shirt...
