Diesel’s wired earbuds look exactly like wired earbuds from Diesel

Despite evidence to the contrary, not only are wired earbuds alive and well, they’re enjoying a resurgence. Brands like Belkin and even respected headphone maker Master & Dynamic now offer tethered earbuds again. Even the Italian fashion brand Diesel has decided wired headphones are still cool and has launched a pair of earbuds it describes as being “designed for fearless daily use.” We’re not entirely sure what that means, but these earbuds definitely look distinctly Diesel.

Diesel’s website doesn’t go into details about what drivers you’ll find inside its 60458 Wired Earbuds, but images reveal they’re designed to connect to mobile devices over USB-C, and include an inline remote with volume and playback controls, a microphone, and a sliding switch to mute the mic. The earbuds have a silver finish, but the chains wrapping the wires and attached charms (capitalizing on another trend) are actually made from less precious metals like aluminum and zinc.
