The 3.35 x 8.00 x 8.00 cm headphone case comes in a matt black and weighs just under 24 grams. Of course, this is only suitable for the smaller in-ear headphones and not for OverEar copies or huge gaming headsets. The headphone case can be zipped up and, thanks to a small net inside, offers a secure hold for a USB stick or, for example, SD cards.

For those who find black a little too dull, AliExpress also has a colourful version with cartoon figures. Hello Kitty, Stitch(Lilo and Stitch) or a minion I could recognize at first sight.

As an offensive against cable clutter this little case could be my salvation, another way to get out of the way would be to switch to Bluetooth headphones of course. However, a headphone bag might not be so wrong, as the small earplugs have great potential to get lost in the backpack just because they are not attached to cables.
