Renowned NBA artist Victor Solomon brought his iconic gold embellishments and bespoke basketball-inspired designs to this year’s NBA All-Star Weekend in collaboration with Bose. Fresh off a dazzling Reebok collaboration, Solomon teamed up with Bose to create a custom pair of Ultra Open Earbuds for Indiana Pacers All-Star Tyrese Haliburton.
Adorned in a striking gold finish, the earbuds feature a cuff-shaped design and bespoke plates inspired by the pebble texture of a basketball. Crafted by the NBA’s own trophy supplier, the earbuds serve as both a statement fashion accessory and a top-tier technical offering, complete with diamond-set basketball seams.
“We polished, machined, and gold-plated the pieces to achieve their final form, all presented in a carved crystal basketball holder,” reads an Instagram caption detailing the creation process.
Solomon and Bose also released a video showcasing the artist’s meticulous craftsmanship as he brings the Ultra Open Earbuds to life. The video highlights Solomon’s hands-on approach to creating the bespoke earbuds.
The custom Solomon x Bose earbuds were gifted to Haliburton during the weekend’s festivities. Fans can admire the intricate design in the gallery above and purchase their own pair of Ultra Open Earbuds from Bose’s official webstore.
