I’m looking forward to the khaki the most. Beryl looks like marine green and pomegranate is like a pink-red blend, so am slightly curious about it.

Ordered all 3 and will get it Friday! (I only collect sport bands haha)
 
Seen them on the apple site, pomegranate isn’t too far from the rose red of legend, and beryl a little more washed out when compared with marine green. Khaki is only what I imagined ... nothing more.
I am going with Rose Red and Dragonfruit had a baby for Pomegranate.
I think in some lights it will appear red and other pink.

I need the new Product Red sport loop!
Just click!
 
New watch bands! Sport bands in pomegranate, beryl, and khaki, and new two-toned product red sport loop.
Very happy to see new bands. Weird that MacRumors hasn't put this up as a story (I know the MacBook Pro news overshadows this, but both can fit on the site). So far I'm finding these colors... probably avoidable - none of them really grab me. May feel different once I see them in person.
  • Beryl and Khaki are not the greens we were looking for (the former looks like it fits in their "white with one or two drops of color" line, the latter is just about the most brownish green possible).
  • Pomegranate might be great in person, but online it doesn't look like it'll win me over from DragonFruit.
  • Rather than a two-tone Product Red Sport Loop, I wish they had done a (one-tone) Product Red Nike Sport Band.
 
Khaki seems to be a real Dark Olive. I don't know if that excites me or not.

Still waiting for the Nike bands to drop. If that rumored Orange Nike comes out... My money will go there for sure.

It looks like the Nike Cargo Khaki band, of a year or so back, minus the holes.

Do the Nike bands get announced separately? I thought I recalled them normally all arriving at the party together.

What is this orange Nike band you speak of? Any idea of what it might look like and anticipated release? I’m sort of addicted to orange bands. 😬
 
Pomegranate seems to slot in between Hibiscus and Dragonfruit; looks quite nice. Beryl is too light for me and I never really liked Khaki, although Nike Cargo Khaki was pretty great. The new one looks more brownish, though.

P.S. I never thought we‘d get 2 new „greens“ at once ... and I buy neither. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nike bands traditionally only get announced for the Spring and Fall releases. Probably won’t see new ones until next Spring

From last year.

11/16 as a Nike exclusive and 11/30 at the Apple store. Hoping this happens again.

Apple generally doesn't release any new Nike watch bands in October. AFAIK Apple only introduces new Nike watch bands in March and September (and maybe June?). Nike might introduce an Apple Watch Nike model with an orange band later this year, but it's usually bundled with the watch and the standalone band would only be available later next year.
 
Usually the WatchOS for the Nike Watches have face colors for bands that are not yet released. The linked post shows the face colors found in the OS, but not yet released as bands.

Total Orange supposedly found in the OS months ago.. and wishful thinking.

Those were last Fall’s bands, you’re strengthening my point.
Did you happen to see the date of the release of those bands in his link? Friday, Nov 16, 2018. Based off of past releases I’d expect Nike bands in those watch face colors found in WatchOS this week or next.

Did you happen to know that Nov 16th is in the Fall season? They already released their colors this Fall with Apple's release back in September. They have never had two releases in the same season dating back to the very beginning. I have ever Nike sport band and loop, and it hasn't happened. That doesn't necessarily mean that it won't, but there is no evidence to expect another release this calendar year.
