The nice thing about buying into Apple’s ecosystem is that because Apple has so many customers and its products are so popular that there are plenty of third-party accessories that you can buy. If you own the Apple Watch and you’re shopping about for a new strap and don’t want to pay Apple’s prices, Nomad has you covered.
The company has recently announced new natural leather bands for the Apple Watch and also for the AirPods case. Unlike Nomad’s other offerings, these come in a much lighter finish. They will still utilize Horween leather which like most leather products, will age over time where it will develop a patina that is unique to the user, meaning that no two straps of AirPods cases will lookalike.
If these sound like accessories you wouldn’t mind decking your Apple Watch or AirPods out with, the straps are priced at $60 for the 40mm/38mm model, with the option to choose between gold or silver hardware. Unfortunately the strap for the larger Apple Watches aren’t available (it is unclear if they will be launched at a later date) so you’ll need to browse Nomad’s other collection if you have the larger Apple Watch.
As for the AirPods case, that will be priced at $30 and will be available for purchase via Nomad’s website.
