Apple Watch Sizing Guide (2025)

Beginning in 2020 Apple began offering Apple Watch band designs that were specifically sized to wrists. These bands included the Apple Watch Solo Loop and the Apple Watch Braided Solo Loop. These Apple Watch bands were available in sizes 1–12.

In order to allow individuals to determine their Apple Watch Band size, Apple provided three methods:

  • Printable Tool (online PDF)
  • Everyday items (using a “tailor’s measuring tape” or a narrow strip of paper)
  • Sizing Tool (in-store paper tool)

The first 2 options were available online. After measuring your wrist, Apple provided an online converter that allowed users to enter their wrist size to a maximum of 10 15/16 inch (although the Solo Loop only fit wrists to a maximum of 8 2/16 inches).

This third Sizing Tool option was available to Apple Store Customers. The tool includes the directions on the outer package, instructing individuals using diagrams to open the package, peel back an adhesive dot, wrap the tool around the wrist, and determine the band size based upon the location of arrows printed on the Sizing Tool.

This example is unopened and was obtained at the Deer Park (IL) Apple Store in December 2025.

iPhone 17 Pro TechWoven Case (Purple, 2025)

The TechWoven Case was introduced in September 2025 along with the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Apple described the new material: “The TechWoven Case has a new technical woven fabric that uses multiple colored yarns, creating a dimensional texture and rich depth of color, while a protective coating provides resistance to scratches and stains.”

This TechWoven material was described by some reviewers as a replacement to FineWoven, the material Apple released in 2023 to replace its leather accessories when the company removed the material from its offerings as part of its carbon neutral “Apple 2030 climate goal.” FineWoven was generally regarded by many reviewers as unsuccessful and TechWoven was referred to as the replacement of the replacement with headlines such as “Apple Seeks to Repent for FineWoven Fail With New TechWoven Cases” and bylines that included, “Apple’s TechWoven case is cloth and, more importantly, not the old FineWoven mess.”

Apple described the iPhone 17 Pro TechWoven Case as offering “beautiful personalization and protection for your iPhone 17 Pro.” They noted:

“This case is made from a custom technical woven fabric, made from 100 percent recycled polyester. Multiple colored yarns are woven together on a Jacquard loom creating a dimensional texture with a rich depth of color. The sides of the case are coated with a lightly textured TPU for better grip. The refined anodized aluminum buttons provide precise and responsive feedback.”

This case also featured two connection points so it could be securely attached to the Crossbody Strap that was introduced at the same time as this case.

The iPhone 17 Pro TechWoven Case had “built-in magnets that align perfectly with iPhone 17 Pro” and offered a “magical attach experience and faster wireless charging.” This example is purple.

iPhone 17 Pro Silicone Case (Black, 2025)

The iPhone 17 Pro Silicone Case was “Designed by Apple to complement iPhone 17 Pro, the Silicone Case with MagSafe is a delightful way to protect your iPhone.” This case also featured a conductive layer to communicate finger movements to the Camera Control button under the volume buttons.

Unlike previous Silicone case models, this one featured two connection points so it could be securely attached to the Crossbody Strap that was introduced at the same time as this case and the iPhone 17 Pro.

Apple also noted that the case was “Made with a 45 percent recycled silicone material” and “has a silky, soft-touch finish on the exterior that feels great in your hand. And on the inside, there’s a soft microfiber lining for even more protection.”

The case also included MagSafe magnets that extended the functionality of MagSafe built into the iPhone through the case. Apple described the charging functionality:

“With built-in magnets that align perfectly with iPhone 17 Pro Max, this case offers a magical attach experience and faster wireless charging, every time. When it’s time to charge, just leave the case on your iPhone and snap on your MagSafe charger, or set it on your Qi2 25W or Qi-certified charger.”

This case was originally offered in six colors. This example is black.

This USB-C charging cable was made by Apple in a braided design in black. It has USB-C connectors on both ends and could be used for charging, syncing, and transferring data between USB-C devices. It supported charging of up to 60 watts or USB 2 data transfer. If used with a USB-C power adapter, it can fast-charge devices from a wall outlet.

As of January 2026, Apple referred to this product on their website as “60W USB-C Charge Cable (1 m).”

Apple Smart Folio for iPad (A16) (white, 2025)

The Smart Folio for iPad Generation 11 (A16) was identical to the model made for iPad Generation 10. It was “thin and light and offers front and back protection for your device.”

