You know what... it matches better than I thought it would.
Amazing color this Cactus band. It is green and it is blue. This is soooo Apple to play with our eyes like that!
2020 bands are just better, period ??♂️. Some of the older ones have the softness, some have the glow, but there’s just so many special 2020 ones.

Noice. My Chargie People’s Party Christmas pack sitting in HK right now has this sport band and the bright red/gold modern buckle prototype inside. It was time to crush all potential fomo—and give my CNY some friends. Newson knows it will never see my wrist.
Can you (or Mike) confirm what generation sport band it is? 3, right?
Definitely want to see pictures of them when they arrive. Unfortunately I don’t have any other pred bands to compare it with. Chargie listed as 2nd gen, on the app, pred sb with gold pin only came with the 1st gen. But it looks closely to the 3rd gen. Maybe mike can confirm.
Well this isn’t a canonical band so don’t be looking to the Edition history. I mean for sure this is meant to kind of fudge the edition look, but based on the other “remix” bands with gold pins I have from him (white Gen 2, midnight Gen 2), safe bet this is red from the 40/44mm era. Pitch, who owns it, says he thinks Gen 3. The Mike knows, rest assured.
Too recent for G2, but too old for G4.
Crazy to see the attention to detail in these bands. They even put gold buttons in there!

My favorite sport loops! Charcoal, Alaskan Blue and Midnight blue.

Can someone please post a pix of Vintage lichen , Obsidian mist and any other grey dark grey Nikes please?.......hint hint
Could just be separate batches. I’m not sure how air tight the color matching is after the whole pink sand fiasco. The top half is 40, right?
38mm. And this is an “after dark custom freestyle” piece so carelessness isn’t a surprise. You really can’t tell it’s different under artificial light, though. Will report back when I actually wear it.
Oh, then yeah sounds like the S/M is G3. Would need to see it up next to a known 38 and known 40 just to be sure though.
Must have forgotten to fully clock all the fall bands in all the madness of ordering them all at once. Obsidian Mist appears to be rocking Lime Blast threads.
