Do you mean skullcandy?
If so stay away, they are cheap and nasty.
They had lovely clear trebble but no bass - not so bad to mix with, but horrid to produce with.
Also, they are weak as piss. I broke mine just mixing, took them off one day and "snap".
Dont fall for the looks, get somthing decent. Function over fashion.

The SkullCandy stuff is okay for listening, but they aren't nuetral headphones, which is what you want for production.
Look at Beyerdynamic DT880 and Sennheisers HD555s ... Sennheiser HD201s if you are on a tighter budget.

Sennheiser HD25's. They are pricey, but will last a lifetime! they are quality and have a punchy response. I have the cheaper HD25 sp's and the bass on them is spot on! Hands down my fav mixing and producing headphones. +very loud

yes skullcandy, but they have a product called skullcrusher, supposedly really bassy but clearly not worth the investment from all the negative comments thus far

or if ya a real badman
More money than sense? Then these $2500 Swarovski diamond encrusted headphones are ideal for you.
Designed by celebrity DJ Donna D’Cruz (no, I’ve never heard of her either), they’re apparently available in a variety of colors to match your outfit (presumably also diamond encrusted).
