I know I have an obsession with Apple Watch bands . I can’t stop buying new ones, and it’s become a bit of a problem.
Any good alternatives to the Trail Loop? $99 for a nylon band feels like too much.

I got a 3-pack on Amazon for around £5. They came in orange, black, and green. The quality is surprisingly good, and I don’t see any weak points so far.

Check eBay. I’ve found all mine secondhand there for way cheaper.
My wife got me over 20 bands from Alibaba. They’re about 60-70% as good as the official Apple ones but only cost between $2-$4 each. The only downside is waiting a few weeks for shipping.
Which one is your favorite band?

Hard to say! It depends on the occasion. What I really enjoy is how you can switch both the watch face and the band—it feels like having a whole collection of watches in one.
This is literally going to be me .
Same here… I have a thing for accessories .
I’m getting my first Apple Watch next week! Is the Milanese Loop worth it?

Be careful with knockoffs.

I had an issue with the original Ocean Band on the first Ultra when I had a small accident, and it broke. That’s when I found out about all the cheaper alternatives and kind of went crazy with it .

The Milanese is one of my favorites—it fits well and looks really elegant.
Don’t worry, I’m the same way. I have cases full of bands, just like collecting old CDs.
With so many bands, which one do you recommend for sleeping?

I like the Trail Loops—they’re super comfortable for sleeping.

Thanks! I was thinking of getting the Sport Loop, but I’ll look into the Trail Loop too.
@Rory
Those bands are beautiful!
I only have two—both black, just different sizes.
