Louis Vuitton is launching $995 headphones

If you thought Apple's meme-worthy AirPods were a viral status symbol, then wait until you get a look at Louis Vuitton's ultra-luxe monogram wireless Horizon earphones that are set to retail later this year.

For the storied French house's first-ever foray into the audio market, it's collaborating with Master & Dynamic, a New York-based audio brand company to offer super stylish auditory accoutrements.

The earbuds come in four colorway options—attention-grabbing red monogram, simple-yet-sleek black, classic white, and yellow and blue LV stripes—and offer up to three-and-a-half hours of listening time on a single charge. The retail price is $995.

To house your new equipment, LV is offering a concave-shaped stainless steel charging case that is available in white for the matching earbuds and black for the other three color combinations. The charging case also provides the earphones with a total of ten hours of battery life, perfect for your on-the-go lifestyle and next jet-setting adventure.
