Whether you're on the subway, rockin' out at the office, or booking it down Broadway, you'd have to be seriously introspective not to notice that most NYC denizens shut out the city noise with some headphones plugged resolutely into their ears. But, we're kinda sick of seeing the same plain white Apple buds providing auditory relief to everyone from skaters to stockbrokers. We know that like us, you like to inject a lil' personality in everything you wear, which is where these new Plattan headphones from Urbanears come in. You already get that we love the brand, but now they're totally updated with even better sound quality, hinge construction (allowing them to fold down to a fraction of their size), and a Zound patented plug that lets your friend plug-in to your earcap and listen to the same thing you're jammin' to. Plus, the drool-worthy summer colors like ocean, salad, purple, and red, mean we'll definitely stand out on our morning commute. Plus, we're hooking you up so you can make some waves too—just check out our swe-et giveaway.
