Are you also fed up using the same white [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-airpods) earphones that everybody else is busting out? Well, there is help at hand with Swirls.

These funky, brightly colored [ear plugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hear-hush-hoops) are hip, high performers in audio communication. With [bold use of color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/t3-jepson) and design, these babies are an individual aesthetic statement inspired by contemporary culture.

Swirls are designed by Kilo, a successful design company based in Copenhagen, Denmark and produced by aiaiai.

I am tempted by the fluorescent orange color, let alone the words, "best quality, great sound and sturdiness."
