hey it's ernest from chiefess dude in
this video i wanted to do a quick review
on a small product that actually solved
an issue that I was having with my
sunglasses
they're called wedgies and are an
inexpensive but effective way to keep
your glasses from slipping off your nose
as you all know I'm trying to be more
careful when it comes to my son exposure
after getting sunburned on a couple of
trips this past year in a previous video
I talked about two hats that I wear when
traveling and being outdoors today I
want to share a product that's solved an
issue of mine that was driving me nuts
especially when doing active things like
hiking but first before we get started
this is your first time here I want to
welcome you to our channel true pursuit
is a Travel Channel that is focused on
sharing ways to make travel easier
affordable and more enjoyable traveling
can be stressful and expensive so we're
looking for ways to help you maximize
your experience through Travel Tips
once a miles an innovative gear if that
sounds interesting to you please
consider subscribing one of my biggest
annoyances has been my sunglasses
sliding off my face when I get sweaty
this is particularly an issue when I'm
hiking or doing anything active outside
I tried using another pair of sunglasses
that were lighter it was slightly better
if I still had to keep readjusting the
glasses every couple of minutes plus I
just really prefer the tint and clarity
for my pair of Maui Jim sunglasses so I
wanted to find a way to wear them when
exploring the outdoors funer and I were
thinking that perhaps we should try and
get a pair of running sunglasses but
then I thought I just look around Amazon
for any solutions I had tried the sticky
nose pads in the past and while they
worked they would soak up a lot of sweat
and of falling off at the worst possible
times also they tended to ship the
lenses higher which never felt quite
right to me but I was determined to find
a better solution I came across a
product called wedgies which looked
interesting and had great reviews for
less than six dollars I got two pairs
off Amazon apparently they've been
around for a long time the website has a
cheesy TV infomercial which would
normally turn me off but I have to say
after trying them out they really work
well wedgies are basically rubber blocks
that you can add use a tip of your
sunglass arms they add a bit more
friction to the side of your head
while keeping your glasses nice and
secure even when doing strenuous hikes
and being covered in sweat I've noticed
that my sunglasses stay in place they
honestly work better than I expected
also I like that they're fairly low
profile my intended sit right behind my
ears so you can't really tell that I'm
wearing them unless you look carefully
from behind nothing that I'm trying to
be vain but I like solutions that don't
distract from the product it's like
putting your phone in the case it can
really change the look and feel of your
phone the same is true with your
sunglasses the way G's can be used with
regular glasses as well they have two
holes which allow you to fit any size
frame arm through the hole once you get
the arm through the hole you simply
slide them to the right location you'll
have to adjust it a few times until you
find how tight or loose you want them
but it's really easy do where do you
stay in place - they're tight enough to
hold their position but not too tight
that you can't adjust them if necessary
other than the goofy name I can't think
of any drawbacks to this product they're
super easy to put on and off and
honestly I keep them on most times
they're so convenient they are a bit
noticeable when I first put on my
sunglasses but I don't think I even
think about them once I start moving
around for less than six dollars for two
pairs I think these are definitely a
steal if you're someone who struggles
with this issue and doesn't want to have
to buy an ultra light pair of running
sunglasses then it's definitely worth
checking out I was ready to buy another
pair of sunglasses just for running and
hiking but now I can use my favorite
Maui Jim sunglasses which not only have
polarized lenses but also are made from
super thin glass so the optics are
absolutely incredible even though they
are heavier I can now use them as my
active sunglasses as well you struggle
with your glasses or sunglasses sliding
off your face I know there are several
other solutions out there so let me know
you found one that works well - I've
