If you thought Apple accessories were getting expensive, Hermès has just taken things to a completely different level.
The luxury fashion house is now selling a range of MagSafe-compatible chargers priced from $1250, with some models going well beyond that price.
At the entry point, the Paddock Solo Charger is a single-device magnetic charger priced at $1250. If you step up to the Paddock Duo at $1750, you can charge both an iPhone and an Apple Watch at the same time. Furthermore, there’s also the Paddock Yoyo, also $1750, which adds a wraparound USB-C cable designed for travel.
And if that somehow isn’t enough, Hermès is also bundling these chargers with its leather cases. This pushes prices anywhere between $3725 and $5150, firmly into top-end MacBook territory.
The big sell here isn’t functionality – it’s craftsmanship. Each charger is wrapped in Swift calfskin leather with traditional saddle stitching. It is finished with a subtle “H” logo to help align your device on the magnetic pad. It’s classic Hermès: understated, premium, and unapologetically expensive.
That said, the actual charging experience doesn’t sound all that different from standard MagSafe gear. You’ll still need to bring your own 20W power adapter, as one isn’t included in the box. This is a move that mirrors Apple’s own decision to stop bundling chargers back in 2020. You do at least get a USB-C cable in the box.
Hermès and Apple have worked together for years, particularly on high-end Apple Watch models and bands. However, these chargers aren’t currently sold through Apple itself.
For most people, this is clearly overkill. But for Hermès buyers, that’s kind of the point – it’s less about charging your phone, and more about how you do it.
