Apple store online is giving a November delivery date for most braided loops in any size and color. Has anyone had luck finding any at apple stores?

I tried one yesterday, ready to buy only to be told 6~8 weeks!! WTF!

one thing I would say is that I measured myself using the download guide before I went into a store and was a size 8.. however in the store the 8 was waaaaayyyy too big and 6 was perfect!

I have a 7" wrist For info

For those of us in the UK and near London, the Covent Garden branch has some availability this morning for in-store pickup of some colours/sizes.

They certainly have stock, but you'll need to call them or go in to see what they have.

Edinburgh had a limited selection in different colours last weekend. Online orders for bands expected in November have arrived this week, so presumably there's more stock in the UK now than there was last week.

I ordered a braided loop from apple online. Said it wouldn't be delivered until November but arrived yesterday! Its too big though and got to go back.

At the same time I ordered a solo loop which said delivery between 25-28 September and its still on processing. Figure that out.

I went into the Apple store in Boca Raton, FL on Monday & they were out of the "middle sizes" but had the lower & higher sizes for 44mm.

I don't know if they will continue to get new stock or how that's allocated if there's outstanding orders online.

(Also out of 44mm Nike but had 40mm).

Interesting. I have a 7" wrist too.

I tried on 6, 7, 8, 9 and I was an 8.

A few of the stores in and around London all ended up with good stock today. More appeared as the day went on, on the app. Ended up ordering a charcoal braided for pick up tomorrow. Much better than waiting 8 weeks via online!

It is interesting that the store stock is not being updated online.

I think it is, though. I'm basing that on the fact that I bought a size 4 that I found online in stock at my local store for pickup, and when I checked a few minutes later, that was no longer an option. I keep checking to see if other sizes will become available. I have a pink on order for delivery who knows when.

Depends on the area I think, here it’s definitely not, all 10 Apple Stores within an hour of here show no stock online for the past few weeks, but they all do actually have stock if you show up.
