The brightness and color fades quickly in this kind of material, something that won't happen in the braided solo loop, or the plastic ones.

I got a 6 pack generic version of various colors for like $5. They are holding up great. Check around before you blow $30 on a single one.

Something like this:

Got an open-box excellent for $16, thanks OP! Here's to hoping it's a genuine and not someone swapping out a generic, lol

Yeah, Velcro quality: 2 pos 7 neg opinion. But maybe that 5 together last as long as the genuine from .

It has been my experience that the generic versions are way louder when my watch vibrates.

While I agree that Apple versions are overpriced at 50$ my experience with OEM vs third party has clearly been in favor of the originals. Between build quality, comfort, fit on the watches connectors... I have yet to find a decent alternative. My first original sport loop is now about 6 years old and while I don't wear it much anymore it still has excellent Velcro power and looks newer than its age may suggest

I had a difference experience. On my generic sports loop, one of the brackets cracked, which caused the watch to completely release. Luckily, it did not hit the ground.

Only in America does someone think $30 is a bargain for a nylon bracelet with Velcro. I wear my generics 24x7 (except when showering or wet activities like swimming) including sleep and have found the alternatives quite satisfactory. It's never fallen off my wrist or come undone. YMMV but that's my experience. I let each one ride for 6 months then swap it out.
