Hermès has entered the charging accessory market with a $1,250+ line of MagSafe-compatible chargers wrapped in calfskin leather. The luxury French brand offers three models: the $1,250 Paddock Solo for single-device charging, and two dual chargers at $1,750 each—the Paddock Duo and the Paddock Yoyo with its wraparound USB-C cable.

Each charger features Hermès' signature Swift calfskin leather casing with meticulous saddle stitching and an H logo over the magnetic charging spot. The chargers require separate 20W+ power adapters (not included), with Hermès only providing a 3.3-foot USB-C cable, mirroring Apple's 2020 shift away from bundled power adapters.

The new chargers extend Hermès' partnership with Apple that began in 2015 with Hermès-branded Apple Watch bands. Bundles with matching Paddock cases range from $3,725 to $5,150, positioning these accessories as premium status symbols rather than practical charging solutions.
