30 Unconventional Headphones

These unconventional headphones feature a variety of innovative and interesting variations of the earbud. Headphones can be used for recreational use -- from going to the gym to walking your dog -- and also for stylish purposes. Rarely do people buy headphones purely for sound quality -- there are a multitude of other factors that go into their purchasing decisions.

Many of these unconventional headphones are style innovations, like ones that pay homage to the global pop-culture phenomenon Hello Kitty. Some headphones are functional upgrades -- ranging from sweat-proof headphones to the waterproof headphones. There are also some that are just plain odd and serve a very specific market's interests like Marek Cina's 'Listening to the Sea' headphones.
