Default Glasses Neck cords

The arms on my specs are fairly uniform in cross section. When I use a
traditional neck cord it tend to slip off the arms. If I use sports neck
cord , the arms are attached to the cord using a neoprene sleeve with
the cord ( with a boot lace end fitting ) pushed one end of the sleeve
and the arm of the specs in the other, this again relies on friction and
again tends to fail with the cord pulling out of the neoprene

Anyone know of a better solution ? The right sort of glue in the sleeve
perhaps ?.


I have some where there is a small rubber block, with a slit in it, that
pushes over the arm. The cord is attached to a hole in that. A bit more
obtrusive but works well.
