I know Rafael, and I'm sincerely sorry for them :( There are people (and brands) who have products based solely on their looks. Because trust me when I tell you that Skullcandy is absurdly bad. But that's why there are portable headphones that are meant to be used outdoors, and can look good while sounding amazing, unlike anything Skullcandy has ever made. And this is why I'm telling you that doing some research before buying things really means the difference between paying a lot for something that might look "cool", and paying less for something that looks just as good and doesn't sound like crap.
