Anker. They make quality cables and chargers. Nomad seems to make a pretty nice cable, but I do not have one. I’m sure someone here who has one can chime in and share their thoughts.

ESR Braided Lightning Cable tested very well by

Of note, the 2m Apple cable did quite well, while the 1m (comes in box w/iPhone) performed poorly.

Anker cables have served me well. In the 2 instances where they failed, their customer service team replaced them free of charge.
I cannot find a cable with the following specs... Lightning to USB3, MFI, 1m (3 feet), white and braided... nope i just cant!

Hello zoran,
Is this Belkin what you're looking for?

I’ve been using the Caudabe ChargeFlex Lightning USB-C to lightning cable for a little over a month. The cable feel durable and is 5ft long. I have the usb adapter piece attached to the cable so I can use CarPlay in my truck. I buy extras when Caudabe have a sale to keep as backup.
