Bro your dedication to the watch band is amazing. You’re my favorite Apple Channel cause you go up and above. Thank you so much.
Now that you’ve listed the exact measurements for each size, I’m going to remove my current sport band, then measure the length of it fastened to where I normally wear it, genius... thank you soo much 🙌🏻😁⌚️

Thanks for all the band coverage it’s so amazing!!
You’re a godsend Juan thankkk youuu for this so helpful!
Helped me a lot - I’m pretty sure I’ve ordered the right size as I do like my bands slightly lose. I’m in NZ where the closest Apple store is in Australia - so have a 9 week wait for mine. Very good video.💥
Hey guys. I have noticed this problem in my case but I figured it out. I printed one without changing the paper size to 100 percent. When I measured, I got a 6. So according to Juan, 6-2=4. So my size is four. But when I printed out the same piece of paper at 100%, my size is a four too. So what I am trying to get at is Juan's measurements are correct, and you also have to make sure you print at 100%. I don't know if I am late to this or not, but I thought I would let everyone know.
Finally a video about the sizing😫 I wish this video was out before I got my watch
Wow, that is insane. You bought one of EACH size? Props. Seriously, you are dedicated and you have my attention and respect. Props to you, Sir.
Thanks for running around to get the bands. Super helpful advice.
Good advice: Use Apple's sizing tool. If you fall between two numbers, find the average of that number and subtract it by 1.5. That's your size. But if you fall on a whole number, subtract it by 2, and that's your size.
Really enjoy your video's , love the way you present them in an honest and informative yet really cool way .
Wow - thanks so much for the sizing chart! This will definitely come in handy!!
This was absolutely the most helpful video I have watched about those loop band sizes.. Thank you so much!
Dude... I love your videos... also love how you are straightforward and don’t BS 😂
I used the measuring guide and I’m so glad my solo band fit me perfectly ☺️☺️
Well Done Mate! Very Helpful , love the Pink Punch braided loop in particular!
I already know how amazing your vids are gonna be so I always like before I watch
This is why I am glad I went to the store and had the chance to try the bands on myself before I bought them. I went and bought a leather band and did a exchange since I needed the med instead of large and while waiting I tried them on. I was between 6-7 and was happy with a 5 actually.
I fell on an 8/9 but they were sold out. I ended up buying a 7, but I was scared its going to be too tight. This video really calmed my nerves. It's almost like I got lucky with size 8 and 9 being sold out. Thank you brother. You've got a sub!
Very informative. Great explanation. Just what I was looking for. Thank you!
Great video! I was able to go to the Apple store and find out what size fits me perfectly...Using Apple’s sizing paper tool they provide at the store, it was exactly correct...
So cool that you are from Georgia!! It’s great hearing that there is another bandaholic in GA!!
Thanks for this!
Planning on getting an Apple watch but have been wondering about the band. Can you tell us in inches what the length is for the 44mm one? is it 44mm wide and long? My wrist is just over 8 inches around using a tape measure like the one in your video. The guide tells me size 12 but am worried now it might be a bit big. Your thoughts please.
Thank you for the informative video I was really interested in the new loop bands so glad you made this video.
Thanks for the vid! I just ordered the Milanese but will need a solo loop soon. I’ll get the 6 thanks to this vid!
Good stuff bro. I’ve been waiting for someone to come out with a video EXACTLY like this since the new band announcement. Thank you for your service!
This dude knows how to board a hype train! Only 43k subscribers, but that will change soon :)
This video is definitely informative, educational and entertaining!!!!
Wow this helps alot thanks man 👍🏿
This is the video I was looking for! 😂 can’t stop laughing, love it! I’m going 2 sizes down. I first noticed sizes didn’t make sense when I saw iJustine’s video
I measured a size 2 using their online tool. Went for a size 1 braided loop and it fits perfectly.
Thank you for making this!!!
Hi Juan. After watching tons of videos like this, I decided to follow your advices about sizing with the solo loop. I measured both with the Apple printable tool and the normal tape measure: with the first one held really tightly to my wrist I was a size 5. The tape measure told me I was about 14,5 cm (or little less than 6 inches), so according to Apple my size is 4. But I was uncertain and took my risk ordering a size 3 for my Pride Edition Braided Solo Loop. It just came home and…IT IS PERFECT! So I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart, and maybe help other people who are struggling with the same issue. Your video was the most helpful one on the Tube.

