After more than a decade Apple has partnered with Hermès for the first time For a special collaboration with the Apple Watch, the French luxury goods manufacturer has released a new collection of leather-wrapped charging accessories for Apple mobile devices. The most expensive option is A Multi-device wireless charger in a box Made from the brand’s signature gold-tone calf leather, it will set you back $5,150. For comparison, the 14-inch MacBook Pro starts at $1,699.
At the other end of the set’s pricing spectrum — which is still far from cheap — lies the $1,250 price tag Hermes Paduk Solo The charger features a wireless charging pad wrapped in the same calfskin leather and decorated with saddle stitching. Hermès doesn’t list the charger rate, but says “at least 20W of power is required” so it will likely support more than 15W of power delivery. And while a 3.3-foot USB-C cable is included, Hermès isn’t bundling a power adapter with any of the luxury items in the new collection.
Prices go up from there. A Double-sided wireless charger, $1,750 The Paddock Yoyo can accommodate an Apple Watch or any Qi-compatible mobile devices when flipped over. A A side-by-side alternative is called the Paddock Duo It can wirelessly charge two devices simultaneously at the same price. All three of these chargers can be bundled with leather cases of various sizes, with the $5,150 Grand Paddock being the largest. They all offer extra space to hold accessories like cables and the power adapter you’ll need, but the Grand Paddock offers more than that.
