MyPhones headphones for kids

These are a great idea as most kids today have an array of gadgets that require headphones. MyPhones have been built to cap volume at 85 decibels and are supra-aural, meaning that they sit outside the ear with no parts entering the ear canal. Little ears will now be properly protected.

They can also be customized which kids love to do - they can design their own shell caps, swap with friends and mix and match to make theirs a completely unique and personal set. There’s even a GoCase, which stores and protects the MyPhones, meaning the kids can grab them and go when they want to enjoy music and games on the move. As well as giving youngsters the excitement of their own headphones, MyPhones give parents confidence that their children are enjoying audio safely and responsibly.

The new Roxy JBL headphone line.

Manufactured by JBL, these funky headphones are the first of a series of audio products that Roxy will be releasing later this year. They are in true Roxy style and the sound quality is excellent. So for all you snowboard chicks out there these things could make for a nice accessory on the mountain or off for that matter.

To celebrate the launch of their new headphone line, Roxy threw a party Tuesday night at the Red Bull Space in the Soho district of Manhattan.  In true New York fashion, several celebs came out for the event as well as some snowboard heads including some of the Burton ladies.
