Alongside the new AirTag, Apple this morning announced its new Black Unity Apple Watch band. The Apple Watch Unity Connection Braided Solo Loop honors Black History Month and “celebrating the power of connection.”
Apple says it is “proud to support organizations that inspire connection and promote creativity through impactful programs in under-resourced communities around the world.”
This band, along with previously released Black Unity bands, was designed by Black creatives and allies at Apple. Showcasing the colors of the Pan-African flag, the Unity Connection Braided Solo Loop is created by weaving recycled polyester yarn filaments around ultrathin silicone threads using advanced precision-braiding machinery. Soft with a textured feel, it is also sweat and water resistant. On closer look, the band reveals multiple shades of red, green, and black — giving it added depth and vibrancy.
The new Black Unity Apple Watch Unity Connection Braided Solo Loop is available to order today and will come to Apple Stores later this week. It costs $99. It’s available in 42mm and 46mm case sizes, in band sizes 0-12, and is compatible with Apple Watch Series 4 or later, Apple Watch SE, and all Apple Watch Ultra models.
