The Studio Headphones are a pair of bulky gray headphones. They feature large dull-gray ear cups with circles of air vents and black cushions. A light gray stylized squid is painted on the middle of each ear cup. A thick padded band connects both pieces with a thin black bar arching over it, splitting itself on separate ends.
The Studio Headphones come with Ink Saver (Main) as the primary ability. As a 2-star item, the Studio Headphones come with two additional slots for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail or 30,000 cash for each slot. Since
they are made by the Forgegear brand, they have a higher chance of rolling Special Duration Up and a lower chance of rolling Ink Saver (Sub) to fill their secondary ability slots.

Players of the Splatoon Global Testfire who pre-ordered Splatoon were temporarily given a version of the Studio Headphones with Ink Recovery Up as their main ability as part of a then-exclusive set of gear. It did not carry over into the full game, however, since the Global Testfire did not create save files.
