Hi all! I've done a bunch of searches on a variety of shopping sites & on the open internet, and haven't seen this, so I thought as a last resort I'd ask here.

I was hoping I could get an adapter to use my new iPhone headphones (with a lightning plug) with my late-2016 MacBook Pro, which has the old style headphone jack. It saves me carrying two pairs of headphones, and would also enable me to give the 3.5mm jack 'phones away with the old phone.

But every single search only turns up the reverse - female audio jack (Jill? heh) and male lightning. Basically, the one people buy to use their favourite 3.5 headphones with their iPhone.

So I was wondering if you've ever seen such a thing anywhere. If anyone has, I'll keep looking, but if not, I'll need another solution, so if you can think of one, I would appreciate that too!

wow, that's clever! I haven't found the F-F lightning adaptor yet, hopefully I can do that soon.
