for sure. The 38mm felt too small for me originally, so I went 42mm but I’d rather have a 40mm than the 44mm with the newest ones. Unfortunately, that would mean switching my entire collection of bands so I’ll probably wind up with the 44 some day instead

In the current chart of ‘every band ever released’ where would Spearmint come? Would it come after mint, or before Marine Green?
 
I am trying to get every sport band I’m missing but there are some colors that really seem hard to come by, so I think this may be worth a shot. Does anyone have a spare/is willing to sell these colors in the 38/40mm version?

- Rose Red
- Light Pink
- Spicy Orange
- Dark Olive
- Sky Blue

I’m willing to pay way more than their price tag.

Thanks in advance!

P.s. I hope this is the right place to post this kind of request.

For those of you wondering, I got the chance to compare blue horizon and blue cobalt. They are virtually the same.. here is a picture under direct bright light. Blue horizon on the left. Its just a tad more “vibrant” in color than cobalt. I like cobalt better!

My husband bought me three 42mm Nike bands for Christmas that I haven't even opened yet. Not sure if I will like the look with the holes. Any opinions on how you like the Nike bands vs the sports bands?

Personally I love the Nike sport bands. I have 4 and wear all of them frequently. They definitely breathe better when working out. Way less sweaty underneath and I think they look great even in a professional setting (I’m a physician and wear slacks, shirt, tie and white lab coat daily).

Has anyone noticed on the reflective loops, that they start to lose their shiny ness’?

I just opened another hyper grape and when compared, my one month old hyper grape had almost 50% less reflectiveness..

I'm curious if washing it will have any impact on the reflectivity of the band. I know that after having worn multiple sport loops for a few weeks, they have darkened. Even if ever so slightly I notice it. Washing it has done the trick but I didn't really notice this reflectivity situation you've described.

So I just compared a new, unworn Celestial Teal to a worn and once washed Hyper Grape. They look pretty similar to me. Lots of variables here between yours and mine: 2 different sized and colored bands, different production dates to name a few.

Looking at your photo, it appears the areas with less reflectivity may be the areas that come more into contact with your skin, maybe I'm wrong?

I also compared an old Nike black reflective loop to a new hyper grape loop and they look similar if not identical in terms of reflectiveness. Maybe it does have to do with what’s coming in contact with your skin or how your skin interacts with the band. Everyone’s skin will be different (more or less acidic, etc...) which may be affecting the band?

Thanks for doing a comparison! Yea in the picture I posted its the side that is hidden when worn but the other side of the band is virtually a mirror of missing reflective “threads”. I did searching and found nobody that had that problem so I have an appointment at the apple store on Friday to show then as this is more than likely a defect.

I cant be the only one with this problem, and I have worn the loop probably for 10 days total in the two months I have had it.
