## Description

Buy Croakies Premium Leather Cord Fashion Eyewear Retainer (24 Inches, Black): Eyeglass Chains - desertcart.com ✓ FREE DELIVERY possible on eligible purchases

Review: Seems premium - time will tell (Lasted FOUR YEARS!) - I really like the sturdiness of the leather. The rubber bands seem sturdier than other eyeglass chains I've had. The single thing I'd change is to make it just a few inches longer. Maybe I just got used to the previous one, but this seems to get caught on my ears, collar etc sometimes. I'll revisit this review in the future depending on how long it lasts intact. Update April 2018 Bought in July 2014, used daily until rubber band broke today. Leather held up great! This is the best eyeglass holder I've ever had. It outlasted and outperformed every chain, rope, etc I've ever used. I'm giving it 5 stars & reordering Update August 2022 Finally became unusable because ferrule came off strap after tiny metal retaining ring broke. Rubber bands tended to last as long as not overtightened, although they slide on my 3mm titanium frames. Last time I tried to buy my 4th one, they were out of stock, so I bought others that I didn't like. This style rolled leather wears like iron and is neither cold in winter like chain, nor catched in hair or shirt. I'm ordering a couple more.
Review: Works for me! - I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of this. I needed a cord for my craft glasses and after reading some not-so-good reviews, I decided to take a chance on the brown cord. A few weeks later and I'm very happy. The cord is great quality and is perfect for every day wear and tear. My baby even yanked on it a few time and no damage. The leather is soft. The brown is very dark and goes perfectly with my tortoise shell glasses. This is great for men and women. It's not dressy or fancy and t doesn't get caught in my hair. Very happy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product for what it is.
*by W***N on January 9, 2017*

These are a good length, and are much thinner than most other glasses keepers. I've had one pair for a few years, and they have held up well, although as with anything leather, they've lost some of their gloss with use. (I've never tried polishing them.) I've used them on wire-rimmed sunglasses as well as a couple of different kinds of reading glasses, both plastic rimmed and wire rimmed. Croakies uses what I consider odd nomenclature, calling the adjustable ends which snug up to whatever size the temples are on your glasses "spec ends". The ends on these work fine, although I've had others which hold more tightly: the Croakies use a rubber band to snug the rubber end, whereas some brands use a metal bead. In my experience, ones with a metal bead hold better. The Croakies do seem to be made of premium materials, as the ends have held up better than some. My main wish would be for an option for an adjustment bead on the back of the cord, not as a replacement for these, but as an alternative for those who want or need to adjust the length of the cord, or to help hold glasses in place, say for sailing. I often am juggling reading glasses and sunglasses, and would love to be able to adjust the length.
