These Vibrating Sunglasses Offer a Unique Way of Listening to Music

Zungle proclaims these bone conduction headphones are the world's most stylish wearables.
Called the 'Panther shades,' Zungle's sunglasses are as fashionable as they are functional. The sunglasses work as bone conduction headphones do -- they vibrate sound through the wearer's skull and into their inner ear. While they don't go inside the ear as headphones would and therefore might be audible for people other than the wearer, these stylish sunglasses could have a variety of useful purposes. Bone-conduction is often a technology used for those who are hard of hearing and these headphones would also be perfect for people who listen to music while exercising outdoors.
This fashionable wearable proves that style can effectively meet function when it comes to accessories.
