By: AfterShokz Rolling out over the next few months, AfterShokz will be made available for in-store demo, as Office Depot will incorporate it as part of the headphone listening stations, which will allow customers a chance to appreciate the unparalleled value of the open ear experience firsthand. Office Depot’s fresh mission of “connecting what is cool” has the retailer focused on bringing consumers a vast assortment of technology that reflects continued innovation and category-leading product introductions. They’re collaborating with brand partners via standout marketing initiatives to do so, and in the case of AfterShokz, the tactical focus on increased public safety and situational awareness will be a central element in the brand’s differentiation. “Headphones have played an increased role in accidents for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers, due to environmental isolation (sensory deprivation)— “The open ear style and listening experience distinguishes the AfterShokz brand; and while an increase in situational awareness makes sense, that value doesn’t always translate until you’ve had the chance to try them out for yourself,” said Tom Lee, the Vice President of Merchandising at Office Depot. “In order to provide that all important hands-on experience, we’ve invested in interactive show and tell displays so the consumer can get closer and familiar with the product.” AfterShokz bone conduction headphones are an evolution of the sport and Bluetooth headphones (http://www.aftershokz.com/ The lightweight and moisture-resistant wraparound headband curls over the ears securely, providing complete stability and comfort during activity. With nothing nested inside or covering the ears that could potentially block ambient noise, users are able to remain alert and situationally aware, staying connected to both what they are listening to and nearby conversations or important warning sounds with ease. Additionally, AfterShokz proudly serve the hearing-impaired community as the open ear design allows for their use despite some forms of hearing damage and without removing hearing aids; and those with vision impairments that rely on assistive GPS instructions via headphones can simultaneously hear environmental noise allowing them the ability to remain acutely in touch with surroundings. AfterShokz headphones are currently available for purchase on Office Depot's website (http://www.officedepot.com/ About AfterShokz AfterShokz brings patent pending bone conduction technology, initially developed for military special operations and law enforcement by Voxtech in 2001, to everyday sport, mobile and Bluetooth headphones. AfterShokz offers consumers a more comfortable, healthy and safe listening experience with several innovative models of open ear stereo headphones. Unlike conventional headphones and earbuds that use the eardrums to transmit sound, AfterShokz open ear headphones sit comfortably in front of the ears and transmit sound through the listener’s cheekbones to the inner ears, bypassing the eardrums completely.
