# Metropolitan-Inspired Headgear WeSC x Jason Lee Headphones Gets Inspired by Iconic Cities By Matt Ho | Published 2011-08-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesc-x-jason-lee-headphones References: [f5torefresh](http://f5torefresh.com/2011/08/09/wesc-x-jason-lee-maraca-nyc-headphones/) & [wesc](http://wesc.com/) [RZA's 'Chambers' headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supreme-x-wutang-clan) aren't going to be released till next year; however there's still the WeSC x Jason Lee Headphones for those who wants something [stylish from the same brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inspire-series). Actor and skateboarder Jason Lee has been quite a supporter for WeSC for a long time now, so this [collaboration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aiaiai-and-blood-orange) really isn't too much a surprise. The Swedish brand's latest headgear draws inspiration from two of the States' most infamous cities: New York and Los Angeles. The designs for the WeSC x Jason Lee Headphones is molded after the Maraca model; so both will look the same with the only difference being the color. It's a ear muff-style that features branding on the side and Lee's signature on the inside of the headband. These already look stylish, so I can't wait to see what WeSC will pull out next. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Metropolitan-inspired Headgear:** Opportunity for other headphone brands to create city-inspired designs. - **Collaborative Branding:** Chance for other brands to collaborate with celebrities or influencers to create unique products. - **Ear Muff-style Headphones:** Potential for headphone manufacturers to explore fashionable and functional ear muff-style designs. ### Where This Applies - **Headphone Manufacturing:** Idea for headphone manufacturers to tap into the market of stylish and city-inspired headphones. - **Fashion and Style:** Opportunity for fashion brands to explore collaborations with celebrities or influencers to create trendy accessories. - **Music and Entertainment:** Chance for music and entertainment companies to partner with headphone brands to offer exclusive limited-edition products inspired by iconic cities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Collaborative Technical Headphone Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aiaiai-x-hiddenny-headphones.md) - [Streetwear-Branded Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/master-dynamic-x-bape.md) - [Minimalist Collaboration Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aiaiai-x-brain-dead-tracks-headphones.md) - [80s Retro-Inspired Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wesley-headphones.md) - [Collaborative Audio Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aiaiai-and-brain-dead.md) - [Modular Audio Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aiaiai-hidden-ny.md) - [60s-Inspired Headphone Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mh40-wireless-applied-art-forms.md) - [Artist-Designed Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/melody-ehsani-1.md) - [Collaborative Leather Luxe Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/md-mh40-headphones.md)
