Tweedz Headphones Blog

Tweedz Braided Headphones are made with travelers in mind. Our durable, tangle free design is meant to help you make it through your journey with a little less hassle and a lot better sound quality.

But the real question is...now that you've got your headphones covered, where should you be checking out for your next adventure? That's why we recently launched a new column - Sights, Sounds, & Salivation: A Travel Guide for Music Lovers.

There are plenty of travel guides out there, so we're going to provide something a little different...a travel guide with a focus on local music. It won't only cover music, but we'll look at 3 things not to miss in a recommended destination, keeping the music lover in mind. One sight, one sound (music venue, record store, band, etc), and one salvation worthy restaurant.

Our first trip takes us to Austin, Texas. Follow the link for 3 things not to miss in Austin.

Looking for a fun weekend trip or only have 24 hours to explore a new city? We're here to help. Keep coming back for more travel tips for music lovers.

At Tweedz, we love to explore new places. Sights, Sounds, & Salivation: A Travel Guide for Music Lovers, is our '3 things not to miss...' travel series that focuses on providing a few tips from our travels - exploring one essential sight, one sound (music venue), and one salivation worthy restaurant or culinary experience from a city worth checking out. If you only have 24 hours, be sure to fit these stops into your trip.

As a music lover, you use your earbuds everyday.

So you know that your headphones need to be able to handle the wear and tear of daily use.

Whether it's during exercising, studying, while travelling, or just at home relaxing - your earbuds get faced with a lot - sweat...pets...pockets...tugs...the elements...you get the idea.

Plastic headphone wire can wear down and get stripped over time.

That's why the core element of Tweedz's design is our unique braided headphone cable. It's simply more durable.

We use 100% nylon to wrap our wire, similar to the material you see on professional climbing ropes and touring musician instrument cables. The fabric braiding protects the wire from force and friction to help keep up with your busy life - tunes intact.

So if you're tired of seeing your plastic headphone cords wear down too quickly, give Tweedz a try.

Update:  Tweedz was recently named one of "The Most Durable Earbuds of 2015"! We're glad that people are noticing the durability benefits of nylon braided headphone cords- it's tough stuff.
