These garishly loud neon Aerial7 'Graffiti' headphones are a clever blend between [1980's street fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesley-headphone) and 1990's rave wear. Aerial7 doesn't say whether these headphones are blacklight-reactive, but it'd make far more sense if they were. The Aerial7 'Graffiti' headphones come with two jacks to accommodate both standard MP3 players and--gasp--the [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/racer-worldwide-racerpods-necklace), which uses a smaller cable. The iPhone cable even comes with a tiny microphone so you can nix the white standard one entirely. If you enjoy accessorizing with neon, that is.
