Belkin makes one, but I have no experience with it.

Anker used to make one, but it looks like they've pared down their offerings.

One thing is for sure -- a shorter cable is going to be more expensive by unit.

I was looking for a 12-20" cable for a while, and reluctant to pay more for less, but finally bit on a BF sale.

Normally, the high-volume 3'/1m are the only ones that go on sale. The shorter ones at full pricing actually cost more.

Had a couple of the Belkin ones in the past and both of them developed issues and refused to charge. Wouldn't recommend them unless they have somehow improved the product.

I use the anker powerline+ 1ft ones and they're a decent size for portable power banks and for connecting my phone to my laptop. Very durable cables too
