They always have gone with a Red version of cases at launch, so I am really surprised that we did not get offered one yet? Any knowledge or thoughts?

I'm watching for this as well. I was going to hold off on ordering any sport band until I saw that one, but did go ahead and order a black sport band earlier this week.
 
This.

I check the Apple Store daily looking for a red band. Sport or Leather Loop, I'm down for either one.
 
Originally pre-ordered SS black sport band, but decided hours later at my April 10th try-on that I'd prefer to wait longer for what I really wanted, so I changed my order to the blue leather loop (June). This means I won't be enjoying my :apple:watch at the gym until I can buy that comfy, sweat resistant sport band in product red.
 
Would love to see a red rubber strap as well! Any confirmation on this?

None yet. For all we know, all of the special colors at the Milan event could have been one-offs. Red seems like a likely color for Apple to make, though. Maybe they're just working through a deal with the Product Red group.
 
Still no updates that I've seen. Anyone else ever see anything about a release for a Red Sports Band? I'm really looking forward to buying one.

I really think if or when Apple release new sports band (or other band) colours, it will be front page news on most sites including this one. I wouldn't waste my time checking the Apple Store daily.

My money's is it'll be covered on the iPhone launch 'some exciting news'
 
I would buy a red sport band. I don't trust Apple's quality when it comes to leather products. I've had too many leather iPad and iPhone covers that look great for a while, but slowly the adhesives start breaking down and the things fall apart. I would hate to spend a lot of money on a leather loop only to have it be a leather piece of trash in a year.
 
Went to the Apple Store today, was going to pickup a blue or green band. Couldn't do it, I want the red one:).
