Your Shades Float Now.
Chums was born on the water, and the Orbiter Float is proof they haven't forgotten it. Lightweight stainless steel cable with low-profile Orbiter ends that grip a wide range of frames — plus a high-density foam float in high-vis colors that keeps your eyewear on the surface if they go in. The foam is removable for days away from the water, so this retainer pulls double duty without compromise. If you're spending time on the lake, the river, or anywhere your sunglasses could end up wet, this is the one to reach for. Just test your specific shades first — every pair weighs differently.

Why We Carry Chums
Chums has been solving the "lost sunglasses" problem since 1983, when a raft guide on the Colorado River built the first retainer in the back of a VW van. The Orbiter Float is one of their most purpose-built designs — refined for people who spend real time on the water. We stock Chums because our customers actually use them.
