Woot this weekend is back with a massive sale on Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop bands for Apple Watch, with as much as 70 percent off these accessories.

You can get the Solo Loop for just $14.99 ($34 off) and the Braided Solo Loop for $29.99 ($69 off). All bands in this sale are in brand new condition and come with a one-year Apple limited warranty, and they will all be compatible with the new Apple Watch Series 11.



Shoppers should note that this sale is focused on colors of the Braided Solo Loop and Solo Loop that Apple has stopped selling, and it doesn't include any of the new band colors. That being said, all of the bands in this sale are in new condition.

The entire sale is focused on Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop Apple Watch bands, so you'll need to know the size that works best for you before you buy. Apple has a measurement tool on its website that you can use to determine your exact size.

I’ve bought multiple bands through this exact sale throughout the year 🤣

Tbf they did briefly do a solo grab bag where you’d get a random set of two colors for $20 earlier this year though, so they did change it up for a month

Evidently I am in the minority here because I have bought several of the braided solo over the last few $29 sales. I think it’s a fantastic band and it fits perfectly. I can easily clean it and kind of side-stretch it back into place if it feels too stretched out. It’s super lightweight and it doesn’t have any annoying bumps (like the one that that original one has.)

Consider considering Apple sells a piece of cloth for $20, there’s no way you’d ever see something like this at their stores for $29 but I do think that is a fair price…

I purchased a solo loop last time from this sale. I wore it for about a week and started to experience itchiness and a rash. I used to use a sports band before using my Alpine one with the AWU1, but I guess 2 years of not using silicone really spoiled my wrist with airflow. Nevertheless, I switched back to my Alpine band and it healed. I am just sharing in case anyone else is thinking of doing the same with switching up after spoiling their own wrists.

They are always out of my size. Right in the middle, 5. I managed to snag one only once. This is the price Apple should charge for these. Way overpriced at full retail.

bought a black solo loop a while back just to have. been using it on the free ultra 3 I got (very long story). the free watch came with the bright blue ultra band, and I switched out to the solo loop until I can go to the Apple Store and find something I like better. I like the neutral looking blue black ultra band but can’t find it anywhere except for places I'm afraid to risk fakes, like eBay or amazon. the solo loop holds the ultra ok but I think it is a tad heavy for the band. like if I shake my wrist the weight of the ultra will pop the little bone that pokes out.
 
I miss the real leather bands. They were prefect for me and I was lucky to get a replacement online after Apple discontinued and my original one started to fall apart from 3 years of constant use.
I tried the faux version but it gave me a rash so it doesn't behave the same as true leather.
I went onto the Woot website. I couldn't find instructions on how to decide which size would fit. Thats kinda crazy. Plus they only had the largest sizes available.
The other issue I have is that they are made with polyester. That won't help the skin breath and I'm bound to get a rash especially if sleeping with it on during the night.

I've always had that issue with anything that doesn't let my skin breathe. So from this sale, only braided loops are of any interest to me.

Bought a bunch of Braided Solo Size 8 last time.. lost 25# and now they sit..

Wouldn't expect a wrist size to change significantly for a 25 pound weight loss (assuming you're not some 130 pound woman). 50+ pounds you start to see that much more.

I'm thinking I was on the edge previously, the 25# tipped the scales as it were..
 
Isn’t this the same sale that’s been going on for months? They are still out of all the sizes I would want.
 
I found the Solo Loop pretty miserable and returned it to Woot. Uncomfortable, non-breathable, unadjustable, and overpriced even at the discounted price for the low value. I tried a few non-Apple sport loop bands on Amazon and all were less expensive, more useful, and far more comfortable.
 
Last year I bought few braided ones from TK Maxx for €10 each an still haven't opened them lol

Braided solo loops are my absolute favorite. I just upgraded from a 41 mm S9 to 42 mm S11, and find that the S11 is just enough bigger than the S9 that my size 5 bands are too large (I think I was right on the edge between size 4 and 5, especially since I’ve lost about 20 lbs). Obviously, I knew the bands weren’t adjustable when I bought them, but it’s still a little sad that I can’t use any of the six I have. Planning to list them on Mercari soon, then I can justify buying a few, possibly also on Mercari, since full Apple price is pretty ridiculous. Of course, I don’t see any size 4s on Woot that I like now; maybe they’ll restock in the future.
 
Like most people, most of my size are gone (5). They had a few in colors I'm not sure I'd love even at a big discount lol
