Proflex straps????

[Gee Tee]

How do you change straps on proflex goggles?

Do you have to cut off or undo stitching on the folded ends, swap over and then re-stitch ends to lock them in?

If so it's a bit of a PITA compared to other goggles :tsk:

yeah ive always wondered how to do this to mine!

looks like you have to cut them off but then how do you replace them ??

 

[essx]

You have to use brute force...dont cut them!! You.simply feed an edge or.corner through...and pull hard!!

The frames have quite a bit of flex in them, I used a pair of thin needle nose pliers to help push the strap out and pull the new one back through.

feed the strap through then use a knife to push through, actually it`s quite easy I`ve got 2 x straps on mine and what a difference it makes for comfort ...Bluey

Brute force and flex to get them out (you could also slide something down the inside of the dovetail to make it easier if your not too good with the brute force thingy)

Then as Mr Bears says butter kinfe or cake slide down the inside of the dovetail to get a new strap in (if its a worn pair of frames should be able to twist a bit and shove a corner of the dovetail through no problem)

Don't use knives, you numb nuts, you'll hurt yourself, or the frames, use the back of a teaspoon handle, much safer and more effective!

Next I'm going to take all your pens and pencils away am only let you play with crayons
