Apple 45mm Pride Edition Sport Band - M/L

Featuring a joyful design, the Pride Edition Sport Band incorporates a full range of vibrant colours to celebrate the beauty and diversity of the LGBTQ+ community. In addition to the colours of the core Pride flag, black and brown symbolise marginalised LGBTQ+ communities of colour, as well as those impacted by HIV/AIDS. Light blue, pink and white honour trans and non-binary people.

Made from a custom high-performance fluoroelastomer, the Sport Band is durable and strong, yet surprisingly soft. The innovative pin-and-tuck closure is laser-etched with “Designed with pride in California”. The band is complemented by a matching animated watch face and iPhone wallpaper.
