Chums Floating Neo Eyewear Eyewear Retainer

My husband and I live on a lake and ride our Sea Doos A LOT. Not long after we started riding, I did a drive-by to splash him and I blew his Ray Ban's right off his face (and into a watery grave since we didn't use these Chums yet). That was a bummer. We got these floating Chums the next week and we haven't ridden without them since. I see several people mention that they should be longer, but for our purpose they are the ideal length. If they were longer they'd be rubbing/bouncing on the backs of our necks when we ride. As is, they fit to where they really don't do that. I have a normal-sized head, but my husband has a big noggin (had to special order his football helmets in college) and the Chums fit great on both of us. The biggest hurdle with these is getting the darned things ON the sunglasses. The ends that go over the sides/end of the sunglasses are extremely small and fit very tightly. However, once they're on they don't slip... ever. We have glasses dedicated to watersports and leave the Chums on them so it's a pretty easy process. These would be a pain if you had to take them on and off though. I am buying my second set now - getting brighter colors. The first ones I got were black (all that was available at the time) but having them colored would make them a little easier to see. The only time they come off our heads is when we jump or fall off into the water. They do a great job of floating and have saved us lots of $$ replacing sunglasses. Highly recommended if you are extremely active on the water. It's a huge bummer when you're out having fun and lose your sunglasses (blinded). These pretty much make that something you don't have to worry about!

I don’t like to wear straps on my sunglasses. I find them very irritating. This strap is great. My sunglasses handles are very wide . It hugs them great and easy to put on them . The strap doesn’t sit on my neck and goes under my hair well. Can barely tell it’s there . Tested the floating feature. It’s great. Only thing that’s annoying is it’s hard to push my hair behind my ears when it’s on my glasses but I would rather deal with that then lose my $350 prescription sunglasses when on my jet ski .

I am very impressed with the quality of this brand, but the length of this particular item was too short for me. The description didn’t provide much information for me to assess its length, hence only 4 stars in the review. However, I found another product by this brand and ordered it. I’m not returning this item because there will be instances where I’ll want it instead.

these work great, i swim a lot in the lake so i wanted something that would keep my eye glasses a float. these did just that. they are a little tight around the neck, but work perfect for eye glasses since i never take them off. i did take them off and make sure the floated. kept them on top of the water and the hi-vis green makes them east to spot

These floaters are incredible, when I say I face dove into the water SEVERAL times at a high rate of speed and these things didn’t budge I mean it. My glasses not once got knocked from my face despite my constant lack of stability trying out my ISUP. Comfortable for wear both regular and crashing. The color is bright which I love. The only down fall is the straps could be a bit longer but I’m glad they’re not as it would likely get caught on my multiple trips into the water.

I like these - I really do...BUT I am giving them just 3 stars because so far, my son has lost 3 pair of glasses (in less than one month) while skiing. They don't hold very tight in the event of a fall. They float great, and we always find them after the fall, but the lake has claimed his glasses to its bottom floor. I guess I need to figure out some way to tie something to the arm of the glasses, feed it through the CHUMS, and then tie it to the other arm of the glasses and affix the CHUMS to the arms after....kind of a back up of sorts.

Great look but the design needs some revision, they don’t exactly stay on, like more than likely if you had these on your glasses wouldn’t fall off but overtime like 6 months to a year, they’ll get loose and start to just fall off the glasses, perhaps some elastic bands could eliminate this problem.

These work great and are comfortable to wear. I got a pair for myself and one for my husband for a recent trip to the beach. We played in the waves and once or twice his glasses fell off, but with these attached they floated and were easily retrieved. We live near a lake and play in the water all summer long and I know I'll feel more secure with these. My husband wears semi expensive sunglasses and I wear prescription so it's important that we not lose them. They were comfortable to wear and easy to take on and off the sunglasses as needed. Excellent product that works great!

When swimming in the sea or pool in really bright sunshine then wearing your shades or specs is not only comfortable you can see whats happening !, (I have prescription lens)if the normal glasses on chain retainer was used if they became off for any reason then down they would go, these Chums do the opposite they float with your specs intact, I tried them in the sea, mildly rough conditions in Cyprus and in the pool with no risk to losing my vision. They come in various colours so they will not go un-noticed if they come off. easy to attatch to the glasses arms and secure. A good idea and they work.

Good quality

Ever since my son lost his glasses in one of the water activities during our holidays, he is now using this guard as well as he has seen how this has saved his Daddy’s glasses. Wonderful!

Aunque no leí bien que eran para flotar cuando uno va a meterse al agua, estoy muy satisfecho con la compra. Yo los utilizo en lentes de seguridad a los que se les dedpostillaron las patitas y me molestaban detrás de las orejas. Con este aditamento se solucionó el problema y, aparte, se ven muy bien. Voy a llevarlos a la playa en mis próximas vacaciones.
