The official Apple Watch bands seem ridiculously overpriced. I’m just curious on the reasoning for purchasing the official Apple bands. There are plenty of cheaper bands online for a fraction of the price. I went into the Apple Store and was shocked at how expensive they are lol. What other watch bands do you guys recommend? Besides brand name is there a reason why they are so expensive?

    They are ridiculously overpriced. I just bought a braided solo loop and I feel like I’ve never overpaid for something more in my life lol. The Amazon ones didn’t have the proper size, they didn’t look as nice either, but I could get 10 of them for the price of one genuine Apple band.

    Check your local TJMaxx or Marshalls. You can find Apple OEM sport band and sport loops for $13. If you don’t like the color options, you can dye the sport loops! This is the route I went since I wanted a black sport loop, which Apple doesn’t make, and wanted OEM-quality lugs.
