Any Midnight Blue Sport LOOP out there?

I'm having trouble finding it! Are Sports Loops that are out of print harder to find than Bands?

Still on the lookout for a few Sport Bands: Royal Blue, Blue Orbit/Gamma Blue, & Rose Red.

I’m trying to find one as well, they aren’t easy to find. I just got my hands on Cargo Khaki though.

Thanks, but I already know that, the three I have tried from Amazon haven't worked (they're either the wrong size or they're poorly made, I'm not sure). I'm hoping someone has successfully used one and can send along the item page.

iFixit do some decent ones but I’m not sure they sell the specific one outside of sets.

There's a link to one in the imore article.
 
Well, I really screwed up, tripped and fell into a huge muddy puddle and my Sapphire Classic Buckle was damaged beyond repair... (both colour wise and physically).

As the Sapphire CB is no longer in production, I’ve instead ordered an Electric Blue Classic Buckle (found it sealed on eBay for $159) as it’s replacement, look forward to it arriving in the next few days, I’ll update here with pictures and I’ll make sure to take better care of it!

I think my blue one is sapphire, and I never wear it. Let me know if you are interested. I’m traveling now but will be home this weekend. Oh, it’s 42mm.

Picked up pacific green for my S3. This is my first sport band from Apple when I saw this color I knew I had to get it. I absolutely love it.

Thanks for your offer, but with my Electric Blue actually here now, I like it even better than Sapphire. It’s much brighter and more fun, like an Easter Blue, Sapphire was noticeably darker, like a leather version of Blue Horizon.

The texture of the leather is definitely different - it’s thicker and a bit more stiff (think generation 3 Classic Buckle) than my Sapphire was when new, which is a good thing in my opinion, it should break in nicely

Also matches my iPad Pro Sleeve/Smart Cover

On a seperate topic, I think the Classic Buckles all fit the S4 perfectly - no imperfections, misfits or signs of it looking “off”, and it still by far remains my preferred leather strap - really hope Apple brings it back soon. Even if they are trying to redesign it somehow for the S4, shouldn’t take too long really

ughhhhhhh that color is so so good. I have one of the second gen (3rd gen?) saddle brown buckles and I've just never found it to fit all that well, which keeps me from buying any of the other ones. But I really really love the electric blue.
 
Does anyone know if the 44mm Product Red sport band is a different shade than the 2nd generation?
 
Hello there, I got a few questions ;)

1. Which one is the original blue sportsband from 2015 - mlda2ch/a or mj4j2zm/a ?

2. I need a new Product Red sportsband, switched from Series 0 42mm to Series 4 40mm, can someone post pics Product Red 1 vs. Product Red 3 sidebyside?

3. Who owns a black SS watch and uses Pollen, Lemonade or Mellow Yellow sportband?

Thanks a lot.
