Apple Watch Nike Sport band now sold separately for $49, joins new spring lineup

Nike's lightweight, perforated sport bands are priced at $49 and come in colors of black/volt, anthracite/black, and pure platinum/white. AppleInsider reviewed the Apple Watch Nike+ in December and found that the previously-exclusive sport band had a funky look but a practical purpose for athletes.

But rather than buy an entirely new $369 watch just to get the Nike Band, customers can now buy the band separately for a much more affordable price.

In addition, Apple also launched regular $49 sport bands in three new colors:

• Camellia Sport Band
• Pebble Sport Band
• Azure Sport Band

Woven nylon bands also gain six new spring colors, priced at $49:

• Orange Woven Nylon
• Berry Woven Nylon
• Red Woven Nylon
• Pollen Woven Nylon
• Tahoe Blue Woven Nylon
• Midnight Blue Woven Nylon

In addition, the $149 classic leather design was also updated with these new options:

• Saddle Brown Classic Buckle
• Berry Classic Buckle
• Taupe Classic Buckle
• Sapphire Classic Buckle
• Red Classic Buckle
• Midnight Blue Classic Buckle
• Black Classic Buckle

Finally, the Hermès Leather collection also gained two new styles. Priced at $489 apiece, they are:

• Apple Watch Hermès Fauve Barenia Leather Double Tour
• Apple Watch Hermès Bleu Zéphyr Epsom Leather Double Tour
