They're reinforced where they should be. Finally, someone turned to solving a very long-standing problem with charging cables. I love Apple, but their cables fray too easily at the connection point. Most cables don't have extra protection, they have a connector further down where it usually wears out. I've had KINPS lines for at least a year now. Most still work and I've ordered more. Even my husband commented on how well made the KNIPS are, especially in stressed areas. Well done designers!
