it’s probably my favorite band..i have a few of the regular band, the nike like bands...this one is soft and very comfortable
 
It’s my preferred strap. Very comfortable. I got paint on my first one recently and ordered a new one. Didn’t realize how faded the old one had become. New black one looks great. They need to be washed periodically.

I really wanted the black sports loop but my operator didn't give me a choice - black band again. And £50 for an official one is a bit steep
 
I have the indigo and Nike pearl pink sport loops. This arrived on my front porch about 15 minutes ago. :)

I'm really enjoying it too... it's my first one.
I like it best when typing on my MacBook... the other bands rub or scratch, but this so soft.

Question, I've yet to wear in the water. Does it dry quickly??

Purchased my first sports loop from Apple yesterday in storm grey. It’s so light and comfortable! I usually wear my Apple Milanese black strap for work etc so having this is perfect for lazy days! It really is like wearing jogging bottoms or pyjamas on your wrist! :)

Moved back to the sport loop this week and forgot how comfortable it is. I'm going to buy more cheap knockoffs just so I can swap them all out easily.
 
Haven’t used it in the pool. If I did though I’d consider a silicone sports band heavily over the sport loop.

I went back to the sport band due to on/off convenience, but for the short time I used the sport loop, it dried quickly enough that I used it for swimming, kept it on in the shower, etc.
 
I ordered my new gold aluminum S4 with a sport loop, and I LOVE it for comfort. I tried my new watch with my old S2 sport band and it just felt clammy on my skin, and I ended up taking it off after a couple minutes and putting the sport loop back on. What I don’t love about my pink sand sport loop is the color. The lugs just make me think of my old childhood erasers, or Topps bubblegum, and the overall effect of the woven part seems to be a lavenderish color that I don’t like. I’d love a sport loop that was closer in color to the coppery gold of the case. I’m thinking of trying the nectarine but it seems quite a bit darker.
