Great Cable (with a nitpick)

It's a great cable overall. The braiding is solid and the length of the connection is just the right amount. It loses a star for me because of the connectors themselves. Both the wrap on the USB sides and the color on the aviator (which looks like it was just spray-painted) are a little haphazard. Certainly not a dealbreaker on usage, though.

Lovely coiled cable.

It matches the Serenity set well. It’s my first coiled cable and it’s great!

The colours do match. But Quality? Just standard stock cables.

I'm gonna have to copy it from my other answer because the feedback is exactly the same: The colours do match. But Quality? "Standard stock cables" Nice colourway! However, the build quality might not be for everyone. This applies to most cables out there.

The Coil: After several months of usage, it is normal that the coil will 'loosen up' due to normal stress we put on when yanking the cords – slinkies style. It doesn't affect the usage, just the aesthetics. 'Recoiling' is non-trivial to average users. Will still look nice enough after a year (or two).
The Aviator Connector & The Ports: This.. I will complain. USB-C ports are quite prone to breaking especially when the wires are just soldered to the port and wrapped by shrink tubes. Adding more structural support would compromise the design. Just be very careful. The USB on the other side is stronger.. nothing much to worry about that. Aviator connectors on keebs look awesome as always but compared to smaller connectors like LEMO, Aviators feel clunky. They do break sometimes due to wear and tear (stress) on the wires at the soldering points. The Aviators are powder coated – they might feel & look cheap to you. BUT the worst part is that these huge connectors made of metal can put scratches and dents on your precious keebs.Just be very careful. Learned it the hard way.. multiple times.
The Cord: Nicely done. Nothing fancy. Just be aware that it will collect dust, but due to this colourway, it's not that noticeable.

Great colors

This is the first aviator usb cable I've tried before. I was a bit surprised at just how big the connector is between the coiled part and the other usb cable. Also, I misunderstood the pictures and thought this was more dark blue / navy, but the color is actually like a bluish-purple. Indigo, perhaps. The blue and white is clean though. No complaints.
