グラスホルダーでフェスを快適に!「もう落とさない」おしゃれで便利なサングラス対策

Make festivals more comfortable with a glasses holder! A stylish and convenient solution to prevent sunglasses from falling off again.

If you wear sunglasses on a daily basis, you've probably experienced this at least once.
"I want to take off my sunglasses for a moment, but where should I put them?" That's the kind of small, indescribable feeling of unease.

Sunglasses can be a real pain, especially at places like outdoor festivals.
I want to keep my luggage to a minimum, and I can't carry a case. I once tried hanging it on a T-shirt, but then I dropped it and had a frightening experience.

When you want to concentrate, when you want to relax, when you just want a bit of clarity.
The problem of not knowing where to put it after you take it off becomes even more severe in situations like festivals.

The hardest part about sunglasses is taking them off

There are surprisingly many moments in our daily lives when we take off our sunglasses. When concentrating on a document at a cafe, when looking at our smartphone, when taking off our mask... I myself have often found myself walking around with my sunglasses in one hand, or simply leaving them on a random table, only to later find myself searching for them and thinking, "Huh? Where did I put them...?"

Especially when I'm out and about, I often put them on the edge of a desk and almost drop them, or I can't find the case when I try to put them away in my bag. To be honest, I never thought that something as simple as "taking off my sunglasses for a moment" would cause such small amounts of stress.

It was at that time that I came across an item called a "glass holder."

What is a glass holder? Its surprising but useful benefits

A "glasses holder sunglasses" is an item that allows you to hang your sunglasses around your neck. It is shaped like a necklace, and you can use it by hooking the temples of the sunglasses onto a ring or hook.

When you try it out, you'll find that this simple item is surprisingly useful.
When you want to take off your sunglasses for a moment, you don't have to go through the trouble of putting them down somewhere or putting them away in a case. Just hang them around your neck even when you're out and about, and you can use them immediately and put them away quickly. Just eliminating one small stress that you may have been feeling unconsciously will give you more peace of mind.

A particularly big benefit is that you no longer have to search around wondering, "Where did I put it?"
It's not something that you would take for granted, but it's something that makes you feel comfortable.
I think that's the appeal of glass holders.

To be honest, I thought it was an item for older people.

However, there was a bit of resistance at first.
To be honest, I have the impression that glass holders are for older people. The designs tend to look a bit old-fashioned, and many of them seem difficult to coordinate with fashion.

But recently, my impression has changed.
There are an increasing number of stylish designs, such as simple leather types, slim chain types, and those made with colors and materials that blend in with clothing, and many can be used as "accessories." I also chose a silver chain type at first, but now I can wear it with both T-shirts and jackets without feeling out of place.

Tips for choosing the right glass holder for you

Glass holders come in a wide variety of materials, designs, lengths, weights, etc. You'll want to choose one that suits your lifestyle and fashion.
I've tried a lot of different things myself, and here are some points that I found useful to check when choosing.

1. Balance of length and lightness

If it's too long it can get in the way, and if it's too short it can be difficult to hang your sunglasses on. The key is to find a length that's just right and lightweight enough to not put strain on your neck.
Choosing something that is light and easy to use will make it easier to use on a daily basis. Ideally, you should actually try it on to make sure that it doesn't feel uncomfortable even when worn for long periods of time.

2. The impression changes depending on the material and design

Leather bags have a more subdued feel, chain bags have a more modern feel, and cloth or nylon bags are more casual.
If you choose one that matches your style and the occasion, it will be easier to incorporate it naturally. Recently, there are many unisex designs, and they are becoming increasingly popular as gifts.

3. Don't forget to match it with your sunglasses.

If the frame is thick, it may be difficult to hook it onto the ring. It is recommended to check the size and holding strength of the sunglasses you are using in advance.
Choose something that will provide strong support for your favorite frames so you can use them every day with confidence.

Glass holders come in handy in situations like these:

In outdoor situations like festivals and camping, there are many times when you wish you could take off your sunglasses for just a moment.
However, with minimal luggage, no storage space, and sand and dirt on the ground... It was precisely in this environment that I really felt the value of the glass holder.

Moments I felt were good at the festival

  • When you're eating your way around an outdoor gourmet area , you want to use your hands and take off your sunglasses. But they don't fit in your pocket. In those situations, it's really convenient to be able to hang them around your neck.
  • During the excitement before the show , when you're jumping and dancing, your sunglasses can slip off and become a hassle. But placing them on the ground is dangerous. With a glasses holder, you can remove them on the spot and put them back in place quickly.
  • It's great that you don't have to search for a place to put it when you're in a tent or taking a break , lying down, or changing your hat.

Not only is it convenient, it's also stylish

Fashion is one of the fun things about festivals.
Glass holders are the perfect accent for simple T-shirts and shirt styles, and rather than interfering with the look, they make you think, "Wow, that's a bit sophisticated."

Since I started using a glasses holder at festivals, I've found I can handle my sunglasses more comfortably.
I no longer have to search around wondering, "Where did I put it?" and I feel like I can now enjoy the music and the atmosphere to the fullest.

Summary | I found an item that satisfied both my "looks" and "functions"

At first I thought, "Glass holders might be a bit plain," but once I actually tried using one at a festival, I couldn't let it go.
Especially when you're outdoors and want to reduce the amount of luggage you carry, just being able to remove it and use it right away makes a huge difference in how light and nimble you feel.

Furthermore, recent designs are also stylish. They blend in naturally with festival outfits and have appeal beyond just practicality.

"It's not a problem if you don't have it, but it makes the festival more comfortable."
Such was the glass holder.
