Sunglasses slipping - advice please

[Ejbirdy]

Hi all - it's warm it's sweater and my peskie sunglasses are slipping off my nose. I've looked at the accessories like head straps etc but I was wondering if anyone had a brand of glasses that simply grip better and are more purpose built for running ?

Thanks kids - happy Sunday !

When I did my service many moons ago, we had glasses with coated wire loops to hold them around the ears. Didn't come off running. Didnt come when crawling. Pretty perfect, except not very pleasant.

I found some really cheap black sunglasses from H and M that fit really snug on me, I wore them for the whole marathon!! I would suggest trying on as many as poss and jumping up and down to see if they stay on!!!!!

I got my optician to tighten mine.

Do you need them to see or just to stop squinting? If it's just to stop squinting, I have a £20 pair of bolle wrap around sunglasses that I bought 10 years ago for skiing (they weren't a skiing pair, just what I used them for) and because they have rubber on the ends and are a nice snug fit they don't slip. I also have a hat since I found although the glasses would stay, I couldn't wear my headphones at the same time :s ah the joys of accessorising! I agree with juicyju......go try on lots of pairs until you find some that are comfortable but snug

temple hooks - £3 on ebay...

they are pretty much invisible except when putting your glasses on and off, but they work really well. I use them everyday and on my sunglasses.

I find supergluing them to my nose always works well.. keeping them ON is never a problem, its getting them OFF that's the bu66er!!

Sometimes I DO tie them onto the bolts on my neck though...

failing those ( helpful tips) I look forwards to seeing LOTS of people in Boots wearing sunglasses and jumping up and down ( a la JJ) all at the same time...

be a sort of HU ' flashmob'

Hi - I see you have ordered yours already but in case anyone else is looking... I bought mine in Lidl's for about £6 they are CRIVIT & come with 3 different lenses, arms and interchangeable strap that both work for running + 2 cases. Apparently Aldi have them sometimes too. I have found them on Ebay in case anyone is looking now: ebay.co.uk/itm/like/1915966...
