Woot this week is back with a massive sale on Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop bands for Apple Watch, with prices that match the previous record low Woot deals on these bands.

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.



Woot has reorganized the sale for 2026, with shoppers choosing their size before color this time around. Woot has size 1-12 of the Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop available, but color and style availability varies within each size category.

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.

So the same sale and prices they’ve had going on for the last year or so.

Apple must have made a metric ton of these things.
Are they real? My kids say the ones we got from them are harder to stretch than the ones we got straight from apple.

Glad to hear the deal is back. Got a bright orange months ago for my Starlight Series 8 with this deal. But, now that I have a gold titanium Series 11, bright orange doesn't match it anymore, so time to go shopping for another band.
 
I was gonna laugh at this being posted for like the 10th time... but them changing it to a size first UI made a lot of sense and I was curious so I checked it out (again) and the color selection is slightly better than it was the last few times. I actually ordered a strap in my size and in a color I genuinely want!

7th time was the charm I guess.

Just watch out for the sizing on the braided solo loop. The paper cutout thing on Apple’s site told me size 9. That felt about right when I first got it, but then it stretched out a little and now it’s not snug.

Note to anyone interested.
You shall order the braided solo loop little on the tight side as they will stretch out from wearing them daily.
Meanwhile, the solo loop shall be just fit. They will also stretch out, but not as quick as the braided ones.
I had to order my solo loop 1 size larger than the braided ones.
 
So annoying these deals keep cropping up but only in the USA. I love this style of band but no such deals in the UK!
 
Every time one of these pops up I take a look to see if they have a braided loop in my size.

They've rearranged the page this time so it's a lot easier to filter in a useful way--you now start with wrist, then select watch size and type and then see what's available that you can actually use, instead of having to dig down into every color group only to learn they don't have your size.

And as usual, for those without unusually small or large wrists, nope--if you have a mid-sized wrist, you have two or three very garish colors to choose from. So if your taste doesn't tend toward "bright green" or "bright orange", no luck.

Great prices and decent selection if you have toothpick-wrists or are a sumo wrestler, though.

Maybe they’re defects but within the margin of error represented at those sizes.
Probably, the sizes are different... I use size 8 and some are Ok and other are a little bit short.
I bought a bunch of braided and regular solo, both sizes 38 mm and 45 mm, they all fit the Ultra 2, and I didn't mind the small gaps at both sides on 38 - 41 mm watchbands. The price was better than the amazon/ebay copies.

They had some fire sales before, where you can buy 4 - 5 watchbands and received a 70% off on top of the $29 / $14.99 bands, was like $9 dlls each, also in other sale you paid $20 and received 3 bands.
 
Wow, they actually have some new colors available compared to previous posts of this sale. And they redesigned the selection system a bit, which is nice.

Picked up a couple of fresh braided bands. Only downside is they eventually become a bit loose, but man are they comfy and easy to put on/off.
