Official Apple Watch Alpine Loop band sees spring discount to second-best price of $83

Reg. $99/$83

Just released alongside the new Apple Watch Ultra last fall, the all-new Apple Watch Alpine Loop Band is now seeing a well-timed spring discount. Courtesy of Amazon, you can bring home the unique strap at $83.04 shipped in the Starlight colorway. Perfect for tagging along on hikes or any other outdoor excursions this spring, today’s offer is down from the usual $99 going rate in order to land at the second-best price to date. The $16 in savings has only been beaten once before when it fell $3 lower earlier in the year. Sporting a unique rugged design that weaves together two layers of woven fabric, the Alpine Loop is designed for Apple Watch Ultra but also works with the larger of Apple’s standard 44 and 45mm wearables. The stitch-free look uses high-strength yarn to deliver on the unique top loop look with a corrosion-resistant titanium G-hook that slides into place for securing to your wrist. Head below for more.

If you’re looking for some more affordable bands that still pack Apple’s signature in-house stylings, we’re tracking a series of official offerings on sale right now, too. These ongoing markdowns arrive courtesy of Woot, dropping first-party Milanese Loops and Leather Link Bands at $52 each from the usual $99 going rates. Not to mention, there are some more affordable silicone and fabric offerings from $19 that are worth a look, too.
