Nomad has launched slick limited edition Apple Watch Sport Bands like Glow 2.0 and Night Watch Red this year which have sold out quickly. Now the company is back with its latest limited-run design – “Blurple.” Here’s a closer look at this vivid hue.
In May 2023, we got the Altlantic Blue limited edition Nomad Apple Watch Sport Band. Now about a year later, a new rare band from Nomad has launched in the blue color family.
Blurple was designed in collaboration with The Verge. After testing out this band with my Apple Watch Ultra, I’d describe it as a rich indigo. To my eye, in natural sunlight, it leans a little more on the blue side, and in indoor/artificial light, it leans a bit more on the purple side.
Nomad Sport Band specs

- Price: $60
As I’ve shared with previous Nomad Sport Band reviews, I love the pill-shaped closure pin design that gives a more secure fit than the ball-shaped pin that Apple uses with its Sport Band. And the Nomad Sport Band offers full adjustability.
If you haven’t used Nomad’s Sport Band, the ventilation channels truly improve airflow for a more breathable experience compared to the flat design of Apple’s Sport Band.
This limited edition collaboration has a discreet “The Verge” logo on the inside of the band’s pin.
Nomad’s Sport Bands have become my Apple Watch go-to for years now and they’ve proved durable and comfortable in the long run.
