Setex Gecko Grip Ultra-Thin 0.6mm Anti Slip Eyeglass Nose Pads, (5 Clear Pair) USA Made, 2500 Innovative Microstructured Fibers per Nose Pad, 0.6mm x 7mm x 16mm

I don't use them, but the son and wife swear by them. They both switched from a stand-alone pad to a frame based solution and these are what allowed this to happen easily. They are easy to apply, the adhesive lasts for months, and they do the job well. Stop the glasses from sliding down as easily and also to make up just a little distance if needed. No one has complained of anything using these, and the son swears they are the only thing that keeps his glasses secure on a hot sweaty day. A great product, worth every cent.

The Setex nose pads are a unique product that hold glasses in place much better than any other nose pad sold for this purpose. Other reviews seem to criticize price & adhesive strength: this is sort of valid, because they're cut out of the same 3M material as Chinese sweatshop nose pads, and they separate from their adhesive backing after about 2-3 months. I don't think this a downside, though, because I don't think any nose pads on Amazon AREN'T made out of this problematic material, and I've long been in the re-sticking them with a tiny dab of superglue once the original adhesive wears out. (The upside of this is that you'll know if you want the pads to be permanent by the time temporary adhesive falls apart.) If they find a better material to make these out of, that would be a dream. Nonetheless, they're an innovate product that is truly superior to other nose pads and make classes comfortable and fit better. The "ultra thin 0.6 mm" product is nearly invisible, especially in black, and serves only to improve fit without looking nerdy. Love 'em.

Now that I'm back to needing glasses daily for anything requiring detailed work such as being on the computer, any time I have to head outside, or basically any activity where I can't function with a little fuzziness from the safety of being indoors, I've found myself struggling the past couple of years mode than I remember ever needing to before to find a pair of glasses that stay on my face without slipping down my face or getting smudged every 5 minutes or just being uncomfortable. Of those issues, I was looking to find something to help me keep my main frames more firmly on my face, as they keep slipping down my nose every few minutes. This causes me to subconsciously try and scrunch my nose to keep them up when I dont actively push them up by hand, and that cuases headaches. So failing to find a solution involving something like a pair of goggles or straps (that would be comfortable and affordable), I figured the next best thing would be something to add texture or grip to the plastic nose pieces on my glasses. Mine dont have the protruding metal and silicone/plastic pads, and are rather the ones that rest entirely on your nose. Because the plastic is kind of cheap and smooth, over time your face's oil makes them slip. After some research, I found these and there seemed to be enough reviews and purchases that gave enough hope that, even if they weren't perfect, maybe they'd be good enough to keep me from having to buy new frames, which are prohibitively expensive to do. I tried both the 0.6mm and 1mm ones and can say that they rate roughly 3-4/5 stars. They're not bad for sure, and I can recommend them with some caveats: - Applying them is a little tough, as theyre small and the space youre applying them to is also small, requiring some dexterity on your part. Thankfully the pads are sticky enough that you can reapply them if you miss or they wind up crooked, but it is annoying. -Despite being sticky at first, the 1mm pads I bought were not very sticky and didnt last more than a couple of days, so I had to return/replace them (they were also way too thick and uncomfortable, although I did wind up getting used to a replacement set after a few weeks) -They do provide decent grip and functioned as intended. Even if it almost feels like the glasses want to slip down, if you gently tug on them, they won't slip down past where the pads are gripping on your nose. That said, they aren't sticky on the grip part, all they offer is texture so mileage may vary based on skin type and how much you sweat. -Personally, I think they are a little expensive for how short their lifetime is. In my experience, I think about a month is going to be the average lifespan under good conditions and normal-ish use. However, they adhesive starts to ooze out of the bottom (probably from the heat/warmth of your face), and the grip texture winds up catching dead skin, so they get nasty. Even if you wanted to keep them longer, I think for hygiene they should be swapped every month, which makes these something you'll be buy often. With all that said, if you need something to keep frames on your face and you can't afford a new pair of glasses any time soon, these will probably do the job, or are at least worth the test. I dont love the idea of being stuck having to buy these once you start, but its better than getting headaches. If they were closer to $1 a pair of pads, that'd probably be a much more fair price for something meant to be disposable and so prone to wear or possibly getting rubbed off by accident.

They help to keep my glasses from sliding down my nose. They are not hard to put on but make sure you clean your glasses with alcohol before you put them on to clean the surface good. When I put them on they will be in place. So, make sure you know exactly where you want them before you stick them to your glasses. They are not heavy at all but I got the ultra thin ones because I didn't want them to show past my glasses. They are a good fit and they are comfortable. The design is great, but they only have last me about three weeks. I don't know if I am not getting the right ones. I do not wear that much makeup because I work from home, so I know it is not that. It would be helpful if they could last a little longer for the price. But they are better then the free ones that I got from the eye doctor. They lasted a week.

