man I'm still bummed about the woven nylon bands. I've got most of the ones I wanted by now, but I would love to see new colors for those.

was lowkey hoping for a re-release like how they did with modern buckle.

maybe they will do it in the spring or for the series 6. maybe even bring back the classic buckle 😍

They could always return next September when the new watches release. I just want to see Apple bring back the Classic Buckle too. I hate the current model of "40mm gets Modern Buckle and 44mm gets Leather Loop, tough if you don't like what you're stuck with for leather", well that's ok, my wallet will thank me for saving my money! No but seriously like, Leather Loop is way better, its actually unisex, there's no material lugs, and takes the leather in a different style - I really wish I could try it, but can't as I have 40mm.
 
Anyone with Alaska Blue Sport Band that can share a few pics and maybe compare to older, similar blue bands? Would be much appreciated! :)

Can someone re-upload the high res version of the poster photo that shows ALL of the current Apple official bands? The links in the OP's post are not working for the high res versions.

Also, is there a place to look up the part number or model number of ALL of the official Apple bands? I need to look up the info for all of the older Nylon bands.

I’ll give it a shot, obviously too large to embed, lets see how well iCloud works, I hate how Dropbox just kicks you to the app

Here are some pics of my camel sport loop on my 40mm gold aluminum AW4. None of the new fall bands really appealed to me all that much, but I wanted something neutral-ish to replace my pink sand sport loop, which has always come across as too lavender for my tastes. It’s still a little stiff where it makes the loop through the lug, but I hope that will soften up over time. I would describe the yellow portion as mustard color. Please forgive the random dog hairs, I have two golden retrievers. Shed Happens. 🤷🏻‍♀️

The good news is that I ended up ordering a midnight Blue sport loop...The bad news is it’s attached to a 44mm Ceramic
I was ”forced” to get a midnight blue when I got my ceramic and realized it couldn’t be paired with a sport band and had already gotten the camel

Thanks you, athousandbands. Can you confirm that the size of the image is 25.8MB?
iOS says 27.1 for actual size when I go to upload

If I get a chance tomorrow, I’ll take a photo for you. The best description I can think of is it’s a lighter shade of Ocean Blue (at least to my old eyes). It has a similar hue.

Here’s a photo I previously took of all my blues. Apologies in advance for the lighting - it’s taken under indoor halogen lighting. In more neutral lighting, the bands are all a shade darker.

Blue cobalt is still my favorite! Does anyone have comparisons of gray sport bands? Trying to gauge the difference between fog and light gray from the watch edition. And the gray (2017) versus dark gray (edition)

From L to R

Black (with the SS Pin)
Grey (2017)
Dark Olive
Cocoa
Concrete
Pebble
Fog

Again, unfortunately the lighting isn’t neutral. The true color of all the bands are a shade darker and “cooler” in person (particularly the Fog one)

Thanks! I currently own the grey, concrete, & fog and wanted to compare them to the new titanium edition bands to see if they are any different.

This is great, thanks! As I absolutely love Ocean Blue, it seems I need to get Alaskan as well. :)

impressive picture and very satisfying.... until you also look for sky blue, mist blue and lilac (plus to my eyes pacific green, turquoise and dark teal also are blues!). ;-)
 
Next you'll be hoping for a Philthy Orange for those Phlyers :eek::p
You dont even know how bad I need the Hérmès sport because it’s Flyers orange. I have spicy orange and it’s close enough. I refuse to go down the “orange fruit sport bands” rabbit hole. None of them would ever satsify like the Hérmès that’s basically $200 or whatever the premium is over buying a normal SS and the standalone leather. 😡

I feel your pain. In my case I still await a 44mm S/M Sports Band Hermès Sports Band. I was hoping they’d include it in the new Series 5 😭
