House of Marley Smile Jamaica AUX Wired Earbuds with Microphone, Noise-Isolating in-Ear Headphones, Tangle-Resistant Cable, 3.5mm Jack Sustainable (Rasta)

Best wired buds I've ever owned and I've had them for a while now. I recently discovered a small crack in one bud. Sounds exactly the same. I've almost ripped the cord off these so many times and stepped on them so much it's a miracle they still work. Not only do they work but there better than my Bose Quiet Comforts and louder too!

[***UPDATE after six months of using both the JBLs and the Marleys (I returned the others): SOUND: The Marleys have consistently better sound than the JBLs across music genres -- crisper highs, deeper bass, and a fuller spectrum overall...in fact their excellent sound quality rivals some much pricier earbuds I've had and doesn't disappoint in any way. BUILD: The JBLs' design is better suited for use while exercising, being outdoors, etc. They're water-resistant and can endure a lot of jostling before they dislodge, and the magnets are a handy feature for storing, so there is definitely a role for them. That said, the build quality of the Marley pair punches well above its price point and with the woven cables, wood-capped buds, etc. has even a bit of a subtle luxe feel to it. SUM: If I were to choose just one of these, it would be the Marleys. I'd pay $75-100 for these and still feel that it was a good value. (Don't get any ideas, Marley folks...)***] I compared four low-cost (under $20) wired in-ear earbud sets: JBL Endurance Run 2 House of Marley Smile Jamaica Skullcandy Jib Lodos Omnitone I listened to pieces from four contrasting genres that I enjoy, represented by: Heart "Magic Man" (rock) EBTG "Wrong" (techno) Coltrane & Hartman "My one and only love" (jazz) Ginastera "Estancia Suite: Danza Final - Malambo" (classical orchestral) On each of these pieces, I rated each earbud (1-10) separately for clarity of treble, depth of bass, richness of middle, and overall "fullness" of the sound spectrum. The aggregate results for sound quality were as follows: 1. 7.9 Marley 2. 7.6 JBL 3. 7.4 Ludos 4. 6.7 Skull Some individual observations about sound: None of them had much trouble with treble (not surprisingly). Marley & Ludos were the clearest, producing a crystalline "sparkle" across all genres, especially Rock & Jazz, but none of the earbuds disappointed on treble. The biggest differentiator was bass: Marley & JBL produced noticeably deeper bass than the other two, especially the Skullcandy. Although they were not especially good on Classical (scoring better only than Skullcandy), the Marleys were fantastic for Jazz; JBLs were very strong as well. Marleys were best for both Tech and Rock -- although the sound they produced there didn't surprise me as much as it did on Jazz -- with JBLs being second for both. Build quality for both the Marleys and JBLs is both very good -- I'd even call the Marleys "fun," given a few thoughtful and tasteful elements they added -- with the JBLs gaining an edge due to water resistance, fuller mounting construction that allows earlobe to carry most of the weight (= more comfortable) and magnetized buds that will help minimize clutter, risk of getting caught on something; my only build suggestion would be a 90 (not 45) degree plug to minimize exposure to getting hit. Ludos construction was decent, just not quite to the level of the other two. Skullcandy build quality is certainly adequate for a $10 pair of earphones. I am keeping both the Marleys and the JBLs: Marleys for use in home/office, JBLs for exercise/outdoors/travel.

If you are looking for a special earbud, “House of Marley” will be your choice. This earbud is for those who need to use at least 5 hours, specially winter time. This product is comfortable for in-ear allowing noise-isolating from outside. Also, the design of this product is eco-friendly by using Forest Stewardship Council-certified wood and recyclable aluminum. Here are some summary of strength of this product. • Design: Eco-friendly • Noise-isolating • Special Story • Reasonable Price Why I Recommended as Customer? Personally, I chose this product because the House of Marley has a story that attract customers’ attention. You may have heard about the musician name, Bob Marley. He was a famous Jamaican singer-songwriter. Bob Marley was interested in environmental responsibility, which is the main reason why this product is made of eco-friendly materials. As you have been noticed, the product that had a unique story of why it made makes different from other company’s earbuds. Furthermore, it also makes owner feel special because of this story. Return back to product’s strength, this earbud is comfortable when you carry it. Most of the other earbuds’ string is easy to twist. Winter time, specially, earbud’s string is contracted and it is hard to untie. However, Marley’s earbud’s string is made of fabric codes that do not twist easily. Even if there is a frictional sound when you close to your clothes, it will not be annoyed you when you listen the music. The sound of music was clearly delivered when I used it. Other reason that I decided to purchase is because of reasonable price. I used earbuds everyday so it is easy to lost and cannot be used for long time. I needed to purchase every 6 months so the price is the important point to decide a final purchase. I think this is the product that satisfied what I need both price and quality. Therefore, I would recommend this product. YOU WILL NOT REGRET.

The House of Marley Smile Jamaica Wired Headphones are honestly a solid find. For the price, the sound quality is surprisingly good—clear mids, decent bass, and overall really balanced for everyday listening. They also do a nice job with noise isolation, especially considering they’re not over-ear. The built-in mic works well for calls, and the braided cable feels sturdy and tangle-resistant, which is a nice touch. Plus, the wood accents give them a unique, eco-friendly vibe that stands out from other earbuds. They’re comfy for long listening sessions, super portable, and just feel like a well-made product with some personality. Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a stylish, no-fuss pair of wired headphones that deliver great value.

Design ricercato, ottimi materiali, robuste a partire dal cavo, utilissimo e comodo il Jack di connessione orizzontale. Qualità del suono oltre le aspettative con una buona definizione dei bassi rispetto alla fascia di prodotto. In chiamatai sente bene sia il chiamante che il chiamato. Complimenti per il packaging eco friendly in carta e di dimensioni ridotte Unico neo hannol solo il comando pausa ma detto ciò che può essere marginale davvero un acquisto consigliatissimo.

Nice product look so professional.Nice wood

My second pair. They sound great and last a long long time.

Love these in ears, beautiful design and great sound, bass mid treble are perfectly balanced, recycled materials as well! i recommend them! :D

The only thing I don't like is that the fabric around one of the headphone's wires had an opening in it. It still works great, it's just an aesthetic issue.
