[@brandon_caleb]

I just reviewed Apple’s newest band and their first one in 2023 - the Black Unity Sport Loop! Watch it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/en7NemRrmp6qpqc

[@gamesnic]

Well done video, no useless parts and good explanations. Thanks

[@user-bc2gj1zz6q]

This is just what i needed, i run cross country but also wear my watch throughout the day so im probably gonna get the sport band.

[@realrandombogus]

Best video I could find on the Apple Watch bands, thanks for the help!

[@brandon_caleb]

Happy to help!

[@Ykodi01234]

Great video! Anyways, The Milanese feels the best in my opinion.

[@knchapman2012]

I love the Nike sport band

[@brandon_caleb]

Me too!

[@Gabriel-hn4nk]

cool support for Apple Watch bands 😍😍

[@Ykodi01234]

Great video!! Thanks IMO the Milanese is the most comfortable on the hand because it breath and feels cold

[@vikramiot6233]

great comparison, QQ- How does the Sports loops under heavy workout, does it retains moisture of the sweat, and how long does it takes to dry up?

[@brandon_caleb]

It hardly retains moisture if any, and whenever it gets wet, it dries up quickly - around 30 minutes or an hour

[@broly160]

amazing video bro this was extremely helpful

[@brandon_caleb]

Thank you! Happy to help!

[@JG-ym5mo]

My Apple Watch is amazing, and I love the product red sport loop, I’ve only had it for one year, and I’ve noticed the Velcro is getting less sticky and I engage in normal every day activities. Nothing extreme, is this an issue?

[@josephpepe2607]

That storage rack is awesome. I’m ordering one.

[@brandon_caleb]

I love it!

[@mintleaf2469]

My personal favorite band has to go to the sports loop. It looks really cool and is great for exercising!

[@brandon_caleb]

The Sport Loop is one of my favorites too!

[@Cartman5101]

how about the nike sportband?

[@jeremyguiab]

Is the sport loop waterproof

[@josephpepe2607]

That’s my number two, leather link is definitely my favorite.

I want a third party metal link band. Do you think it’s good?

An auteur is a filmmaker whose individual style and complete control over all elements of production give their films a recognizable and consistent aesthetic. They are often seen as the "author" of their films, as their unique vision and style set them apart from other filmmakers.

[@erikh1041]

I like the milanese. It’s expensive sure, but so versatile, and breathable

[@brandon_caleb]

I love the Milanese as well for day-to-day and formal occasions. But despite it being breathable and versatile, the band doesn’t do wonders for me when working out since it gets loose when you move around too much, and when you do a workout like say, pushups, the sharp edges of the band dig into your wrists and it kind of hurts. The Milanese is amazing for any occasion except working out imo

[@sam_9228]

I have the Milanese, but I’m wondering if you can go in the water with it

[@erikh1041]

@@sam_9228 yes you can

[@josephpepe2607]

I find that comes undone, too easy as the end is the only magnetic part. I definitely prefer the leather link.

[@greenievr6]

My favorite is the normal sport loop I have the deep navy blue and orange one

[@michmerry]

I love the braided band it's so comfortable to wear

[@brandon_caleb]

Me too!😊

[@peytonlockwood5204]

How is it for exercising? Is it water resistant enough?

[@michmerry]

@@peytonlockwood5204 it's great for the workouts but I haven't been swimming with it yet!

[@meghanorourke1517]

Is the braided solo loop true to size? If i measure with apples watch size print out, will that be the size I should order?

[@brandon_caleb]

I suggest you size down one size from what you measured on the print out. The band will slowly stretch out over time (by a tiny bit) anyway 😊

[@ridonvokshi8798]

Thanks for the review! Where can I find the US Sport Loop to purchase?

[@brandon_caleb]

It’s no longer available since it was released in 2021 as a limited edition product, but you can still find it on eBay for a little more than the retail price

[@rodneyjones4596]

Dude great video I need that wall stand for the bands where can I get one thanks

[@Celisar1]

I have been looking for a nice storage possibility to hang on the wall to show your band collection. Yours is just perfect! Where can I get it and what’s the name (have searched Amazon up and down!)?

[@brandon_caleb]

I got mine on Etsy! There’s a wide variety of colors to choose from and you can even customize it with your own name. www.etsy.com/listing/737953985/

[@user-xc4eh4kp9n]

Question: which leather band is dark blue? 2- Did you get M/L size or L/M. I have a small wrist

[@brandon_caleb]

The dark blue band (which is actually nylon) in the video I didn’t go over was the Hermès Nylon Noir/Blue Saphir Jumping Single Tour. I believe it only comes in one size for my case (40mm) which fits 140-175mm wrists. It retails for $319, and is still available when I check the Apple Store app

[@iamgaganrana]

Nicely done ✅

[@brandon_caleb]

Thanks!

[@ladyjedi3D]

Is the Apple Watch watch band holder3-D printed? Where can we get one of those? Is that something you were selling?

