Ditch the Apple tax and score this new Nike-style Apple Watch Pride band for $9

$9

A few months back, Apple introduced a pair of new Pride Edition Sport Bands for Apple Watch, one of which is designed for Nike+ models. It’s been a few years since Apple brought any Pride bands to market, so this was a welcome refresh for many. However, the $49 price tag continues to feel rather steep. Thankfully, there are plenty of third-party options out there, including a new release from popular Apple Watch accessory maker Ad Master. Over at Amazon, you can pick up this new third-party Nike-style Pride Band for $8.99 Prime shipped. It’s slated to jump up to $12 after its launch day discount. You’ll get a nearly identical design as the official version, but shy of any Nike logos. Still, if you’re interested in this style of the band, it’s a great option. There are multiple sizes and lengths available to fit different wrists, and of course, the usual perforated design we’ve come to know on these Nike-style sport bands. Ad Master’s collection of Apple Watch silicone straps has stellar ratings from thousands of reviewers.
