New York – Fashion
headware supplier Kangol and headphone company Aerial7 have teamed up for a
line of hats with built-in headphone speakers in the earflaps.
Aerial7 said it has
developed “an ultra-slim superior quality Sound Disk” that is inserted into
specially constructed Kangol jacquard earflaps, also incorporating a microphone
which is compatible with mobile devices such as the iPhone and Blackberry.
The Kangol x Aerial7
collection is expected to be launched nationally in “fall/winter 2011” but the
companies will give New York music lovers first crack at the line “in very
limited quantities” for a limited time beginning this Friday, Feb. 25, at 6:30
p.m. exclusively at the
on Sixth Ave. in Manhattan.
The hats will retail for
approximately $100.
The house disc jockey at
Limelight Marketplace will wear the hats while DJing during the limited time
they are offered.
Kangol is also offering
an email giveaway of the hats. Those interested can email their name and
address to

Winners will be chosen at random. Only one entry per person is allowed.
