New Striped Woven Nylon Bands

Nice! The Orange is the best of the new tricolor nylon bands IMO.
The colors looks like pop a lot more in real, than the press pictures - fantastic colour this one and the blue stripes
Berry on 38mm Rose Gold Aluminium.
That's my wife's setup as of yesterday! She loves it.
Just picked up a Tahoe Blue...
Again I'm pretty impressed with the new blue stripes! Really pops!
I thought it looked pretty good in the pictures but in person it looks even better. Very happy with it.
I just received my Midnight Blue Nylon band for my 42mm Space Grey Apple Watch (colour in real life is a fraction lighter than the pics below):
To be honest - not sure I am liking it as much as I thought I would!!
The silver buckle, totally does not match the space grey body of the watch (which I knew anyway but didn't think I would be bothered!) so don't know if my OCD will take it!!! I would have also liked the band to have been a little darker as its not really "Midnight Blue" - the only part which IS actually "Midnight Blue" is the edge of the band and the lugs, but it is what it is I guess.....
I'll probably wear it this week and see how I feel about it - might swap back to my Apple "Black" Nylon band instead - at least the Space Grey buckle on that will match the watch body....

Good catch - where do the 'Mist Blue' and 'Flamingo' colours come from though? Can't remember bands with those names. The list is getting quite long to scroll through now on the watch!
Tried to buy a striped Orange nylon today, but despite showing 'available today' on the Apple Store app, they didn't have any in stock
Would be interested in seeing any real-life photos of a silver aluminium watch with either the red, orange, or Tahoe striped bands!
Wow those pictures look stunning!
I know what you mean with the buckle, but for some reason it's only the adapters I have a total OCD with - with the buckle it's okay as long as it makes sense with the color of the band (My black nylon has black buckle for my clear steel watch)
I got a Tahoe Blue on Monday (UPS del'y) but I was completely underwhelmed when I looked at it. I don't think it looks near as nice as this. Probably will return it without ever wearing it.Just picked up a Tahoe Blue...

I had also hoped so but the one I received yesterday is really pastel. Looks to feminine for my eyes.
Thinking about swapping my Pollen for the Orange one. In the pictures online the Pollen looked a lot more like a neon green color which I like. But in reality it is actually really yellow (I guess that's obvious from the name lol), which I'm not a huge fan of. Still deciding on it.
....why don't you try the Midnight Blue colour instead, which will be darker than the Tahoe Blue you have - see my post (post#42) above....
