Kim Kardashian andAppleare finally teaming up to bring you Beats earbuds that come in a range of neutral colors.
As part of the Beats x Kim collaboration, theBeats Fit Protrue wireless earbuds will be available in tones called Earth, Dune, and Moon (going from darkest to lightest).
The focus from Apple and Kim has been on how these more muted colors (or “signature minimalist style” if you listen to Apple’s Eddy Cue) and are designed firmly from a fashion point of view, with no changes to the technical capabilities of the buds anywhere to be seen.
However, if you’re set on picking up one of these new collaboration earbuds, you don’t have long to wait - and the great news is that the tie-in won’t command a higher premium, which is great to see.
They’ll be available to purchase online atApple.com/kimfrom August 16, and you can pick them up at select official Apple Stores from August 17 for the same price as a regular pair of Beats Fit Pro ($200 / £200 / AU$300).
This includes Apple’s New York store on 5th Avenue, and its Regent Street store in London, but not the newly Brompton Road store thatgave us a packet of seeds.
