2017 Pride Band

Band Type: Woven

In 2017 Apple released its first pride band to the public, however this band made its first appearance in 2016. In 2016 it launched at the San Fransisco annual pride parade. It is a nylon band and features red inserts, as well as a silver clasp closure. Due to this band being released five years ago, it is not the easiest to find. It can be found on eBay at times, but it does cost a pretty penny.

2018 Activity Rings Band

Band Type: Woven

In 2018 this band was released exclusively to Apple Employees, who closed their move rings everyday for a month. It is a simple black nylon band with a red green and blue color blocked stripe on it. These colors symbolize the colors of the activity rings (blue for standing, green for exercise, and red for movement). Since this band was never released to the general public, it is extremely rare.
