Philips and O'Neill have joined forces to launch a line of headphones designed to withstand the rigors of an active lifestyle. The new premium line of Philips O'Neill Headphones feature four different styles, each completely unique and simple in design, yet able to withstand the challenges of the most dynamic active lifestyle.
Inspired by the heavy-duty materials and styling of wetsuit materials, The Stretch headphones - the toughest in the new line-up - delivers high performance. Both impact and high stress-crack resistant, it retains flexibility and strength for a whole new level in headphone resilience.
The Snug model does it all in style: a set of imposing flat-folding, headphones that deliver flawless fit and sound with bold graphics. The in-ear selection includes The Covert, a discreet bud with deceptively powerful sound impact and iPhone control, while The Specked includes a range of three striking colored in-ear buds, with tough yet stylish tangle-free cords for longer listening experiences.
"This range realizes the synergies of Philips simplicity and innovation and O'Neill's set of core values based around the concept of innovation in style and technology," commented Nick Andrews, Senior Manager, Consumer Marketing at Philips. "Our new Headphones are totally uncompromising in their durability - because they've been tested on our test animals: the toughest O'Neill riders, the most uncompromising and daring boarders around."
"O'Neill and Philips share a long and successful history of product innovation, working to create products that allow people to get the most out of their lives," said Eppo van Berckelaer, Global Marketing Director at O'Neill. "Knowing how important music is to the lives of our consumers, I now encourage everyone to get out there and test the headphones for themselves."
