returned this pair, found a better deal on a pair of beats. Never used these, but have heard only great things. Colors looked as represented in the image.

You know how you have the go-to pair of jeans that make you feel good? Or that go-to shirt that you always look smokin in? Well, these are my go-to headphones when I want quality, clear sound, great comfortable fit, and a clean look. Skullcandy did it right with the Aviator headphone . The sound quality is clear and crisp, and they are so light on your head you can wear them for hours on a plane or at your desk without feeling like you brains are being squished. They also look SO super clean. With the upgrades to a removable cord and supreme sound, you really can NOT go wrong here!
Good headphones!

These are well balanced. Good highs, mids, and lows. Lows are not muddy like some headphones at higher volume. They are comfortable to wear for longer periods. My only problem with them are they need some insulation. It's annoying when you can hear the cord rub when you walk around. For what your getting you can't beat the price.
Great over the ear cans

I use these every day for hours at a time. There isn't overpowering bass like with some powered model headphones (in line amp that uses a battery), but the quality of sound is 2nd to none in this price range. Every day I'm surprised at how good music sounds through them and I use these as a control when comparing production value of albums. I don't know how they would hold up to DJing abuse but I take care of my equipment and these have no issues (not to mention SK's lifetime warranty). The ear cups are made with some sort of soft memory-type foam that doesn't cause that hathead type pain that comes with iPod earbuds after 30 min of use. I've worn these for 4+ hours at a time and I forget I even have them on. I wouldn't recommend them if you're looking for headphones that block out sound and you're not going to get real noise cancellation unless you go with active/powered headphones. They dominate from hardcore to hiphop.
Buy Them!!!

I've been rocking Skullcandy buds for the last few years, and have never been properly introduced to any of their over the ear models... until now. I use my Aviators at work, at home, and while traveling. I'm tempted to buy multiple pairs so I am never without them - especially with all of the new color options available. Check out the new Skullcandy Edit site, that's my next move. I also love the mic 3 capabilities with my iPhone, the detachable cord, and the ear pads are way comfortable. Great work Skullcandy.
Ah-MAZING!

You know it's time to replace your headphones when people come to your desk and go "EWWW!"upon viewing your old, beat up ones. Did they work? Sure. Did they snap and have all the ear cup covering come off? Yeah. So I figured it was time to upgrade. And boy, are these an upgrade!
I had bought another pair of cheaper Skullcandy's and returned them a day later disappointed in the muddy sound. So I wasn't sure what to expect with these. I was specifically attracted to these because multiple reviews mentioned how good they were for rock. They weren't lying. Nice clear sound, and I can actually put the volume lower than my old headphones because the ear cups block out so much ambient noise. I like that the cord is detachable for general aux use. The carrying case is pretty boss, and even comes with a microfiber cloth to keep your headphones as shiny as the day they arrived!
Why four stars? Maybe I just haven an unusually fat head, but I found that the design of these pushes the ear cups into your head in a manner that gets uncomfortable after a while (I listen all day at work). Also, the mic isn't totally compatible with Android phones. Only the center button works, which is disappointing. It's not like Droid is some up-and-coming platform; how about a little support? Luckily, I found a cool app that lets me program the lonely center button with a multitude of commands based on the number and lengths of the clicks, so I can get it to do what I need.
Overall, I'm super happy with these, and think they're worth every penny.
best headphones I've owned

I have owned al ot of different Skullcandy headphones due to the fact that i take advantage of their lifetime warranty. and these are by far the best ones. even with your music playing loud people around you don't notice and the lows are low and the highs are crisp, the in line pause/play is great along with the volume control.
Doesn't do well with Bass

I compared the Aviators to my beloved Hesh headphones and while the Aviators where super comfortable with their super soft foam earpads and extremely crisp clear sound, it lacked the ability to bump good bass. If you don't listed to Old School Hip-Hop or Dubstep then these would be perfect, but I love my bass so I'll stick with the Hesh's which are still pretty dang comfortable and have fantastic sound and good bass.

I got to sample the improved sound of Skullcandy through the new version of the Skullcandy Aviator Headphones w/Mic3 and it does not disappoint. I think the best way to describe the improvement of the sound from the previous generation is that the highs are much more clear.
The comfort remains to be the most solid feature of the Aviator as I think they even improved on that by making the foam slightly stiffer so it'll hold it's original shape for a longer period of time.
The removable cord is also a super cool feature as you can use it for a line in from a music device to a stereo and it also can be a remote for any camera application on an iPhone. The mic3 volume functions do not work when the cord is being used as a line in, but it is a microscopic complaint and I can see why it wouldn't need to.
Overall, if you are looking for one of the most comfortable and best sounding over-ear headphones right now, get these.
