Stock has now arrived, however, and Apple's PRODUCT(RED) Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop for Apple Watch can be ordered today from Apple's online store for $49 and $99, respectively, with shipping times for most sizes currently at 1-2 weeks.

The Solo Loop and Braided Solo Loop are optimized for Apple Watch SE and Apple Watch Series 4 or newer. Sizes one through nine work with 40mm cases, and sizes four through 12 work with 44mm cases.

Apple donates a portion of proceeds from every (PRODUCT)RED product that it sells to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, with Apple selling a wide range of (PRODUCT)RED products ranging from iPhone and iPad cases to Beats headphones and speakers. Through December 31, Apple is partnering with (RED) to redirect 100% of eligible proceeds from (PRODUCT)RED purchases to the Global Fund's COVID‑19 Response to help support health systems most threatened by the outbreak.

Can't justify paying $100 for a band that costs the same as the leather link.
Nevermind the leather link, I’m having a tough time comparing its value to the $99 HomePod mini.

I always find it funny how people berate Apple over their band prices. Sure you are paying a small premium, but they are leagues better from a fit & finish perspective. If you genuinely think that your Amazon pack of ten for $5 is “just as good” than I have a bridge to sell you. Every AppleWatch band I have from Apple is just as good as day one and fit like a glove. I did try the Amazon route once and thought, silicone is silicone, paid around 20 bucks for it. I went to take it off and the lug snapped off and I dropped my watch and had to use my AppleCare to get a replacement. I feel like its the same people who will buy a 1200 iPhone and get a $3 brick from Sunoco.

When your watch bands have financing option you know it’s too expensive.
