And although its not quite the perfect strap, its still a favorite of mine heres why.
Firstly, the absence of any fastening features is a big time saver.
Simply check out Apples size guide on its website and find the fit that works for you.
Easy as you like.
But there were more design aspects that I loved.
Its also both swimproof and sweatproof, making it totally workout-ready.
These colors were added inSpring 2025 just after I picked up the far less adventurous black variant.
Im still not over it.
But look, Im going to have to burst the Apple Solo Loops bubble for a second.
Sure, thats in line with the more affordable first-party options, like theApple Sport Band, for instance.
You want to add a splash of color to your wristLook… Theres Peony, Periwinkle, Northern Lights… even Light Blush if youre into that.
So rest assured, theres plenty of ways to spice things up a bit.
That means its not as breathable something thats not ideal if youre in the midst of a sweat-heavy workout.
Instead, Id suggest checking out the Apple Nike Sport Loop.
That model is made from nylon yarn and is much less susceptible to picking up unwanted fluff.
I mean, what more could you want?
