Thank you for that! I just ordered the Olive Flak Nike Sport Loop. I’ve always wanted that one but missed my opportunity on it. It was also discounted which was nice!

So I just received an email from Nike saying the item was back ordered. So they’ve sent me a refund and weren’t able to ship the band out. I am actually very disappointed as I was pretty excited for this band!

The same thing happened to me last year. I thought I had snagged a hard to find band through Nike only to be let down a couple of days later via email. I guess that the Nike website is not updated in a timely manner with the actual inventory.

Hey what's up
i have been looking for this band for long time, do you still have it? im very serious
You're replying to someone, who was saying, a year and a half ago, that there was one such band in some store that he could buy and send to some interested party. I highly doubt that said band is still sitting in the store, a year and a half later.

I had 2 of those bands and both of them were sold last year for a (very happy now) collectors from Canada and Japan. I am afraid that this band is not available anymore...

Didn’t know there was such thing as a Louis Vuitton sport band? Is it real?

don't believe this scammer!

He got/did himself several "gold/18K" marks on watch bands/bracelets, and now selling them for crazy money! There are no fine marks (because "printing" of such marks is illegal and could have very serious consequences for scammer), and look at his "gold link bracelet" - he printed "24K GOLD" on one corner, and in the center of buckle it still says "stainless steel"! Pure scam!

apple has NEVER released any other designer collabs apart from Hermes. thats just how it is.

Some brand may make Apple Watch friendly straps (Coach for example) but its not official by any means. LV has their own smartwatch for Android so they would never

So, getting back to the unreleased Nike Sport Bands, my assumption was that they are pre-release "escapees" from the factory and we'll see them launched by Apple in Spring. Presumably the factory has to start making them well before launch, and in fact may make the entire run before launch (hence why some colours run out early, if they are more popular than was expected when they were being ordered).

On that basis I'm sort of chilled about getting them from the source versus picking them up officially when they become available.

Are others thinking they might never see the light of day through Apple though?

What do you guys think about the Nike logo marking on that unreleased colors, all of the fall Nike bands doesn’t have the + sign, and these ones have it, so maybe are old never released??

Many thanks to the creator of the Apple Watch band chart, it is a wonderful piece of work. However, I am having difficulty reading the text that lists the band color and release date/availability range. I am only interested in the Nike+ Sport band section. Is there a way to clip out that section in order to produce a more legible image?

I sometimes come across a Nike Gray and Black Sport Band, such as the attached, but don't see this color on any of the charts posted here. Is this perhaps a Pure Platinum/ Black band, or is it really the darker gray as it appears in the picture?

The only gray Nike bands I've seen on the charts are these three:

... and this doesn't appear to be any one of those.

I think that is actually Pure Platinum/Black. Sometimes the lighting in some photos can distort the actual color a bit.

Assuming it’s not a fake... Could also be the “bone” variant that could only be had with a Nike Watch at the time.

Nah it couldn't have been the bone NikeLab sport band. That band wasn't sold separately and it had "NikeLab Innovation x Innovators" engraved on the pin whereas the photos above show a clean pin.

I agree with 28Gauge that it could be the Pure Platinum/Black band shot in less than ideal lighting conditions.

Good points. I just can’t help but notice the white packaging being so white in the captures..
