I think they looking fucking awesome. What don't you like about them, people only see the stem?

That said I would not just walk around like an asshat with them in all the time or anything.

They look ok in my opinion, but as soon as I take like 5 steps when I go running, I may as well kiss them and $160 goodbye as the damn thing(s) will just fall right out of my ears.

They are not for running. They said specifically beats was coming out with a line for that.

Really? I think they look horrible and will look like people have a q-tip shoved half way up their ear canal.

And they are an open invitation for some annoying kid to grab them out of your ear.

I suppose the only deterrent people can hope for is they'll be dead soon without the case?

Like all headphones?

I suppose, but most of them are attached to you with a handy piece of wire. These are more ... invitingly grabbable.

Idk, it looks weird on person in my opinion: http://store.storeimages.cdn-apple.com/4973/as-images.apple....

And in real life: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CryDBXuWgAIJIRY.jpg

Awful

I was expecting your link to go to https://twitter.com/BenediktMaier/status/773592490217725952

I can't see them catching on, but then again I thought walking around with giant headphones looked odd but people seem to be happy walking around with giant Beats headphones on.

It does look like you've shoved a cigarette in your ear.
