Frends launches new headphone collection

Today, Frends is excited to announce the next chapter of their brand with the arrival of their premiere headphone collection, available at Zumiez, Burton Flagship Stores, Urban Outfitters , and your finer action sports and specialty retailers across the country. Frends was developed by professional snowboarders Keir Dillon, Jack Mitrani , Danny Davis , Kevin Pearce, Scotty Lago , Mason Aguirre, and Luke Mitrani , and is dedicated to developing quality consumer electronics. Their products are inspired, designed, engineered, field-tested and built to meet the same parameters that they have for each other. Just like a friend, these headphones are strong, reliable, original and dependable.

“Frends was founded with the vision of providing electronics accessories that enable youth and lifestyle consumers to create, inspire and connect,” said Frend, Keir Dillon. “We are really proud of our first line and we worked hard to deliver products that push the boundaries of electronic design and deliver unexpected results. We tested our gear out on the hill, at parties and even in hot tubs, to make sure that the products were ready. Basically, we broke our stuff so you wouldn’t have to.”

Frends built their headphones from the ground up, using the entire crew for inspiration and for the most honest research feedback anyone could ask for. The first installment consists of four styles, ranging from ear buds to overhead models, with prices from $30 to $60. All headphones are ergonomically and asymmetrically designed to fit your head, and each include top line features such as tangle-free material cords, iPhone and Blackberry compatible mics and custom tips. This attention to detail ensures that your experience is unmatched—whether rocking out to your favorite jams or answering an important phone call from the boss.
“We really can’t wait for people to check out our new headphones,” said Keir. “We have your back (and your ear), we won’t rip you off, we won’t leave you out in the cold, and we will always be there for you—that’s what Frends are for.”

ABOUT FRENDS

Frends is a crew of pro and bro snowboarders who are separate and unique beings, but are bonded together creating one body, much like the most awesome robot warrior of all time, Voltron. Some cliques tend to block you out. You don’t get invited to their parties. They don’t let you in on their funny inside jokes. They don’t even tell you about the best new music they’ve been hearing. We at Frends think that is lame. We want you to be our friend. We want you to join our crew. Even if you’re not flying down the mountain with us, or up late-night singing awful karaoke renditions of “Sweet Child of Mine” with us at a dive bar – you’re with us in spirit, and we’re with you.
