My neon pink sport loop arrived today. I really like the colours for summer and since there are not many photos on here, here are a couple. I also ordered vitamin c so this will be my version of a neon summer. Now if someone has a 40 mm flash or flashlight loop they want to trade me for something I’d be down with that!
Yesssss. All the picture confirmation I need, I thought I wanted this band and this is definitely the proof I was right. I know a lot of you say you don’t care for the loops, but man do I keep buying them! They aren’t sport bands, but they have a personality and feel all their own that makes them desirable to me.

The loops are really growing on me. They feel nice to wear and they have a look I like, particularly some of the current colours which are very fun.

Well, I just realized I can‘t send Vitamin back, either ... as it completes the „Neon Set“ I didn‘t even know I was working towards for the last 5 years. 😂

(Blue 1.Gen., Vitamin, Green, Flash)

That looks good. I think Vitamin C is the colour OG Orange should have been. It might also displace Hermes as “the one to have if you only want one orange”, though I’ll have to look in the daylight. If so I guess I’ll have to get it as well as my wife.

I don’t have Spicy available for whoever asked for a Spicy, OG, and Vit C shot.
 
Makes me wonder why Apple uses such terrible photography for their bands. It’s like they are trolling the customers.
Yeah...it’s like they spend so much energy fretting about getting is as neutral as possible that it’s representative of nothing...or maybe it’s simply because all the hero shots for all the prod have to be in the same white void so they can sit on the same background on the website (we shall not discuss the abomination that is the dark mode Store.app)

They should definitely add some real-life pictures „on the wrist“ and in natural light to the respective galleries of the bands. I bet they‘d sell more bands that way and they‘d have less returns.
 
Is anyone close to a store that is still carrying stock of a 40mm Lemon Cream? I'm trying to pick up up before they are completely gone and my local store is out of it.

UPDATE: I was able to find someone who picked up what I needed from the Pleasanton Store

THANK YOU ALL WHO OFFERED TO HELP

this is group is so good with helping everyone get what they need....and also SO BAD with helping everyone get what they need... LOL! I buy more bands because of someone's photos, someone's review, someone's love for a band... and in the end, what really matters is that I feel like I'm not a weirdo. There are others out there who love this hobby as much if not more than I do! thank you guys!
 
When my wallet recovers again.. I’d like the Seafoam. I’m surprised actually.

It appears in photos to have the “glowing” pastel effect. I’ve noticed it in my grapefruit band, my lemon cream band, etc. They appear to be so light, pastel and airy but they indeed almost “glow”.

I’m intrigued by the coastal gray too, although if it were lighter I’d like it even more. I already have cocoa, and that’s too dark to do anything special for me. It’s like my black and midnight blue, they are there for if for any reason I need a dark color.
 
Not the watch band but vitamin C is slightly lighter in real life than the Apple website according my eyes. Got this yesterday. In most instances it's even a BIT lighter than this photo. It's nice though. My favorite orange sport band was the spicy orange a few years back. It was darker and deeper than this one.

That’s one area I have to hand it to the knockoff market. They always reproduce old colors for new phones and new colors for old phones. A treatment Apple never gives (for reasons I completely understand and are more than valid). And since even OEM Apple Silicon cases tenD to wear down pretty bad, it’s nice to have cheaper and wider options.

Oh wow...this is the first time I’ve seen and liked this! Looks way better than the stock pics.

I hate to deviate too far from new band hype, but can someone post a picture of their Midnight Fog Loop on both sides? I picked one up cheap and I can’t tell if it’s faded, or if one side is clearly more blue than the other green/blue weave. Chargerstore’s pictures are hard to discern. These older loops appear to be more susceptible to UV damage it would seem.

I got this loop insanely cheap, but I’m trying to decide if I can live with it if it is in fact faded. Pics of mine below. The Velcro side is VERY green compared to the reverse.
