“Always use the correct tool for the job, son, it will make it easier!” This is what my dad would tell me and I have grown up to realize he was right. Too many times I have struggled at home only for him to turn up with the correct tool and be finished in seconds. But still I am rather partial to a multi tool, they have their place in my life. 

With a name like Skoog this product could be absolutely anything and to be honest once I had taken it out of the box it still had me baffled however with the tag line, “music for everyone”, I was really intrigued.

When it comes to headphones, I would usually swerve past Skullcandy, having been burnt by their lower range in-ear headphones about five years ago. Since then, I was addiment that Skullcandy were cool-looking but poorly made.
