For those of you on the fence about what size to order. Here's what I ended up with.

For the 44mm Sport Band I use the 4th notch on the S/M band (see picture).

For the Solo Loop I went with size 6 and it fits great.
For the Braided Loop I went with size 5 and it's a little snug, but I think it will work.

I'm still not sure I'll keep the Braided as it's pretty pricey for what you are getting. I might get a Leather Link instead.

Hope this helps!

What measurement was your wrist? I also wear the same hole sport band as you and measure 15.5cm wrist (5 with the apple measurement tightly on wrist), but been at the Apple Store and a 4 seems to fit best for me. Tried the 5 was alright but didn’t like it being movable up and down my wrist. The brand new size 4 I purchased in braided loop is a lot tighter than what was sampled in store so I think I have to loosen it up. Debating if I need to grab a 5.

I didn't measure my wrist. I went for a sizing at my Apple Store for the solo loop and I first picked up the size 5. I took it back the next day and it was pinching my wrist way too much. When I took it off there was an imprint of the band on my wrist. Size 6 is just right for me.

I'm wearing the braided right now and it is a little snug. But it feels good and I would have no problem keeping it for the long run.

Yeah-- I use mostly the 3rd, sometimes the 4th, on the S/M 44 (my wrist is 145 mm), and I'm a size 4.
