The perfect gift for yourself… or a friend

Skullcandy Hesh 3 Headphones

Whether you’re taking a plane, train or automobile home for the holidays, a new pair of headphones will make the long travel hours immensely better. The are perfect for loud bus rides or drowning out the white noise of a flight. Skullcandy has a reputation for producing very colorful headphones, making them easy to spot. However, the Hesh 3 come in all black or gray, for a more professional look. But don’t worry, they come in red and blue too. It’s typically stressful traveling with new electronics, especially headphones because you don’t want them getting destroyed in your bag. But have no fear. The Hesh 3’s fold up into a compact size, making the perfect size to stash in a carry on. As a little bonus, Skullcandy will throw in a stylish travel case if you purchase the Hesh 3’s at one of our Soundbalance, iStore or Headphone Hub. This is worth keeping in mind if you’re looking for a last minute gift before you arrive home.

The major design change in the headphones is in the shape of the ear cups. Skullcandy previously used a circular design, but have since switched to more of an elongated oval. This is meant to better fit the ears and provide more comfort. Perhaps the best feature on the headphones is it’s absurdly long battery life. You’ll get 22 hours of tunes at a full charge. That means you could theoretically drive from Pittsburgh to your grandma in Houston for Thanksgiving and still have battery life left.
