Unlike Nothing ear (1), the new, limited-edition Transparency Series headphones from Skullcandy are not literally transparent. Well, at least not entirely. The “transparency” in the Skullcandy Transparency Series is being transparent about its environmental impact.
Every product has an impact on the environment. Rather than saying it has none or denying consumers of an essential accessory (you know who they are) on the pretext of saving the environment, the new Skullcandy Transparency Series acknowledges the inevitable impact and the fact that it cannot completely eliminate the impact.
However, the Transparency Series aims to be 100% transparent about its impact on the environment and laid out what Skullcandy is doing to contribute to a cleaner world.
Kicking off the new Transparency Series with net-zero footprint are a pair of wireless headphones dubbed Hesh Evo and a pair of TWS called Jib True 2. Both headphones are designed to create visibility around environmental impact while progressing Skullcandy’s commitment to carbon reduction.
Moreover, a portion of the proceeds from the sale of these headphones will benefit the nonprofit organization, Protect Our Winters.
Instead of getting fancy with an all-out transparent design, the new, limited-edition Transparency Series headphones bear a striking, nostalgic clear-color aesthetic that is perfect for drawing the attention of a new generation of eco-conscious users.
