## Questions & Answers

**Q: I want to use for eyewear while riding a rollercoaster. Would these suffice?**
A: Yes, these would work well. I've used them to hold my glasses on while motorcycling, boating, skiing and snowboarding. They keep the glasses on quite well.

**Q: Do the ends fit Ray Ban Wayfarers?**
A: Yes, I've been using the Chums 'upcycles' on my Ray-Ban Wayfarers for many years.

**Q: Do your sunglasses just slide in?**
A: Yes. The ends of the sunglasses slide inside the ends of the eyewear retainer. Keep in mind that they will also easily slide out if your sunglasses get caught on anything.   I use mine for safety glasses in the lab -- it adds a touch of color and keeps my safety glasses handy.

**Q: Is this pink or orange??? Says orange at the top orange in the photo and pink at the bottom and labeled as pink in the cart. Wanted Hi vis orange.**
A: Mine were black