Apple also noted that it “automatically wakes your iPad when opened and puts it to sleep when closed. The Smart Folio attaches magnetically, and you can easily fold it into different positions to create a stand for reading, viewing, typing, or making FaceTime calls.”

This Smart Folio was available in Sky (light blue), White, Watermelon (dark pink), and Lemonade (bright yellow). This example is white.

Apple Vision Pro Solo Knit Band (M, 2024)

The Apple Vision Pro Apple Vision Pro Solo Knit Band is one of the required accessories that ships with the Apple Vision Pro and is custom-sized to the user. When purchasing an Apple Vision Pro, an app scans a user’s face and helps the user select an appropriately sized Solo Knit Band.

Solo Knit Bands were available in 3 sizes: S, M and L. This example is a size M. The size of the band is woven into the inside left of the band, near the orange release tab.

This Solo Knit Band is a replacement sold in retail packaging. The Product Information indicates:

“Designed for Apple Vision Pro, the Solo Knit Band is 3D knitted as a single piece to create a unique rib structure that provides cushioning, breathability, and stretch. It has an easy-to-reach Fit Dial to let you adjust Apple Vision Pro to your head and enables microadjustments during use. The Solo Knit Band attaches to the Audio Straps with a simple and secure mechanism, and the release tabs allow you to detach it when needed.”

Among the two original options, the Solo Knit Band is my favorite in terms of comfort, and it has the least negative effect on my hair. In 2025, an new variant of this product was introduced, called the Apple Vision Pro Dual Knit Band. The second knit band extends over the head and has a separate Fit Dial adjustment.

Apple Vision Pro Light Seal Cushion (W, 2024)

The Apple Vision Pro Light Seal Cushion is one of the required accessories that ships with the Apple Vision Pro and is custom-sized to the user. When purchasing an Apple Vision Pro, an app scans a user’s face and helps the user select an appropriately sized Light Seal Cushion.

Light Seal Cushions were available in 4 sizes: N, N+, W, and W+ (the letters likely indicated “Narrow” and “Wide” sizes). This example is a size W.

This Light Seal Cushion is a replacement sold in retail packaging. The Product Information section is very sparse, noting only:

“The Apple Vision Pro Light Seal Cushion magnetically attaches to the Apple Vision Pro Light Seal and can be easily removed for cleaning.”

In addition to listing the sizes, the Highlights list only: Attaches magnetically and Hand washable.

Alpine Loop (Light Blue, Black Titanium, Large, Fall 2025)

The Apple Watch Alpine Loop band design was released along with the Apple Watch Ultra on September 7, 2022. The Apple Watch Ultra “brings a new bold design and a wide range of features built for endurance, exploration, and adventure.”

In the original press release, Apple described the Alpine Loop as one of its “New Bands Designed for the Great Outdoors.” Apple adds:

“With explorers in mind, the Alpine Loop band features two integrated layers made from one continuous weaving process that eliminates the need for stitching. The top loops, interspersed with high-strength yarn, provide adjustability and a secure attachment for the titanium G-hook fastener.”

Apple’s product page described the Alpine Loop:

“The rugged Alpine Loop is made from two textile layers woven together into one continuous piece without stitching. High-strength yarns reinforce the top loops, and the corrosion-resistant titanium G-hook slides easily into the loops for secure fit.”

This Alpine Loop is described as light blue, but the color more closely resembles slate blue in my opinion. With the announcement of the black Apple Watch Ultra 2 in September 2024, Apple began offering Alpine Loop bands with black titanium connector hardware to match the black titanium finish of the Black Titanium Apple Watch Ultra 2. A press release explained:

“To complement the new black finish, the popular Trail Loop, Alpine Loop, and Ocean Band have all been updated to offer a black hardware option in addition to natural titanium. Both black and natural finishes of Apple Watch Ultra 2 are made from 95 percent recycled titanium, and are carbon neutral with any Titanium Milanese Loop, Trail Loop, or Alpine Loop.”

The connectors and the “G-hook” closure are made of the same color titanium as the silver Apple Watch Ultra. Although splitting hairs, a more apt name for the hook would be a “g-hook” since it matches the shape of a lowercase—not uppercase—“g.”

All Apple Watch Ultra models fit the single-size 49mm case. The Alpine Loop is made primarily of polyester.
