Designed for the Apple 5 watt adapter ~ iPhone 5/5s/5c, iPad Air, iPAD mini & iPods.
Personalized. Connected. Portable.
Jakket was inspired by my family – we all have the same white adapters, same cords and mine kept disappearing. I suspect that most of my missing chargers have been ‘borrowed’ by one of my family members. I spent a lot of $$$ replacing lost or borrowed chargers so, I began searching for something better than a sharpie to identify what was mine and something that would keep my cord connected to the adapter. After a long search, I couldn’t find anything so I handcrafted a cover with a strap from supplies found at a local craft store – and it worked! Jakket was born and the journey began…a simple solution for common problem.
REWARDS. We offer unique rewards at each level rather than multiples of one product. While each of our rewards are unique, we also offer you the flexibility to choose your colors and JAKKET swag options.
PRODUCT DESIGN. Several iterations of JAKKET were drafted and many prototypes made. What you see in the photos is a urethane prototype made from a silicone mold. The CAD drawings are complete and we’re ready to cut the steel mold. The final product will be made of Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) which is a hybrid material – a mixture of hard plastic and soft silicone.
PATENT PENDING. The JAKKET Project has been well thought out and we are ready to begin the next phase of our journey. JAKKET has been self-funded to date with investments made in legal guidance, the patent process, and prototype design. Initially, manufacturing will done in the USA partnered with local experts.
WEAR-ABILITY. There are many ways you can wear a JAKKET. There’s the Sidewinder, the Bow Tie and the Docker, just to name a few. And, when the docker is plugged in, you can actually ‘dock’ your iPhone on top of it! You can adjust the length of the strap depending on where your USB port is positioned (high or low) and which side you choose to insert your adapter. JAKKET will accommodate most cord lengths. The Red JAKKET shown below on the left is a 3′ lightning cable and the Orange JAKKET on the right is a 6′ lightning cable.
DURABILITY. JAKKET can save you from losing your charger and it can extend the life of your lightning cable. To preserve your adapter and cord, we recommend you keep them connected with a JAKKET and loop your cable in a larger circular fashion similar to the Orange JAKKET illustrated above.
COLOR OPTIONS. Identify each of your charging devices with color! We currently have nine awesome colors to cover multiple device chargers and to coordinate with your cases: Red, Black, Navy Blue, Orange, Army Green, and the 5C color series, Green, Yellow, Pink and Blue.
COMPATIBILITY. JAKKET fits the Apple 5 watt adapter and lightning cord for the iPhone 5, 5S, 5C, iPad Air, iPad mini and new generation iPods.
GOALS. Our initial goal is the minimum amount needed to cover the cost of the steel mold and first production run.
