3.5mm extension cable for Apple EarPods

Anyone know where to buy or how to jerryrig a 3.5mm extension cable at least a meter long for Apple EarPods that will provide the same functionality of the Ear pod cable (stereo, microphone, volume up/down)? (One end needs to be male and the other end female). The manufacturers and/or the users of the 3.5mm extension cables sold on Amazon say that their cables do not provide full functionality.

I am using the EarPods with my 2017 MacBook Pro which resides a few feet beyond the stock EarPod cable length. Thanks for your help.

Did you look at this one? https://www.amazon.com/ARCHEER-Headphone-Extension-Compatible-Microphone/dp/B01N1VJGGE

You need a 4 pole extension cable.

Thank you for your response. I did not see that one previously—but just checked it out—and ordered it. I’ll let you know how it works—will be delivered in the next day or so
