The Courtside is our homage to American leather craftsmanship – powerful, distinctive, authentic.
Crafted from the same Horween basketball leather used for official NBA balls, this leather is unique: robust, grippy, with that signature deep grain that comes alive with every movement. It tells a story of sport, history, and true craftsmanship – bringing that very character to your wrist.

The underside is made of fine Perlinger calfskin in black – soft, skin-friendly and sweat-resistant. This makes the strap comfortable to wear in everyday life or during sports and ensures it retains its shape over time.

Each band is handcrafted in Germany – precisely, neatly stitched, with attention to detail. The result: An Apple Watch band that doesn't strive for fashion, but has substance.
