Urbanears Re:Plattan: Eco-friendly ear cans

Listening to your favorite tunes through these headphones isn’t the only that will make you feel good. The environment-friendly Urbanears Re:Plattan are made from unused parts of past seasons but still have the same great sound quality and ZoundPlug feature. Also, when you purchase a pair of headphones, a portion of the sale goes to the protection of the Costa Rican Rainforest. How’s that for a feel-good purchase?

Each pair of Re:Plattans have built-in personal IDs with GPS coordinates that covers five square meters of rainforest that get protected when the pair is purchased. It retails for $95 and can be bought at Lukes Drug Mart (Calgary), Walrus (Vancouver), Still Life (Victoria), Canada Computers (Ontario), Moog Audio (Montreal/Toronto), and Neon (Montreal).
