Anyone else have problems with the velcro? When I first got them it was ok but after a few months it became totally useless.

I bought them for my son. He said the velcro was beginning to be a problem.

Not yet, but have not worn them heavily yet. I have other items where the velcro gets 'old' fast around our home - pet hair and twillfrom clothing can make the velcro hook loops not catch as well. May just be as easy as pulling out all the stuff from the hook loops.

ET I have not had any problems with the velcro although I did get a bigger size in the glove.

I ordered mine in January. The white plastic clip on one ear broke after a couple months, and they sent me a free replacement pair of the white clips in April. The 2nd side failed a month or so later, and I used the 2nd replacement. Now the replacement has broken in November. I haven't babied them, but I definitely haven't abused them.

I have been wearing mine on and off for about two years, more frequently the past few months. The velcro on the middle strap is starting to not stick as well. I might try to figure out a way to rig it, but honestly for the price I might just order a new one. This split works well, better than others I have had.

We have only had ours 3 weeks, but i would try scrub cleaning the velcro to get stuff out of it that might clog the connection, and if that doesn't work, put new velcro or sew a snap on

They are cheaply made. Bought 2 pairs and both pairs did the same thing after a few months.

Don't bother. We bought these and returned them after a few days. The velcro is glued on and comes loose after a few on-and-offs.

In my experience the velcro backing tears off the foam fairly quickly, much faster than the pads show any wear. I sent CG a message on facebook asking if they had any advice on extending the life as I was disappointed at their relatively short lifespan, but have yet to hear back.

I have had the same experience. They are cheaply made, I will not order them again.

I have the same issue. I tried with several of my other ear hooks from other products such as Samsung but none seems to fit. Without the ear hooks these are useless as they keep falling off while jogging. Please let me know if you found a way to get an additional hook.

I've taken ours off a few times and put it back on. Velcro seems to still hold good. Just make sure the new collar width is compatible.

This happened to me when I first used them. I adjusted them with the straps to go as far back as possible and have been good since then.

Haven't experienced any problems with mine, maybe you've been unlucky with a faulty pair.I am currently waiting for a new pair I've bought.Cheers

I did not have this problem when I put them in mine. You may wanna clean the contacts and try again if it does it then request a replacement or refund. I have been using mine for several months without any problem so its strange yours are doing it. I hope you have better luck.

I used arm band everyday for month, I had to turn band around as flap was hitting body and coming undone. But Velcro still works

If you contact the company they will send you some new pieces. Unfortunately my dogs tag came off while I was waiting for the velcro (I couldn't find the correct kind at Michael's). Now I have velcro but no tag.

Strap broke on mine too. The first time I used them actually. I would contact company about replacement strap. I personally did not like the goggles. They were too big for my eyes and did not keep water out well. Leave deep impression marks around eyes. Hopefully you can get a replacement strap or goggles from company who makes goggles.

Hi. Good question. It seems like the Velcro is fine, a little weak, but I think the bigger issue is my bicep is (unfortunately) too small for it. I would recommend it with very little concern of the Velcro wearing out. That said, I've used it on a few bike rides for a total of maybe 30 hours.
