Wasn't at first, but I'm OK with these and will keep them
I followed these (according to my bookmark, and the price) for years actually.  I just didn't want to pay that much for a non-OEM product and because I only needed one temple.  I didn't make it a mission, but checked every once in a while and never really found a better deal, so I dropped the hammer.  When I first saw them I freaked out, see the pic, but after wearing them for awhile I found the hooks actually spread out on my ear so the tip doesn't dig in at all... but I won't pull them straight off, that would probably hurt or scratch my skin... that must be what the reverse end at the end of actual Ray Ban temples is for.  Easy enough to slip my fingertips under the end of the temples and lift them off my ears.  I also thought they might be too tight, and they did feel that way at first, but not now... they're fine.  Point of interest: I wear these over my vision glasses and they work very well for this.<br /><br />All this being said, this is probably the swan song for my Ray Ban Outdoorsmans, and that's not due to these temples.  This is the 3rd temples replacement, they are lens heavy, and a nuiscance to carry around, especially if I use the case.  I want my breast pocket for other things, not my sunglasses.<br /><br />Hope they work out as good for you as they did for me.
