It was a result of the pairing between Nike as a sports brand and the Apple Watch Series 2. After receiving a positive response for this, there is another addition to the Apple Watch collection which is NikeLab.
On its official blog, Nike announced today that a new version of the Apple Watch Nike+ is out which is very close to the previous model.
