Will Apple sell the Nike + watch bands separate from the watch? I have a Sport Apple Watch; but would like the Nike + band.

Since they're silicone, they're probably a lot stretchier than the official flouroasteroemer (whatever the spelling is) bands, especially because of all the additional holes.

(I'm just teasing about the spelling of the official Apple/Nike band material; my Sport band has become one of my favorite watch straps of all time)

There are plenty of them.. with the majority using official Apple Nike+ photos instead of real pictures.

Did you find REAL nike+ bands?

they aren't real ones. just "high end" knock offs. real ones are going for 150+ just have to wait until the market has more. unless you can afford the 150.

I bought one of the 'higher end' knock offs from FanTEK on amazon and it's garbage compared to the original bands. Would not waste your money on them right now.

(I got the grey/white knock off and it's bad, have not tried other colours yet)

The one I bought on amazon from OULUOQI is actually very good. Better than Moko. Check the other thread for my pics.

Update: FanTEK actually contacted me after I wrote my Amazon review and they say that they have updated the bands and they are now better quality and better colour. They sent me an Unshopped photo of the grey/white band and it looks way better. They are sending me the replacement band free of charge so I will update this when I actually can compare the new and improved band.

Stay tuned!
