In my line of work, we run 2/0 and 4/0 "feeder cable" that we "tie in" for "distros" and it's SUPER flexible in the cold and insanely heavy. It's way overkill (and expensive) for jumper cables, obviously, but I'm looking for that kind of quality. This stuff has thick, flexible insulation that doesn't crack. Very robust. Looks like this:

We must be in a similar line of work. At work we make jumper cables out of 2/0 or 4/0 whenever a customer decides they are going to hack it up into a bunch of pieces. I noticed you aren't interested in making your own though, so good luck on your search.

I find it a little funny that all of the emphasis is being placed on the cables them selves. Sure gauge, material and length all matter but IMO, the clamps themselves matter just as much. Some designs are much better then other as far as how well they clamp on to posts (especially those stupid GM side posts). How strongly are they attached to the cable and how efficiently do they pass current? It's not just about the cables.
