The collection honors Black History Month and celebrates black culture. According to Apple, this year’s drop is inspired by the “rhythm of humanity.” It’s aptly named Unity Rhythm and features black, green, and red, the colors of the Pan-African flag.

As with years past, Apple is supporting several organizations with grants alongside this collection dropping. Those include the Ellis Marsalis Center for Music in New Orleans, the Battersea Arts Centre in London, the Music Forward Foundation in Los Angeles, the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, and The National Museum of African American Music in Nashville, Tennessee. The 2025 Black Unity Collection was designed by black creatives as well as allies at Apple.

First up is the new Black Unity Sport Loop band for Apple Watch that’s up for order now at $49 in the United States, £49.00 in the UK, or AUS $69 in Australia. It also comes in 42mm and 46mm sizes to make it fit most Apple Watches. The Black Unity Sport Loop is a woven watch band that boasts a lenticular effect thanks to raised and recessed loops, some with green and others with red. When you’re wearing the band, the idea is that the colors will blend and move together, switching from green to red, with yellow appearing in the middle.
