Chums Universal Fit Rope Eyewear Retainer

I really like these and these work great for Oakley glasses!! I’d read the reviews for all products that your looking for a crockies is the term I’ve grown up to. Look at pictures for the ends of the ropes so you can see if they will fit your eye ware, false looking will lead you to a bad purchase just wanted to get that out and across.I really like these because they are under $5 they feel great around the back of your neck when you have them on your glasses or sunglasses. I’d have to buy a different set because I already know that this pair won’t fit for my sunglasses but not why I’m writing this review! The rope feels good, it’s lightweight and overall can’t really complain you know! It doesn’t break the budget and they can last a long time if you use it for what it’s intended for. I bought these for my everyday glasses because I’m tired of my glasses falling off my face when I’m at work, or other scenario’s you can think of. So I got these. They came quick in the mail, and they work like they said in the description that they would do. I’ll buy more anytime.People please have common sense and please read other peoples reviews. Or look at the description and pictures. From there you will find what your looking for and you don’t have to buy something you’ll just end up returning.

My glasses are really loose on my face and i have job that requires a lot of bending over. So my glasses are always falling off my face. These really help keep my glasses on my face. They’re adjustable and very comfortable. They also blend in with my hair color, so you barely notice i have them on. The price was very reasonable and the durability was excellent!

I lost a pair of Oakley sunglasses a couple weeks before I ordered this after I set them down, and they mysteriously walked off about 1/4 of a second later.So, I got these for the new pair. I have the Flak Jackets, and they honestly do not need a retainer they have what feels like a very small possibility to fall off, but I wanted them so I don't take them off in shady spots on the water.They attach to the very back end of the Flak's, and they attach tightly. They are kind of a pain to use with them because the added weight makes the Flaks ride up your face, but after playing with the position of the strap for awhile you can get it to sit comfortably.Overall, I wore them for about 7-8 hours with very minimal discomfort or aggravation. They work well, and work for their intended purpose, but lost a star because of the extended length, extra weight that makes wearing them difficult.

UPDATE: almost 2 years later (1 year, 11 months)The Chums are still working out very well. The rubber attachment pieces haven't worn through. On the one day that I decide to go without them is the day that I lose my Suncloud Mayors. I think I left them at a restaurant. Anyway, I replaced my Sunclouds with a pair of Smith Bauhaus sunglasses. The Chums do very well holding my new sunglasses just as well as they did with the Sunclouds. The Chums never let go of the sunglasses. I primarily use the Chums to stop me from putting my sunglasses down somewhere and losing them. They work perfect for this. The Chums don't get in the way when I'm wearing my sunglasses so I never know they are there until I take my sunglasses off my face and let them hang down over my chest. I like this version of Chums because the rope hangs down my neck and back when I'm wearing my sunglasses on my face rather than sticking straight out into the air and I also like the fact that this version looks a bit more classy but can still fit into a hiking environment. I highly recommend these Chums.----original review below---So far, so good. I keep them attached to my Sunclouds. I'll update later on wear and tear.

I was hoping that by paying more I could find a solution that would last way longer than dollar store straps. But the rubber stretched out and after a few months of use the straps constantly fall off the glasses. The way these are designed, the rubber just grips a few millimeters on the end of the glasses. I think they would work better if they could slide on further.

Good material

As the title says, these do the job for my pair of Oakley Radarlocks, and very well at that. I needed a pair of retainers for my new pair of Radarlocks after an unfortunate accident with my old pair of sunglasses in the surf, but I didn't want a bulky pair of retainers like a lot of the ones you can get for cheap. These fit the bill. The rope is slightly larger than the diameter of paracord and slightly more rigid too. The ends are rubber material that you work over the ear stems (see below). The only other component of these is a rubber cinch that allows you to tighten or loosen how much slack is behind your head. Cinched all the way up to the base of my skull, these feel about as secure as it can get. I still wouldn't swim with these in the ocean, but several hours between the beach and a bright pool resulted in no movement.As a note for those who will be using these with Radars or Radarlocks, it can take a bit of doing to work the rubber pieces over the ear stems due to extreme friction between the Chums rubber and the Oakley rubber material. In the end though this seems to provide an even tighter grip between the glasses and the Chums.

I have to wear prescription glasses unfortunately and don’t really wanna try contacts. I also love rock music. Me and my friends realized DRI was going to be playing our town and I knew I wanted to hit the pit. I wore my glasses in a pit before without these things and had to deal with them almost falling off. Wore my glasses with this rope on it and they never even came close to falling off since I had it pulled tight. Pit tested, pit approved. 100% would recommend
