To call the [Urbanista](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urbanista-los-angeles) Copenhagen Headphones "cool" would be a major understatement. The brand's founder Johan Wahlbäck is combining slick looks and high performance to bring audiophiles a music listening experience they've always craved.

The Urbanista Copenhagen Headphones are one of four models that are part of the brand's city series, which pays homage to famous metropolises. This pair boasts a modern design with a slim aesthetic covered in a slick gun metal colorway. The over-the-ear structure will always surely impress when it comes to noise-canceling capabilities. The Copenhagen model features a microphone built onto the cable so that it can synch up to your calls. These will work for [iPods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ipod-classic-iphone-17-case), [iPhones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macbook-neo-2) and any other device that has a 3.5mm audio jack.
