In an already crowded audio industry, does the world need more luxury headphone options? Probably not. But that didn’t stop Montblanc – known for excellent craftmanship and design – from entering the space, a departure from its usual pens, watches, leather goods and travel accessories.
Built for luxury and to meet the demands of the jet-setting traveller, the Montblanc MB 01 Smart Headphones are a first for the brand. Designed with travel in mind, they are compact, foldable, noise-cancelling and have a long battery life. Made from aluminium and robust silicon, and developed with sound expert Alex Rosson, the headphones not only look great, but also sound great.

- Active noise-cancelling technology;
- 20-hour battery life;
