Hmm only the non Black/Gray from Apple shows a tomorrow/Nov 3 deliver date for me.

Black/Gray (any size) still comes up as Nov 17-24
 
My order (Black size L) was due mid November. It has updated and will be coming tomorrow.
 
I’m starting to like the black/grey trail loop.

It’s subtle but the orange tab pops when you see it.

Nike faces need a bright orange to match it though :)

Got a black/grey from Verizon and I love it! the titanium lugs and the soft feel on the wrist. Best band type imo. I always found sport loops too itchy on the wrist side.
 
Lots of positivity about the trail loop. Has anyone been underwhelmed and returned one?
 
Verizon has the M/L gray/black shipment in from Apple. My backordered band that had a Nov 11 ship estimate shipped out today.

If you're still looking here is the link.

Question: I still struggle which size with trail loop. I have between 157 mm and 162mm wrist - better choose trail loop in S/M or M/L? Thanks for your help
165mm wrists. S/M was a great fit once I got it on my wrist, but getting it over my thumb was quite a chore. M/L wraps further around but there's 1.0-1.25" of the lower strap exposed when the strap is snug.

I have 165mm wrists and use a S/M loop. The orange loop on the black trail loop sits perfectly on the bottom of my wrist.

Thanks. I juts placed my order. Got the confirmation email but when trying to check order status I get an error. It says "There is a problem with one of our systems. Please try again later." I'm not a Verizon customer so I placed my order as a guest.

Ordered mine from Verizon today, nice that I had a gift card from an iPad promo I got last year. Can’t wait!
 
I am worried with my grey/blue trail loop, as quite often it seems to be losing part of the fabric material around the bottom attachment, maybe due to friction with my clothes. I think it is not going to age well.

Does anybody have a similar concern?
 
Is there anyone who is wearing one of the new Trail Loops with a previous version Natural Titanium Edition watch?

I am thinking about purchasing a Series 7 Natural Titanium and would like to see how the new titanium lugs of the new Trail Loop bands look on the brushed finish of the Edition versions.

Please post pictures if you have that combo.

Thanks,
J.
 
My knockoff Amazon “Trail Loop”. I like it, good fit for my small wrist, plus it’s comfy. I was surprised it worked for me. I usually return the Amazon bands because of poor fit. This is far from perfect, but the price was right.

I joined the forums cause I was having trouble deciding between a S/M and M/L Trail Loop - I ended up going with a S/M a few days ago, thanks to some help here, and also since it was in stock at my local Apple store.

For reference, my left wrist is 155mm with a clenched fist and 165mm with my hand opened wide. Measuring tape pulled is tightly, right in the center of where the watch/band would be. The attached pics show how loose I have it for daily wear, as well as how tight I cinch it down to not feel any movement while mountain biking.

On a medium Alpine Loop, I'm in slot 3 for activities (bike/hike/ski), 4 for being out and about (general moving around, out of the house), and 5 for sleeping and hanging out at home. With the Ocean Band, I'm on 4-6 for the same respective cases.

Hope that helps someone else!

My Ultra came with the black-gray trail loop. With that color the watch has the subtle look I was looking for. But the tab on the end of the loop was bright orange. A sharpie rendered it black (the tab no longer visually sticks out like a sore thumb).
