Popular accessory maker Twelve South has today announced the "SurfaceSnap" cable management solution.
SurfaceSnap features a genuine leather band, polished metal button snaps, and a strong semi-permanent adhesive to attach it to a surface. Twelve South assures that SurfaceSnap's adhesive can stick to almost any smooth surface and leaves no residue when removed, allowing it to be repositioned elsewhere.
SurfaceSnap is primarily designed to offer a slim, aesthetically-pleasing alternative to bulky cable managers that use weight to hold cables in place. The button snaps make it easy to add or remove cables, and Twelve South even suggests that the SurfaceSnap is ideal for travel.
Each pack includes two single-button cable managers and one double-winged cable manager. The Twelve South SurfaceSnap is now available online for $29.99 in Black or Dove Gray.

Or a 2 cent piece of tape? Or get fancy with a strip of Velcro with adhesive on the back side? What's with all these grossly overpriced accessories for Apple products???
THIRTY DOLLARS? For something that sits behind your desk/nightstand/counter, etc? Just buy some cheapo cable clips from Bezos' outfit and put them on. I usually love twelve south stuff. But this is outrageous.
Not sure what you plebs are going on about (jk). This obvious is not in most people's budget, but Twelve South does do the lower-end, Amazon-listed stuff. These look nice and are unobtrusive. Plenty of people will love them.
Budget has nothing to do with it. Every single person here can afford a 25 dollar product. Itβs just silly as hell
