Still Rocking the SkullCandy

As I was walking home today, I was bouncing around to Peter Bjorn and John’s “Writer’s Block” album. It was a cool fall day and I was totally enveloped in the music. As I walked into my house, I took my headphones out and my world got quiet. I looked at my iPhone and headphones and smiled…

George G Smith Jr's Skullcandy Headphones

In May, I received a few pairs of headphones from Skullcandy as a gift. I’ve used them every day since and they look just as new as they do in the picture above – which was taken right after I opened the package. I absolutely love these things so much so, that I was visibly saddened when I realized I left these at work over my long weekend trip to Izeafest. As someone who has a deep and profound love of music and currently a pedestrian, a good pair of headphones are mana from the gods. I can’t imagine living without my Skullcandy earbuds.

Giveaway: Of the things I did receive from Skullcandy, I do not use the Double Agent pair. I opened the package and tried them out and, while they had great sound quality, the fact that the music was run off an SD card and couldn’t be hooked up to your iPhone wasn’t for me. So here’s the deal – if you comment on my blog, I’ll pick a winner at random and send the Double Agents (My pair is lime green) to you. Consider it a gift to my loyal readers.

    For the record, I'll include comments made until 12am Mountain Time on October 7th (so a little over 27 hours from now)

    I met the skull candy gals at MacWorld one year and they blinded me into buying a cheap pair of headphones from them. Amazing the power women have over men

  • GeorgeGSmithJr

    You didn't like their headphones? Maybe I've just never had a quality pair before these, but these have outlasted every pair I own….

  • smockonallama

    They were ok but they were a really cheap pair that they sell at a convention. They don't sound the greatest and they are uncomfortable. Their other headphones that I have owned are great. It's just the cheap ones that suck.

    I've heard a lot about them, but I just use the stock Apple earbuds…

  • ladyurbain

    I look forward to winning a pair of these. SkullCandy rocks.

    Interesting… I don't think I've ever heard of headphones like that before. It sounds convienant!

    I just realized today I have no headphones. They always seem to break.

  • Alex

    I'd love some lime green earbuds. Pick me!

    I'm on my third pair of headphones, and I haven't found the best pair. *Crossing my finger*

    Actually, because you like Thom Yoarke, I will gladly accept your headphones.

    I've got a pair of Lynx Audio (LoST CaUZe edition) headphones I picked up at FYE a year ago that were in a damaged box for $30. They normally retail for $120. These are huge studio or DJ type headphones, and they're awesome, but I think I'd love to win the Skull Candy headphones for more portability. Plus they're hella stylish and green is a great color! Wish'd I'd had a pair with me at IZEAFest this past weekend, had a few moments where I'd love to just tune out the world and chill from being social for just a quick break. Know what I mean?

    Hey G,
    I don't like the fact that they cant fit into the iPhone, That disqualifies me… but I'm still commenting because it seems like the in thing right now. :)

  • narilia

    Dude, I'll totally take those off your hands. :)

  • mandibone

    I could always use a new pair of ear buds. Little fingers are always breaking mine.
