Either new apple face option or a glitch in the matrix, as I haven’t been able to make it stick, prob need another reboot and burn some sage:

Taupe face option:

so are there two alaskan blue faces
Two faces called Alaskan Blue, for now. I guess I should do an A/B. Maybe apple does copy and paste design like me.

Usually Apple doesn’t make a new face if they don’t need to, but they like pushing fall colors more than spring, and maybe this is also meant to pick up the slumping and derided FineWoven SKUs

Got back to my phone and the Alaskan Blue from fall 2019 is gone!

Yeah the yellow in my pic is a Canary pre-production sample that was made without the orange tint the retail one has, and honestly I enjoy it way more.

Still haven't seen a good green sport loop, though. I want an Australia loop without the yellow.

Nice! Would love to own that pre-production colour sample in the collection. How did you acquire it, if you don't mind me asking?

I would have expected for Apple to release Sport Loops in the primary colours by now but alas. Papaya/Red (1st generation) and Spicy Orange are some of my daily favourites, missing a vibrant electric blue (not a fan of the Nike version) and deep purple/violet in Sport Loop format.
