TL;DR 1.5 m cable, instead of 1 m. Color-matched and braided.

I don’t break very many cables myself, but I’ve certainly broken a couple of Apple cables - they seem particularly delicate.

All it takes is picking up your phone without realising it’s still on charge and getting unlucky with force/angle. That won’t destroy it but it’ll damage the interface between the cable and the plug enough that it’ll start to deteriorate and eventually come apart.
