These jewelry and fashion inspired headphones are sure to make a statement no matter which ones you choose.

They offer high-quality sound combined with noise canceling technology. Guaranteed to fit almost any sized head, they are fully adjustable. These headphones are made of genuine leather in an assortment of colors. With their memory foam ear pads, you will be able to listen to your music in comfort for hours on end.

Prices range from $7,000 up to $9,000 for these wearable works of art.<\/p>\n Pros<\/span>The best part about FRENDS headphones is the innovative ear caps that can be swapped out at any time. Instead of having many different sets of headphones in different colors or patterns, you only need to buy different caps to keep your headphones looking fresh. The caps are easy to change by placing your palm over the cap and twisting counter-clockwise to unlock it. Do this for both caps. When putting on a new set of caps, look on the back for the words \u201cTop\u201d and \u201cRight\u201d or \u201cLeft\u201d. Match these words with the same ones on the ear piece and twist clockwise to lock it in. Do the same for the other side.All of the headphones offered by FRENDS are compatible with Apple devices. You can listen to your music with these headphones plugged into your iPhone without worrying about missing an important call. The mic gives you the ability to answer calls without having to have your phone in your hand.FRENDS headphones are fully adjustable and are designed to provide a comfortable listening experience for all head shapes. To adjust, place your hands on the bottom of the headband, just above the metal piece attached to the ear cup. Carefully push upward so that the interior of the headband adjusts. Gentle pressure should be enough to open up the arch of the headband.If you purchase a defective set of FRENDS headphones they do come with a 1-year Limited Warranty.
