The Apple Watch Pride Edition Sport Band has been shown off by the tech brand as a new accessory for consumers to pick up for Pride Month as a way to elevate their wearable with a touch of inclusivity.
The smartwatch strap features a white background accented by all the colors of the original Pride Flag alongside five others including black and brown for the Black and Latin communities, and those who have been lost or are living with HIV/AIDS. The pink, light blue and white symbolize trans and nonbinary people. The smartwatch strap has a playful, confetti-style pattern to make it a chromatic addition to any user's wrist.
The Apple Watch Pride Edition Sport Band is launching alongside the Pride Celebration iOS wallpaper and watch face. These initiatives are part of the brand's continued support for the LGBTQ+ community alongside funding of advocacy organizations.
