I haven't found anything else that can do what these do. I wear eyeglasses for distance, but most of the time I'm doing stuff close up. These keep my glasses handy at all times, so they and the Croakies are around my neck constantly. I use wire temples on my glasses to maximize peripheral view, so anything too bulky looks dumb. These don't, and it also helps that they just hang smoothly off the ear hook without any clips, pivots or angles. I wear them when working outside, so they'll get pretty sweaty, but all I have to do is squeeze some soap through them and rinse, they dry quickly and look like new. They're durable too - one set lasts for years!

I bought this retainer because my glasses have spring loaded arms and, despite the fact that I had the nose pads changed to silicone, my glasses were constantly sliding down my nose while playing ball. I was a little concerned that, because the arms on my glasses are pretty small, this retainer might not fit, despite the fact that the description indicates they are for glasses with small arms. However, to my relief, the retainer fits very well and it slides up the arms of my glasses with just enough effort to provide confidence that it will not slip while not being a nuisance to put on. Now, if anything, my glasses are too well retained and it took a while to get used to not pushing them up all the time. Fortunately, the strap is very easy to adjust by sliding the retainer on the back which is very important since you can't be certain that the strap will be installed in exactly the same position every time. All in all I am very pleased with the retainer and I cannot think of any negatives at all. Shop around on Amazon thouhg as I found that, if you don't care about color (I bought a blue one for less than a black one) you might be able to save a few dollars.

These are getting hard to find and when used as follows, can't be best! Slide the ends all the way to the frame hinges on both temples, secure with a couple half-hitches of strong thread and sweaty, slippery wire temples are a thing of the past.

Works great however I ordered red and they changed the order to black.
