Skullcandy – headphones with attitude

No one wants to eat candy made of skulls, we can quickly agree on that, but there was actually a point in the madness, when Rick Alden bought the name Skullcandy back in 2003. Rick was standing in the snow up to his knees with his snowboard under his arm, when his phone rang. It was not an important call, but the idea that came after was going to become very significant later: imagine if there were headphones that could change from music to incoming calls, so that you would not need to take your phone out of your pocket every time. Read: it can be difficult while wearing snowboarding pants.

Skullcandy is for surfers, skaters and people that want to get ahead in the world

Imagine then that the headphones could look as good as they worked. Yep. Skullcandy saw the light of day, and the technology of switching from music to calls was later copied by all producers of headphones. It may seem stupid to even mention that it was such a simple feature that laid the foundation for Skullcandy, but at that time it was ground-breaking future tech. Long story short; it worked! In a universe of black, white and boring headphones, Skullcandy stormed in with an explosion of colours. It attracted skaters, surfers, snowboarders and extreme sports lovers that already dressed in bright colours to look good on camera. It was a world of MTV, attitude and style. Skullcandy expressed the spirit perfectly.

Headphones from Skullcandy are your loyal buddy

Skullcandy has since then left their footprint on all sports branches. It has become a culture of its own that has connections to sport, music, youth, art, movies and fashion. A movement of people that do not compromise on attitude and good sound. The quality has always been a priority for Skullcandy and you can see and hear it in their products. Skullcandy inspires to live your life to the fullest and with maximum volume.

The assortment of headphones from Skullcandy has gained a lot of street credit, and that is also why they have been well-accepted by celebrities from skiing, surfing and extreme sports world. The headphones are made to be used – and abused. They can take anything. Skullcandy themselves think that it is wrong to buy a set of pretty headphones and let them sit on the shelf at home in a stupid case. We agree! Get out and experience the world, dear friends. And take your Skullcandies with you.