These work perfectly! I've always struggled with my glasses falling down my nose, and I can't use the traditional glasses nosepieces that attach because they hurt my sinuses. These sticky pads are easy to put on and stay on without irritation. Of course, makeup will stick to the pads and discolor them, but there's no avoiding that.

Je crois avoir testé toute sorte de patins et sois ils sont trop gros et sont donc gênants soit ils sont à la bonne épaisseur mais les bord saillants des patins les rendent désagréable … ceux-là n’ont pas la même texture et ils sont réellement antidérapants… de plus leur texture ultra souple fait qu’ils ne se sentent pas du tout … oui c’est un peu plus cher que les autres mais on sait pourquoi … en ce qui concerne la tenue dans le temps je réviserai mon commentaire si besoin mais il ne bouge pas pour l’instant .

Diese Pads sind ein Lebensretter. Ich habe eine neue Brille, die aufgrund meiner Nasenform nach Einbau der Gläser hoffnungslos rutscht (durch den Glaseinbau wird der Nasensteg teils etwas geweitet und mein Nasenrücken ist ohnehin schon sehr flach). Justieren der Bügel beim Optiker brachte Druck, aber keine Abhilfe. Ich habe völlig verzweifelt, aber ohne große Hoffnung diese Pads hier bestellt und ... sie lösen mein Problem! Kein Schmerz auf dem Nasenrücken, kaum Rutschen und auch keine nennenswerten Abdrücke. Man fühlt die Pads nicht. Ich habe die in extra dünn gewählt. Zu den normal dicken würde ich nur bei sehr schmaler Nase oder deutlich zu großer Brille raten (und da ist eine neue Fassung oder eine Anfrage an den Optiker vllt doch sinnvoller). Sie halten bisher schon fast 4 Wochen bei mir - trotz täglichem Reinigen mit Wasser und Spülmittel. Teils tritt etwas Kleber aus (sprich eine weiße Haut hängt am Rand des Pads), den kann man aber vorsichtig mit dem Fingernagel entfernen. Dass die Pads sich angeblich so leicht löse, wie viele hier sagen, kann ich nicht bestätigen - wie gesagt reinige ich sogar täglich unter fließendem Wasser. Vllt eine Frage, wie die Brille sitzt und wie fettig die Haut ist? Jetzt löst sich bei mir langsam die "Geckofußtechnologie" ab, sprich die Oberfläche wird langsam glatt (es rubbelt sich jedoch kein Plastik auf die Haut) - d.h. ich würde sagen, dass ca. 1 Monat oder mehr die Lebenszeit der Pads ist bei täglicher Benutzung und auch Reinigung. Die Klebeleistung hat bis dato nicht nachgelassen, wie gesagt nur die Beschichtung. Somit ist die Dose mit 5 Sets ca. ein Halbjahresbedarf, so lange man sie nur für eine Brille braucht. Einziges Manko für mich: die Pads sind flächig sehr groß und vor allem lang, passen nicht zu jedem Gestellt. Und man sieht sie schon ein wenig. Wenn man ein schwarzes Gestell hat, unbedingt die in schwarz kaufen, sie fallen zumindest weniger auf, man sieht sie nur, wenn man ganz genau guckt. Die durchsichtigen fallen vermutlich schon mehr auf, so denke ich (außer bei transparenten Gestellen). Ich würde sagen, dass die Pads nur für größere Acetatgestelle geeignet sind, z.B. Sonnenbrillen. Für kleine Brillen Typ "Kaufhauslesebrille" passen sie eher nicht, da sind die Nasenauflagen einfach zu klein, wobei man ggf. das Pad mit einer Schere kürzen könnte. Das Gestell, für das ich die Pads verwende, ist eine Ray-Ban Elliot. Dort passen sie ohne weitere Anpassung, man muss aber sehr sorgsam beim Aufkleben sein, was etwas pfriemelig ist. Wie gesagt - für Personen mit empfindlichem Nasenrücken oder schweres Gestell vs. flache Nase sind diese Pads ein Lebensretter.

These are great, my glasses would slide down my nose all day at work, now they stay put even if I get sweaty!

After six (!) attempts by incompetent optician to adjust my new specs from sliding on my not very steep nose I gave up and looked for a different solution. This product fitted the bill and works great. Important of course to clean specs carefully before attaching the pads. Pad change every 4-5 weeks so quite satisfactory.

Spectacle bridge pads exactly as advertised. Very well made yet soft and easy to fix onto the spectacles. "Gecko" method of adhesion is excellent and pads stay in place permanently and don't move. Thin size means that they aren't really seen from the front - a good thing. Pads do the job perfectly. Excellent value for money and incredible delivery time.
