Several players involved in the World Cup have been spotted wearing unreleased Beats over-ear headphones over the past two weeks, and United States men’s national soccer team star Antonee Robinson is the latest to be spotted with them. Robinson was captured in a photo on his Instagram account wearing a two-tone version that appears to feature a white headband and housings but with royal blue earpieces.
Previous versions of the earbuds seen in Yamine Lamal’s photos only featured one color, and it’s unclear what color options will be available to the public, whether the earbuds will be swappable to customize your own set, or whether Robinson’s set is a custom version produced just for him or for a limited number of influencers.
The unreleased headphones first appeared in a US Federal Communications Commission database last month, and it’s clear that Beats is undertaking an influencer campaign throughout the World Cup to generate anticipation ahead of a public release, but the timing of their availability remains unknown. It’s also unclear whether these will be a new version of the existing Beats Studio Pro over-ear headphones or whether they will be positioned as a new product.
