The rubber band dilemma
Ok, time for the community to rally behind a cause and come to the rescue of a confused design department.
That was a joke. We are not actually confused, but we’d like to open the subject up to a larger audience.
Help us choose please. We have two types of the rubber band.
Both are black to match the chassis, but there is a difference:
- One has the logo letters sticking out (raised)
- The other has the logo letters impressed (inset).
Which one do you like better?
I could tell you which one we like, but I want to conduct a clean experiment
Google doc it, comment below, email or use headfi-org thread. Your call.

Bands with inset letters feel better in use but will catch more specs of dirt, lint, whatever.
Bands with raised letters will not feel as good to handle but won’t catch dirt. They will also be more “grabby”.
I prefer inset – no big deal to clean them occasionally.
