Stockholm, Sweden — Sept. 10, 2018 – Urbanears today announces its collaboration with Chinatown Market.

Plattan 2 Chinatown Market Edition
Urbanears is a design-driven brand that loves to challenge conventions and norms on what can be done and how things should look. Urbanears’ minimal, functional design was ideal for the collaboration with Chinatown Market. It gave the brand a dark gray canvas to produce these simple, yet stylish, headphones embossed with the classic Chinatown Market “Smiley” logo.
The Plattan 2 is a staple in the Urbanears line-up, featuring a flexible 3D Hinge, extra isolating ear cushions and clear, well-defined sound. It boasts all of Urbanears’ iconic details — like the fabric cord, built-in mic/remote and music-sharing ZoundPlug.
