Designed with input from athletes and customers, the headphones also feature improved button placement among other advancements.

The TRI 2 PRO includes H2O Audio’s patent-pending PLAYLIST+ technology—an industry first—allowing users to download and store streaming music directly onto their headphones for offline play, even underwater.
