A Colorful Danish and Swiss Collaboration Spans a Runner?s Distance
Swiss sports brand On and Danish luxury audio brand Bang & Olufsen collaborate on a pairing aimed at runners.
When luxury Danish audio brand Bang & Olufsen went to the drawing board to design their first dedicated sports earphones, the Beoplay E8 Sport, it was with the sweaty duress and demands of daily runners in mind shaping the earbuds’ most integral features. To further emphasize its bona fides as a runner’s essential, Bang & Olufsen recently announced a limited edition collaboration with Swiss sports brand On to offer the “ultimate running kit”.
The $199 ON Cloudboom features twin CloudTec cushioning, a single layer of engineered breathable and lightweight mesh, and a carbon-fiber infused Speedboard, technologies aimed at half and full marathon runners seeking a fast and supportive. The highly limited Beoplay E8 Sport On Editions differentiates itself from the standard edition and its more luxuriously leather-wrapped counterpart, the Beoplay E8, with subtle detailing; emblazoned on each side are Bang & Olufsen?s and On?s respective minimalist logos, highlighted with hued aluminum rings and a cloud pattern, with a translucent Leaf Green colorway complementary to its matching footwear equivalent, the On Cloudboom.
Intricate design elements such as a ridged gripped detail on the earphones helps adjustments when fingers are wet and sweaty. The case is also Qi-enabled for wireless charging.
