Q: What size are the flat back earrings?

Cords Club's Flat Backs are 18 gauge and come with a 6mm long Flat Back post.A 6mm post is a great length for most people, so we'd recommend starting there! We do also have a range of other sizes available and sold separately. If you have questions about sizing, we'd love to help!

Q: Are your flat backs sold individually? Or in pairs?

Both! Grab a single if you’re mixing and matching, or a pair to save 10%

Our Flat Back Applicator is a great tool but it's not necessary! The Flat Back Applicator is designed to help make the process of changing your flat backs faster and easier, but you can definitely change your earrings without one. The choice is totally up to you!

I'm new to flat backs. What is the most important thing for me to know?

The first thing you'll want to learn is how to keep your Flat Backs nice and secure. Just like you'd tie your running shoes to make sure they stay on your feet for a run, you'll need to adjust your Flat Backs to keep them in place, too!

But don't worry! It's an easy peasy process, and we'll help you through the learning curve. <3

Stuck to everything
They are super cute but very impractical. Got stuck in my towel, in a blanket and in my hair. At one point one got ripped out of my ear when I was drying my face with a towel because it was stuck and I didn’t realize it. Not a pleasant experience and will never wear again. I love my other earrings from this company but these are a hard no.

Hi Hollie,

Thank you for sharing your experience, and we’re really sorry to hear this happened. Because of the shape of the legs on this design, we do include a note on the product page that the stud may catch on hair or fibers like towels or blankets. We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear you’ve loved your other earrings from us.

Almost Perfect
This is such a cute little spider, but unfortunately the legs were just a little too flimsy for me to wear everyday (I am the world’s craziest sleeper). After finding a broken leg on the spider however, the return and refund process was simple and hassle-free. Literally the best customer service.

Hello Arianna,

Aww, we’re obsessed with your sweet take on our Arachne Flat Back Stud—that tiny spider is too cute for words! 🕷️💕 So sorry the legs couldn’t survive your epic sleep adventures (we get it, wild sleepers unite!), but we’re thrilled our hassle-free return made it right. Your kind words on our service mean the world — thank you! 🫶

Not worth it
Super cute, but broke after less than 2 months of wear. Not worth the price for a flatback that’s just going to break off at the post. So sad. This is the only flatback I’ve owned from Cords club that’s broken this way.

Hi Amanda,

We're so sorry to hear that your Arachne Flat Back Stud broke after less than 2 months of wear! It's such a bummer when you love the design but then have the post break off — that's definitely not the quality experience we want you to have, especially when this is your first Cords Club flat back to break this way. We totally understand how disappointing and frustrating this must be, particularly given the investment you made in the piece.

It's really concerning to hear about a post breaking after such a short period of wear, and we appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback about the durability issue. This type of issue is covered under our 365-day warranty, and we'd love to make this right for you. Please reach out to our support team at hello@cordsclub.com so we can get this sorted out.
