recable is handmade for you in Merseburg. We only produce what is in demand to avoid electrical waste. We source all individual parts from within a 500 km radius - with the exception of the plugs. Our COโ‚‚ footprint is about half that of standard USB cables. You can read more about this here.

How is this more repairable than any other cable? Their repair instructions are literally "get a bunch of tools, cut that thing open, resolder and reseal". Is their "repairable" aspect that they are only using shrink tubing on the outside of the plugs saving money on material too? Yeah, I bet I'll need to repair those a lot.

Also, those are some fucking expensive cables.