You got the best band videos .
I like the non-intrusive way you asked for likes and subscribers... for that reason, I’M IN! Keep up the great content! 👍🏽
Did they update the measuring tool recently? I just bought a series 6 and the apple measuring tool with it's instructions showed me between a 5 & 6, got the 5 as they recommended and it fits fine.
Good morning Juan , love the you tube videos and just saw your video on sizing guide for solo loops .. was wondering if you coil please help..I don’t have access to a printer and so I use my own measurements for inches .. but still confuse a little in what size you recommend.. my wrist measure at 6 and 1/2 inches around? Base on your size quise and quarters . What size you recommend?
Awesome advice! Thx 😀 I measured an 8 and thought a 7 would be good. Now I’ll order a 6 and be done with it. There are no Apple stores near me that I want to go into anyway. lol
Almost ordered a 7 before watching, our wrist are about the same size and will get a 6 when ordering my Inverness green braided solo. Thanks 👍🏻

Great video, bro!
Thanks a lot bro this was super helpful will be careful ordering these
This video is very helpful to choose the size
If I am a size 6 in the solo loop and fits very snug, would a size 6 in the braided solo loop feel the same size or bigger/looser so i should go with a Size 5 braided solo loop for a snug fit?
I’m getting a braided solo loop for the first time and when I measured my wrist it gave me a measurement of 5 inches. Apple said I should get the size one in the 40MM but wouldn’t that be to small? Should I do like a size 2 or 3? Or when I measured my wrist and gave me a measurement of 5, does that mean I get a size 5 band?
Excellent video!
Thank you for the in depth review. I need that white solo for my 44mm Product Red.

Thank you for this!
I just watched your video, I was about to order a size 3 due to my wrist settles between 3/4 but know I’m unsure to order a 3 or am I supposed to go down to size 2?
I just bought the latest Apple Watch but the watch is tight on me even in the longest bands it came with if I get the the longest one on here is it loner than the one it comes with ?
Fall is my favorite season, always. New apple products and the changing color of the leaves!
Did apple mention anything about this stretching out over time?or does it hold its shape overtime? What do you think. As always nice review. 😊
Got some Apple credit and was thinking about getting a braided solo loop. I took my normal watch band and measured end to end when the band is closed at my normal hole size. If it measures 7 quarters what size should I get 🤔
I went to Apple for sizing. First I tried the sizing tool which put me between a 6 and 7. An Apple employee came out with a solo loop and a braided loop. They had a watch that I’m getting to try one with both bands. I am a size 5 for the solo loop and for the braided loop, I am a size 6. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the info! I think I won't get one before I can go into the store (I am lucky enough to live near several). I can tell from your video that online sizing info probably won't help me since what most people want looks painful to me. That being said, this video helped me be sure I shouldn't order without giving them an in person look (since I don't have a current band to compare with).
In my case the Apple sizing tool was spot on. Landed in the middle of size 7 without tightening much, and in the line between 6 and 7 when pulling a little tighter. My wrist measured 16.4 cm pulling a little tight so Apple recommended either size 6 or 7 depending on my preference. So I purchased both (braided RED version) thinking I’d return the one that didn’t fit. Well, now I don’t know which one to return because both fit just fine! Maybe the 6 is a little bit too snug but not uncomfortably so. Maybe I’ll end up keeping both, as backup.
very helpful thank you!
I measured my wrist 6 inches. I ordered size 5. It fits me fine. It doesn't move at all even when I flick my wrist.
❤️❤️❤️This is the video I was hoping for! I don’t have a printer and can’t print out the Apple tool...not like that would have helped! Apple owes you for sure! Everyone who watches this will be one person not returning product to Apple!!
Do you have any solutions for this situation...I wanted to get a 44mm watch but they don’t have my size(3) solo loop...so I had no choice but getting a 40mm one. I have bands for 44mm(originally for my series 2, 42mm watch). Do I have to collect bands again or I can still get a 44mm watch and fitted solo loop??😔
Hey man thank you for your cool help it was helpful
Thanks man really appreciate it
I’m northwest of you, up in Missouri. Almost bought an 8, but watched your sizing video and ordered a 6. Thanks!

Hi! Can I ask how is the size 6 going for u? Cuz my wrist is 17.3 cm and the app says that I’m an 8. But I don’t know whether to buy the size 5 or 6?
HELP - I have 6 quarters and according to your chart it would be a 6. Does that mean I need a 4? Thanks for your help!
wow that's commitment to a video
Being someone who’s had an Apple Watch since the series 2 I remember the days when you could trade in the band that was in the box
The tool puts me directly on the maker between 9 and 10. Should I go for the 8?
I measure a size 5 with the 44mm. But the smallest size available is 4. Can’t go down two sizes like you said. What to do? Stick with 4 I’m guessing?
Thanks for the video. I also found the measuring tool to be incorrect, but it gets worse. The measuring tool said I was a 9, but in store the size 8 was perfect for the solo loop. So, a week later when I found the Atlantic blue braided solo loop available in store for pick up in size 8 I jumped on it. Nope - it’s too big !!!? Assuming a size 7 in the braided might fit whenever I can finally find one? For the record, Apples customer service has been very good though.
Hi, I wear size 22mm for my samsung watch..which size shall i get for my apple watch?
I measured my wrist with a soft measuring tape used for clothing and it came out to 7 1/4 or 7 4/16 on the Apple website and it said I was a 9.... so should I get a size 7?
Have they fixed the problem now? I wonder if the online measuring guide is still 2 sizes off?
you sir, are a GOD!!! thank you so much for this
