Hi, just wondering if you have any tips for installing these - I’ve been trying for several minutes with no luck, even after adding a little detergent and using all my hand strength
Hey there Laura,
I'm sorry it's been difficult! They should just pop right in. Shoot me a message at Hello@gladeoptics.com if you want and I can send you a video of me doing it on mine!
Love it
Fits the sunglasses but the hole for the rubber peg is very tight
Great singlasses at a super price!
Still very difficult to attach-any suggestions?

Pretty hard to get them connected to the glasses, but work great once you can get them on.
Have to agree with what others have said. Bit of a struggle to get the retainer attached to the glasses. I can’t see it separating. Looking forward to many days on the river with these
The Paracord Retainer is most excellent.
Hard to install but works well once you get it on
I like that chord and glasses are designed so that the chord integrates with the arm portion of the frames with a small plug-in thoe catch. Hopefully it does not wear-out over time. Will need to wait and see.
I like the paracord material look and feel. I will leave them on because the connection seems like it might wear down if I remove and connect multiple times. We’ll see
Curt,
I sent a message as soon as I got them. They Freestone glasses are great and the paracord
retainer once I got it on is quality. You have a great pair of glasses at a very fair price.
I have Smiths and Costas and these are on par with both.
Good luck with the business, I'm certain you will do well.

Sunglasses dokt slip off my face anymore! Great addition to already awesome sunglasses.
I'm on the water a fair amount of the time, so this paracord retainer is very handy. Fits well in the sunglasses with a little effort and keeps my sunglasses out of the lake or ocean!
Does what it do. These are necessary component if you buy the Verbier shades because, unfortunately, the shades are not going to stay in place for any appreciable amount of time without these.
Great accessory. Looks good, easy to install.
Thanks so much Erik!
Bottom line, company and people that make Glade are top notch. Phenomenal product, incredible service. If Glade makes it, I will not buy it elsewhere.
Nice design
A bit tricky to smoosh into the hole in the glasses, but hasnt budged since its been in. Lower profile that regular cords for the glasses. nice design!!
Thanks for the feedback dude!
The cord pairs well with the glasses. It stays in place, is very easy to adjust, and can simply be taken on or off as you please. Just a simple snap is all it takes. The only downside is I don't think you'd be able to use this with just any other pair of sunglasses
The Paracord Retainer is easy to use. The designers at Glade understand that people do not want to struggle putting this type of accessory on their shades.
Awesome!!
I don’t usually purchase retainers since they are usually uncomfortable
I went for these turns out there very comfortable the way they snap in place is fantastic no bothersome numbs around my ears great job glade
Great for use on the water
Don’t think it will last very long, the prongs have already bent
Love the integrated retainer system on the Glade sunglasses. So much nicer than the chums I have on my Oakleys.
Fit glade glasses only with hole in ear piece.
Nice that they don’t slide onto and distort fit of glasses.
