The Zendure SuperCord is a family of durable Kevlar reinforced USB cables that feature stainless steel connectors and come with a Lifetime Warranty. We all have had USB cables break on us after several months of use, usually right at the connector end where the bending forces cause premature wear. This issue is very prevalent in the thin and spindly Lightning Cables for iPhones and iPads, which split and fray about an inch back from the connector.

After one year of development, designing different braiding methods, trying different quality materials and thousands of tests, they created the ultimate durable and stylish cable that comes with a lifetime warranty.  They’ll come in a slew of cable versions: Lightning, USB-C to USB-C, USB-A to USB-C, and USB-A to Lightning/Micro-USB.

They just finished a Kickstarter campaign and the product should be available shortly, refer to Zendure Supercord Kickstarter Project

First Impressions

The Zendure SuperCord Lightning Cable is brutally tough, and although I never pulled a car with it, I’ve rolled over it with my office chair, stepped on it, smashed it in a backpack, and pretty much abused it in multiple manners, and it hasn’t shown a bit of wear. It hasn’t frayed or split at the usual suspect areas by the connectors, and the connectors themselves have remained precise and crisp throughout the test period. I tested the 6-foot extended version, and I enjoyed the additional length since it allowed me to lay on my bed or in a chair with the cord plugged into a wall wart and I didn’t feel contorted while using the phone. I liked the ability to roll up the cord and secure it together with the leather strap, as it made traveling, heading to the office or the coffee shop extremely convenient, keeping it in a nice tight, protected and safe package. I highly recommend this superb and well-made cable, it’s rugged, durable, has a great feel even after many months of use and the connectors snap in like precision instruments.

This design provides incredible durability and strength, in addition to meeting the demands of your life in constant motion. To provide all-around protection for the whole cable, they made sure to reinforce the cable’s construction with Kevlar technology for enhanced durability and flexibility:

  • 400D Kevlar fibers reinforce the inner wiring for added strength.
  • 1050D individual Kevlar strands add durability and protection.

It’s made from a soft and flexible material; this strain relief helps absorb stress and reinforce the junction between the cable and connector to prevent separation. Strong, fire resistant PVC protects the circuit board and chipset inside with a stainless steel connector.
