Items are difficult to replace. It's not the manufacturer's fault, it's an Oakley design issue. They work well and allow you to extend the life of those expensive glasses!

I've found that genuine Oakley rubber products (earmuffs etc.) don't stretch or loosen like headphones from other brands often do. The nose pads hold better and the earsocks don't slip off. You may have to pay a little more for Oakley branded products, but there is definitely better quality versus a higher face value.

The original earplugs fit perfectly in the half jacket of my bulletproof vest. I've been following various videos on You Tube for pretty easy donning. The hardest part was getting the templates out of the frame and putting them back in. Otherwise they glide effortlessly with a little soapy water.

I have the third set of these Oakley rubber glasses cases on prescription. I live in Florida and bask in the sun a lot. The problem is that the rubber is degrading faster than expected and feels very sticky, which means it's time to replace it. However, I'm grateful that Oakley continues to supply them for older frames like mine.

I needed new ear and nose pieces for my AA original. The nose pieces are at the perfect height, but the smaller opening of the ear cups is too small to fit and even with the needle nose I couldn't fit them. If you just need to replace the nose pieces, this is perfect.
