Replacement Temple Ear Socks for Oakley Glass Frame OX3024 OX3085 OX3144 OX5055 OX5113 OX5120 OX3133

Very hard to put on but the fit is perfect once you do get them on

I have the Oakley Lizard/OX5113 frames and I needed to replace the temple ear sleeves since the original were ripping. I ordered these, arrived quickly and were the correct dimensions. Only gave it 4 stars since they were SUPER tight and difficult to slide on. I ended up finding a small screw driver to run through them to open and stretch them a bit to then slide them on to my glasses. It was still a tedious struggle but they work and now the sleeves on my glasses are without rips and tears.

Can't get the ear socks on but honestly haven't tried that hard. Nose pieces went on super easy though.

My Oakley glass frame was OX3133 and boy it was tight. I did not use soap (I did not put any research on how to do these stuff much more easily) and used the spinning technique where you spin the rubber Temple Ear socks while moving it which took quite a while. The hardest part of the process would be the nose pads. Mine had a snap-on nose pad but even then it was hard to re-attach the new ones since it was a little bit bigger. I advise to use things such as soap since it will make the process much more easier when replacing the nose pads, removing them though is easy.

Be sure to read reviews how others installed theirs; I fought mine and figured it out on my own, but it took me some time. (And THEN I read the other reviews, and I could have saved myself about an hour of time it I had just done my research.) My nose piece was broken, so popping out the tiny piece was a struggle. I finally dug it out with a dental tool. As for the sock, I tried working one of them on, but it was way too tight and had gotten stuck after about a quarter inch. Then I thought back to when I needed to slip other rubber things on (not what you're thinking, but yes, the same concept), and the soap lube did the trick. I didn't soak as much, because I didn't want to have it leaking out every once in a while, so I used very little and used very hot water to make the socks more pliable. Once I got one end on, it was a matter of just pushing and twisting at the same time to get the sock positioned. My glasses look brand new.

A little frustrating to get onto my glasses. I recommend pre-stretching with a thick paperclip or wire. After the nose rests and temple/above the ear rubber thingys were on, they gave new life to my older frames.

The ear sock on my Oakley Lizard was getting worn. I bought this to replace the old ear sock. I had no problems installing this with hand soap to lubricate the area. I would use a couple of kleenex to get a grip on the frame and sock so it doesn't slip during installation. Just grip it with your fingers and slowly work the ear sock in. Took about five minutes. Just be careful not to bend or damage your frame during installation.

I read the reviews and saw that some had issues with the ear socks being too tight while others had no problems. I had one of each. One went on with any issues at all, while the other was so tight it tore. The nose pieces went in without issue and are a great replacement. The ear sock that did install was also a great replacement. If they can fix the quality control issues, this would be great.
