This is the first time I’ve seen this band accurately photographed. So hard to get the blue to show in pictures.

Best I could do with mine. (Love the flap on the new loops!)

My 80+ band collection consists with a majority of Sport Bands with a healthy side dish of Sport Loops however I've never gelled with the Nike versions. I only have one of their Sport Bands which I use for gym work only as I'm not keen on the holes which seem to make putting the band on harder. That and I tend to wear Adidas!

This picture has really made me want this subtle, for Nike, version. And even more so as I've also just noticed that this year's Nike Sport Loops have the loop lug connector at both ends, unlike standard Apple Sport Loops, and this was always a bugbear of mine particular when wearing with my Ultra 2. This should give it a more balanced look on the wrist similar to the Ultra specific Alpine and Trail Loops. Can anyone post face on wrist shots of an Ultra with 2023 Nike Sport Loops attached to see how they look? Thanks.

I think my collection will grow more towards Sport Loops now as the UK is now also only selling the revised packaged Sport Bands with either S/M or M/L strap sections instead of both. This makes it more difficult to find a yoink, as you would say, as I wear 45mm S/M which seems to be harder to find. Sport Loops only come in one size (XL notwithstanding) so just either 41mm or 45mm.

Yeah I think I have somewhere around 80 or 90 sport bands, but I've been on a real sport loop kick lately. I've grown my collection of loops from like 20 to like 50 with more on the way. They're way comfortable for daily wear.

The new Nike design is pretty fresh and fun compared to the old one, though I will say I miss the reflective weave. Going to be interesting to see how they use it.

I'm up to 19 Sport Loops with the recent addition of the latest 3rd generation Midnight which has remained on my wrist for the last 5 days which I think is a record for me. I want to get Winter Blue too.

I have to eat my words about Sport Bands as I've just had my best yoink which I doubt I will ever better. I found an auction for, what was described as, a Navy Blue band in 45mm S/M but from the pictures it wasn't possible to see the name of the colour so I sent the seller a question but it was only 30 minutes before the end of the auction and didn't get a reply. As it was in the latest packaging and showed a stainless steel pin I gambled on it being the latest Storm Blue colour which matches my iPhone 15 Pro case. I won the auction for, wait for it, £2.20 including postage! I honestly thought the seller would try and back out of the sale but to his credit it arrived today and it was as I thought. I do feel a bit sorry for him as it cost £3.05 to send it! Side note I'm not a fan of the new style packaging.
