Item # 409015

REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

Comments about Croakies Eyewear Retainer:

Hey, for whatever you do while wearing sunglasses or eyeglasses, these Croakies are the year-round/all-weather best way to keep them from slipping off your face. Unless you burn these or else lose them altogether, this inexpensive little item will last you for many, many years. (PS--they're easy to clean, too, so they don't get nasty and gross even if you sweat like a pig and drag them through dirt)

Comments about Croakies Eyewear Retainer:

Great product! I was kayaking in the surf around the outer banks when my boat flipped. When I swam to shore I noticed the glare, then I noticed my sunglasses were missing. I swam back out and grabbed my floating sunglasses and continued on with my day in the outer banks with my sunglasses happily in hand

Comments about Croakies Eyewear Retainer:

I bought my Croakies at the REI in Bloomington on my way to the Boundary Waters. I never lost my sunglasses during the trip but then again they never fell off my face. I did test them on the last day to see what would happen if I dropped them in the lake...and it kept my sunglasses floating for at least a minute, until the material soaks thru! The strap is also soft so it is not terribly uncomfortable to wear. They are a little hard to slide onto my sunglasses but I guess that's a good thing because you dont want them falling off. They aren't very stylish though so I only use them if I'm in the backcountry or Canada. I would never wear them around town. Good price though!
