German designer, Karol Baginski, has come up with a design and materials that solves the problem all geeks with iPhones have – those crappy (but still pricey!) Lightning cables that fray, get filthy and get all tangled. Yes, it’s a first world problem – but hurray! We’re in the first world, so here’s a win-win Kickstarter campaign that solves our tech boo-boos.
Don’t be fooled by the tiny cord in the image to the right – they make a longer version as well – and here’s the kicker – this cord is reversible. For realz. Reversible USB cables are new, pricey and hard to find – but you get the full package with The Woodie – the wood and braided leather cord available in Lightning and MicroUSB configurations. Their Kickstarter campaign ends in about 2 weeks and there are still some early bird (or as Baginski refers to it – early woodpecker) deals left to be grabbed before they’re gone.
