These Monster + Adidas headphones come with a few nifty additions in the tech and comfort department. The material is sweat-proof, ensuring that users will be a little bit less moist around the earlobes when exercising and listening to music. The headphones are also easily foldable, and can be placed in a custom pouch for safety.
A few different colors are available, but the standout design is the one in a bright blue. According to DesignBoom, "the in-ear models incorporate a patented sports-clip for keeping the buds in your ears without falling out." Considering how frustrating it is to run and have one's headphones fall out every two steps, this is a necessary addition to any design being promoted for use in sports. What's more is that the Monster + Adidas Headphones have noise-cancellation technology to keep out background sounds.
