People hear me out: with the supposed leather loop redesign into two separate pieces, do you think they’ll do the same with the sport loop? Their crack marketing team would probably have to come up with a new name to differentiate from the sport band though
 
Side by side. Platinum left and Grey right.

When shopping i find it easier to look at the lug color. The platinum white is the ONLY nike band without black pins.

That’s me!

If they release it (and that’s a big IF,) it’ll be a new design sold alongside the leather loops. My guess is a sort of kids dress-up style band, one they can wear to formal occasions but won’t ruin. I’ve also seen theories of it being an activity focused leather band, but wearing leather while being active doesn’t sound good no matter the design.

Is it actually leather? If it’s supposed to be somehow waterproof, and given it looks like shiny vinyl, it may not be leather.

I don’t see t being a battery band - we’ve seen the connectors end-on and they don’t have anything to Interface with the Watch service port.

Good point.

I think in one of the pics, the original poster showed it had the leather symbol like the leather loops do.

Should have known! I had your collection picture handy as a reference.

Nike Pride also doesn't have black pins.
Thanks for the reminder! Mines hanging up and I didn’t even think to include that. At least that one is easy to discern whereas I see a lot of confusion on listings with the wrong color between platinum and gray.
 
It’s funny how that extra ten bucks is not tempting anyone.

I noticed that Chargerstore has a listing for a band labeled as ‘Light Gray/White’ anyone able to confirm if that is ‘Flat Silver/White’?

quick question for you guys... is the Hibiscus Sport BAND super hard to find? i’ve been looking for one for a while, looking at the chart it looks like it was out for just one season and while the sport LOOP is easily found lately, the band is not.

I have a handful of reds, including pomegranate and dragon fruit but two colors keep calling me. Hibiscus and Red Raspberry

Red Raspberry seems more red and closer to colors I already have, but the Hibiscus Sport Band seems to be brighter and more pink, which has me really intrigued and makes me want it. maybe i’m not looking in the right spots and at the right time.

Good question. Now that you mention it, I don’t think I’ve seen any hibiscus sport bands for sale, ever. If I find one I’ll let you know though. What size?

Thank you! and for sizes, it would be nice to get both, I may actually need two 42mm and one 38mm, but definitely one of each.

There’s hope that we’ll get some similar colors in a few weeks with the summer releases, just like lemon cream was similar to mellow yellow and beryl was similar to turquoise
