Apple's product launches are inevitably followed by accessory producers introducing new items to go with the latest hardware. On Tuesday, leather accessory brand BandWerk did just that for the Apple Vision Pro.

The Apple Vision Pro Head Band is a leather accessory handcrafted in Germany, and is claimed to merge "traditional craftsmanship with modern design." Made from high-quality Italian leather, the band is designed to replace the modular rear section of the headset, with a large leather piece going around the back of the user's head.

Much like Apple's original band design, BandWerk's version is quite wide at the back of the head, complete with ribbed sections and what appears to be a dial similar to Apple's for ensuring a perfect fit.

BandWerk will be shipping its take on the band in early 2024, with a choice of five color options. It is expected to cost consumers $159.

    So nothing like spending another $160 on top of the $3500, for what looks more uncomfortable.  I also expect larger battery packs.  SInce the one you get only lasts about 2 hours.  So why not ones that last 3,6, to 8 hours?

    What stands out to me is how they've merged traditional craftsmanship with modern design. This blend of old and new is something I'm really looking forward to seeing in person. The fact that it's wide and ribbed for comfort, with a dial for perfect fit, sounds like they've thought of everything.
