Philips, for me, are bang on with their new products right now.

There is no regurgitating of old product, just for the sake of it. Philip’s are producing items that we need, that we want.

When I heard that Philips were collaborating with O’Neill, I was very excited by the prospect.

It’s like Barbie getting together with Ken. This great match has given us a set of headphones that have all the hallmarks of O’Neill styling, coupled with the technical and audio quality that Philips bring.

Their new, ahem, baby, The Stretch headphone is an awesome masterpiece of endurance, style and audio power.

No other headphone can match the toughness of the Stretch. It was made for skaters, clumsy people or just anyone that wants to look like a dude. (I think I tick two of those boxes)

Beautiful little touches like the detachable cord from the headset make these headphones stand out from the competition.

Inspired by the heavy-duty materials and styling of wetsuit materials, The Stretch headphones deliver high performance. Both impact and high stress-crack resistant, it retains flexibility and strength for a whole new level in headphone resilience.

The Stretch maintains its toughness and durability, whether you’re in the most extreme conditions – be it the hottest place on earth or the coldest climate down to -250C temperatures.

Nick Andrews, senior manager, Consumer Marketing at Philips, comments: “This range realizes the synergies of Philips’ simplicity and innovation and O’Neill’s set of core values based around the concept of innovation in style and technology. Our new headphones are totally uncompromising in their durability”.

The coolest cans I know…Philips, well done with yet another stunning product.

The new Philips / O’Neill Headphones are available at The Philips store online for £99.99.
