RebelRexHi RebelRex, The headband is made of leather. I'm not sure if MrSpeakers makes protein leather headbands...do you need a protein leather headband too?
CEE_TEEYeah ,I was looking to buy Mr Speakers headphones for quite some time, but the headbands are all made from leather. Is it possible to make protein leather headband too ?
CEE_TEEThat's the first thing I look for on a headphone before I even read reviews about how it sounds. A good option to consider would be alcantara, it has a premium leather-like feel but it's a man made material. Several companies already make pads out of it and it's a head strap option on Argon mk3s, so many people in the community are already familiar with it.
RebelRexSome protein leather do have egg involved, such as some of the Fostex headphones. I believe most are completely synthetic. So protein leather doesn't guarantee that the pads are vegan friendly.
