Silicone is a funny material, when you put an Apple logo on it it multiplies in cost by 10.

So the Lake Green band goes to Sage and all I can see different is the name? Looks exactly the same...

If you think that looks exactly the same, I'll need to make a note to discount your comments relating to attention to detail or aesthetic elements ?

Granted, they are similar.

But look at the contrasting edges of the loop, and the shoot-green threads that make up part of the weave. Plus, the overall colour has a different saturation and tone. Plus the plastic connector is a deeper shade, which has an impact on overall impression.

That is for poor people who need to pretend to be rich. Those brand prey on low-iq people.
