If you’d like to connect a USB C connector to your favorite garment to make a fun wearable tech project, then try out the array of sewable connectors we have. This is a Type C connector oriented horizontally to the sewable base it’s housed on, with red and black wires running through the bottom.

The jack is molded into a rubber that can be hand or machine-sewed through, then connected to the power wires on the end. Red is positive/power and black is negative/ground. You can also glue, epoxy, or staple it to a flat surface if desired.

Please Note: Like many USB C cable adapters we’ve found, the CC lines are not tied to anything and so this will not respond properly to USB Power Delivery (PD) requests. If you want to use it to charge a device, make sure your power adapter will default to 5V output if CC is not connected. Macs, specifically, are picky about requiring CC lines.
