The Croakies brand was born in the mountains of Jackson, Wyoming, in 1977, when a local ski patrolman from the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort came up with an idea for an eyewear retainer that would grip his shades through all kinds of alpine adventures. Using an old wetsuit, some sharp scissors, and good old American ingenuity, he made the first pair of eyewear retainers.
The ingenious device was based on the design of a Chinese finger trap and quickly became a hit with all of the patrollers. The nickname "croakies" was used by the Jackson Hole ski patrol when they couldn't think of a word to describe the new invention, and the name finally stuck.
Today, Croakies continues to call the mountains home, thanks to a robust manufacturing facility in Bozeman, Montana. This deep connection to the outdoors keeps the brand driving forward towards greater product innovation, better, more sustainable production practices, and consistently raising the bar in creating best-in-class retention products that inspire everyday adventure and provide comfort, style, durability, and functionality to active people of all ages.
Croakies offers a wide range of eyewear retainers, including the Original Croakies, the casual Suiters line, the ARC with its articulating design and versatile fit, the Terra in a variety of colors and end sizes, and the Fashion line for everyday style. They also offer dog leashes and collars made from recycled plastic bottles, and a line of comfortable, sporty, and simplified belts that are perfect for tackling the outdoors or jaunting through Europe.
Croakies' durable woven rope material keeps your sunglasses or glasses in place while cycling, hiking, or wandering around town. The adjustable slider bead allows you to cinch the retainer tight to your head for a secure fit or pull it all way back for a relaxed fit. The retainer's spec ends are also adjustable and fit large frames down to small wire frames.
Croakies' products are colorfast and washable, and they are proudly made in the USA. The brand has been creating stylish, durable, and functional products for life's everyday adventures for more than 40 years, and they continue to be a trusted name in the outdoor and active lifestyle community.
