Beats by Dre hits the baseball diamond with limited edition MLB themed Studio Wireless headphones


When it comes to high-end personal audio, Beats by Dr. Dre have become a household name, even though there might be quite a few households that can’t afford them. Nonetheless their products are marketed so very well that the brand is highlighted all over the place. Even the knock-offs help them get noticed in places where one would aspire to own and original but can’t afford it. Like Apple (it’s no wonder they bought the brand for themselves), the brand finds its way to the big screens and small with appearances in movies, TV shows, ads et al and now their diversifying further by collaborating with sports teams in the MLB.

Now America’s favourite pastime, Baseball, has joined forces with “America’s favourite” personal audio company to deliver specially designed Beats Studio Wireless headphones for sports fans. A total of five teams have joined the Beats family – San Francisco Giants, L.A Dodgers, Chicago Cubs, Boston Red Sox, and the New York Yankees. These sports teams have joined an “elite” group of brands that include the likes of Fendi, Alexander Wang, MCM and even Hello Kitty who are helping drive Beats’ real-world presence to home plate.
