Canadian retailer Better helped design the ivory-colored wireless earphones, with the NBA logo on one side and blue and red ear tips to match. The Better logo is featured on the opposite side, with the Beats logo featured in blue and red as well.
The latest Powerbeats Pro design was announced by Apple today:
The latest collaboration between Beats and the NBA brings a mix of nostalgia and everlasting quality with Canadian based brand and retailer Better(TM) Gift Shop to create a special edition set of Powerbeats Pro.
