I lost my earring stroller: how do I replace it?
Have you lost the stroller of one of your earrings? Or maybe the original clasp has loosened over time and no longer holds as well as it used to?
This is one of the most common problems with earrings, all brands combined. A stroller that slips, falls while doing your hair or disappears in the sink, and there you have a pair of earrings that you no longer dare to wear.
The good news? No need to buy a complete pair. A stainless steel replacement pusher allows you to give a second life to your earrings in seconds.
Why do we lose the stroller of an earring?
The saddle, also called a butterfly clasp, is the small piece that slides over the post of the earring to hold it in place. It is a tiny element, handled every day, and therefore naturally exposed to loss.
The most common situations:
- the stroller falls when removing a sweater or scarf;
- she slips when combing her hair or putting on a helmet;
- its fins have spread over time and it no longer tightens enough;
- it simply disappears when changing curls.
A loose stroller is often a warning sign of loss: if your earring moves or comes off easily, it is better to replace the clasp before losing the jewelry itself.
The solution: stainless steel replacement strollers
At Azuline, we offer stainless steel replacement strollers, compatible with the vast majority of straight post earrings, regardless of the brand.
They are suitable in particular for ZAG earrings, but also for many silver or gold stainless steel earrings from other brands, as long as they have a standard post with a stroller clasp.
They are available in two finishes:
- silver stainless steel for silver earrings;
- golden stainless steel for the golden earrings.
Made in stainless steel, they are hypoallergenic, resistant to water and oxidation, and suitable for daily wear.
Replacement only takes a few seconds:
- remove the old stroller if it is still in place;
- slide the new stroller onto the earring post;
- push it until you feel a slight resistance behind the lobe.
Your earring is once again held securely, ready to wear.
What situation, what solution?
| Your situation | The solution |
|---|---|
| Lost stroller | Replace it with a stroller that matches the finish of your buckle |
| Loose stroller that no longer holds | Replace it before you lose the earring itself |
| Uncomfortable or irritating stroller | Switch to a Hypoallergenic Stainless Steel Stroller |
| Want a backup pair | Keep a few strollers in your jewelry box |
Silver or gold: which finish to choose?
To maintain the harmony of your jewelry, it is recommended to choose the matching finish.
✔ Silver steel earrings → silver strollers
✔ Gold steel earrings → golden strollers
Worn behind the lobe, the stroller remains invisible most of the time, but a matching finish ensures it looks impeccable from all angles.

Frequently asked questions
Are these strollers only compatible with ZAG buckles?
No. They are suitable for ZAG earrings, but also for the majority of straight post earrings from other brands, provided that the diameter of the post is standard.
Are strollers hypoallergenic?
Yes. Stainless steel is generally very well tolerated by the skin, including prolonged contact with the lobe, and is suitable for sensitive people.
Are they water resistant?
Yes. Stainless steel resists water and oxidation. As with any jewelry, it is still advisable to dry them after prolonged exposure to water in order to preserve their shine.
How do I know if a stroller is compatible with my earring?
If your earring has a straight post with a small notch, and it originally closed with a butterfly clasp, the replacement earring will be suitable in the vast majority of cases.
What should I do if my stroller fits but feels loose?
Better to replace it without delay. A relaxed stroller is the number one cause of earring loss: changing it costs much less than replacing the jewelry.
Can I use these strollers on other brand buckles?
Yes. The stroller is a standard piece: it fits most stud earrings, regardless of brand, as long as you choose the matching finish.