[@brandon_caleb]

Please refer to my pinned comment 😊

[@themanbrodude]

Hey for the sport loop, it doesn't say whether or not it's stretchy or not. And how does it hold together? Velcro?

[@brandon_caleb]

Hey, sorry for the late reply! The Sport Loop is NOT stretchy, but it is infinitely adjustable and is held together by a Velcro-like material

[@royrice6656]

Don’t get the wrong one. Buy all 16!! 😳😳😳

THIS is the correct answer🤩🤩🤩

@@brandon_caleb I clicked the link it had a lot on there but I didn’t see yours. I’ll have to check again.

[@blue_ig1]

The Sport Loops are the best imo

[@brandon_caleb]

I agree, they are the best entry-level band Apple sells. But if you have the extra cash the Braided Solo Loop is the elite option

[@enriquetheboy]

I have the white nike one!

[@brandon_caleb]

YAy!!

[@The_Dragon527]

Personally for me the Nike sports band was not for me, perhaps related to the material but it gave me a rash after using it. I like to just stick to the sport loop 🙂

[@kozmo7]

The Nike sport band with all of the holes right? That’s the one I have and I’m getting a rash too weirdly enough Do you think it’s bacteria in all the little holes?

[@aaaaea9268]

Btw. when it comes to the Hermes one you can always make extra holes in it, or take it to a watch shop for them to do that. It's something my dad and grandpa did with their luxury watches when looking for a perfect fit with a new leather band. Better to have that than for it to be completely useless.

[@himilpatel6928]

What wrist size do you have and is it 45mm Apple Watch.?

[@brandon_caleb]

My wrists are 135mm (yep, they’re small), and the watch shown in the video is the 40mm Series 6

[@himilpatel6928]

@@brandon_caleb thank you brother

[@josephpepe2607]

The leather link and sport loop are hands down THE best. P.S, the leather link has never gotten loose during the day or night while sleeping for me,so I have never had to adjust it multiple times as you stated. And of course it’s gonna wrinkle in look worn it’s leather. Lmao

[@Woodman-Spare-that-tree]

What size watch are you wearing? The 45 mm ?

[@brandon_caleb]

40mm

[@andreweid]

Is the 1st one adjustable for little arms?

[@brandon_caleb]

The Sport Band has two different sizing options to choose from - S/M and M/L. The smaller version S/M does fit little arms, it fits my little sister’s on the smallest hole

[@greenievr6]

I have the Nike sport band on my watch

[@willdoug6604]

i wish apple would bring back the Nike Black/Yellow volt color one

[@simplyrowen]

How is the sizing for the solo braided loop? You didn’t mention that. Do I need to size down for that one too, or do I follow Apple’s suggestion? My wrist is 15cms, and Apple suggests I get size 4.

[@brandon_caleb]

I suggest sizing down one. Although I’ve found the braided to not stretch as much as the normal solo loop for some reason, the braided is more comfortable and sizing down one wouldn’t hurt. It will still stretch over time anyway by a little bit

[@sebastianforkuoh2354]

The Braided Solo Loop is so comfortable. It’s pricey at £99, but it’s absolutely worth it.

[@Alexfoleyphotos]

Does it also run big?

[@TedJM]

@@Alexfoleyphotos idk if your are still interested but look for an apple sizing to mm or inch size conversion and use that as your way of dertermining your size as a difinitive mm or inch measuement is more accurate than a number

[@ridahaider3967]

which band does not cause rash ?

[@brandon_caleb]

Unless you’re allergic, Apple Watch bands shouldn’t cause rashes. Keeping the bands regularly clean and not having it too tight on your wrist are great ways to avoid rashes

[@patriciaware8876]

Not only the bands you’re choosing also you,need a nice face to compliment that band! Great choices keep making the videos I love your styles 😊

[@KingOfGlassCollector]

It all comes to the use case. Nike band or sport band is best for swimming. Best casual wear is sol o bands. Best exercise one nike band its breathable and letting your sweat get dry. for formal outlook best is leather. Metal bands are not good for the body.

[@nelsonjojomabutas4791]

When are they making an adidas band

[@brandon_caleb]

Probably won’t ever be, Nike has been their long-time partner and Adidas is their direct competitor so that’s highly unlikely

[@TheBamaChad-W4CHD]

People please don't pay 50 bucks and more for watch bands. Just because apple makes it is no excuse for them to charge those moronic prices. You can literally get like 6 for 20 dollars on Amazon. Most of the silicone bands are identical to the ones apple charges you your first born child for. Yeah I have a IPhone. Yeah I have a Apple Watch. They are tech and high quality. They are very overpriced as well but rubber watch bands for 50 bucks? Come on

[@TheBamaChad-W4CHD]

Now if you are getting a leather band? A good metal band? Apple will probably be your best bet. Not for cloth and silicone ones!
