Jacket Zipper Earbud Wire Holder

thingiverse

I attempted creating a small attachment that could be clipped onto my jacket's zipper to keep my earbud wire from getting tangled or flailing about. The actual clip performs decently (though I'm thinking of tightening it up), but I designed it specifically for my jacket, so it likely needs adjustment and tweaking for other jackets. Occasionally, the clip comes loose when I pull too hard on the wire, though this happens less often now that I've gotten used to it. The wire holder functions well and it's difficult to accidentally pull the wire out, although the clip usually ends up coming off before the wire does. The main issue I encountered is that adding a clip doesn't fully solve my problems and also makes moving around a bit of a hassle, but it works adequately for me to use it occasionally. For now, I don't plan on making more prototypes, but who knows what the future holds.
