The bands can be paired with new matching Pride watch faces coming in watchOS 6.2.5, which remains in beta testing.

Through this effort, Apple and Nike said they are proud to support LGBTQ advocacy organizations worldwide, including GLSEN, PFLAG, The Trevor Project, Gender Spectrum, The National Center for Transgender Equality, and ILGA World, which brings together more than 1,500 member organizations in more than 150 countries and regions.

Last year's Pride band was a nylon Sport Loop.

I ordered both, but I’m worried the injection molding for the colors is going to be a bit wonky on the non-Nike band. My OCD immediately noticed that the colors aren’t perfectly straight (pun?) on the website images.
