It’s available in several solid colors and hues to match your style. However, the Solo Loop is a single piece of material with no way to adjust its size, so you have to be sure it fits your wrist before you get one. Apple has a printable sizing tool to help you figure out which size is right for your wrists. You’ll also have to choose a watch band that’s appropriate for the size of your Apple Watch, and can use Apple’s identification tool if you don’t know that information off the top of your head.</p> <div><h3>Apple Watch Braided Solo Loop</h3> <figure></figure> <h3>Where to Buy:</h3><ul><li> <strike>$99</strike> $29.99 at <strong>Woot</strong></li></ul></div> <p>The <strong>Solo Braided Loop</strong> is an official Apple Watch band made from recycled polyester yarn filaments weaved around silicon threads. Apple says the material is textured and soft while being both sweat and water resistant. As with the Solo Loop, the Braided Solo Loop has some give but its length can’t be adjusted, so you’ll need to get one in the correct size. Most of these bands are available in a single color, but Woot has discounted the multicolor Pride Edition band Apple released in 2021.</p>  <h2><strong>Three more great deals</strong></h2>  <ul> <li>The <strong>11-inch iPad Air (M3)</strong> with 128GB of storage is back to its all-time low price of $449 ($150 off at Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart.
