Bang & Olufsen’s new flagship headphones

Beoplay H95 is the Danish sound specialist’s finest wireless headphones yet, celebrating their 95th anniversary. Except for the highest quality both in sound and materials, it features long-lasting comfort thanks to the over-ear design with soft lambskin ear cushions, really effective noice reduction, and a completely revamped head-band design for a cleaner look. The earpad design fits nicely around the ears and is no bigger than necessary. This shape, formed in soft memory foam, also creates good contact to the skin, which is important to block the noise from outside.

Haglöfs’ super-versatile trekking shoe

The new men’s and women’s silhouette Duality AT1 GT offers a combination of comfort, good support, and protection. It’s made of sustainable premium materials, by and for the outdoor enthusiasts. As the name suggests, it comes with not just one, but two pairs of midsoles — one for tough terrain and one for smoother surfaces — so you could basically describe it as two pairs of shoes in one. Or, simply put: next-level versatility.
