The Apple Watch Pride Edition Braided Solo Loop and Pride Edition Nike Sport Loop launch on May 25 with new watch faces.
Apple has released Pride Edition watch bands since 2016, and the 2021 model uses Apple's new Braided Solo Loop design. The new band incorporates more colors to represent additional Pride flags from across the LGBTQ+ spectrum. Black and brown symbolize Black and Latinx communities, in addition to those who have passed away from or are living with HIV/AIDS, while light blue, pink, and white represent transgender and nonbinary individuals.
Along with the new Braided Solo Loop, Apple is introducing a Nike Sport Loop band with the traditional Pride rainbow colors. The new watch bands each have a corresponding Pride watch face to go with them.
