Garish 'Graffiti' Headwear Straight From the Street
Marissa Brassfield — January 5, 2009 — Tech
These garishly loud neon Aerial7 'Graffiti' headphones are a clever blend between 1980's street fashion and 1990's rave wear. Aerial7 doesn't say whether these headphones are blacklight-reactive, but it'd make far more sense if they were. The Aerial7 'Graffiti' headphones come with two jacks to accommodate both standard MP3 players and--gasp--the iPhone, which uses a smaller cable. The iPhone cable even comes with a tiny microphone so you can nix the white standard one entirely. If you enjoy accessorizing with neon, that is.
