TL;DR 1.5 m cable, instead of 1 m. Color-matched and braided.

Not sure what kind of insulation they use in their cables. It sure feels nice and rubbery, but they seem to be falling apart regardless of how you use it after a few years because the insulation got brittle over time. Are they using natural rubber or something? I live in the tropics so the abundance of UV makes rubber products fall apart faster here. Hopefully braided cables last longer.
