European audio manufacturer, Hër, has announced the launch of its on-ear Bluetooth stereo headphones in partnership with Selfridges. The headphone range will be available in store by mid-November.

Hër combines technology with contemporary design, with nude and beige colours. The matte metal and soft leather are high quality whilst remaining lightweight at just 200 gms and easy to store in the supplied linen bag when on the go. The extra soft ear cushions provide a comfortable fit and the frame can be adjusted to fit all head shapes so they can be worn on long flights, commutes or to drown out distractions when working out.

 

A built-in microphone makes it easy to answer calls with Hër. There is no need to dig around a handbag for a mobile phone as the buttons can be used to answer or reject calls. This feature can be used not only for phone calls but also for music so the headphones can be paused. With Bluetooth 4.1, they allow for full freedom of movement whether at the gym, at home or traveling with at least a 10m range. However, if the battery does run out, the headphones can also be used with the included standard jack cable. The headphones offer a 23 hour talk time, 21 hour playback time after no more than three hours charging.

The name Hër combines the English pronoun ‘her’ with the German ‘hör’, the imperative of ‘to hear’ demonstrating the amalgamation of the headphones’ feminine style with a strong focus on sound quality. The company aim to bring a headphone to market that is stylish as well as being actively committed to gender equality and the empowerment of women. The use of their hashtag #hearher aims to make women heard more worldwide with, at least 3% of the profits made, donated to the German Committee for UN Women.

The Hër on-ear Bluetooth headphones will soon be available in Selfridges for £99.99
