- Enhanced Side Straps: The side straps of our elite strap adopted upgraded polymer material which is eco-friendly and has extreme tenacity and sturdiness that could stand over 100,000 times bending so you don’t have to worry that the side strap will snap.
- Optimized Wearing Design: With the 52° adjustable hinge, just gently flip up Quest 2 and you can check your surroundings without the trouble of loosening the knob to take off the head strap. Also, this design is very convenient for you to put on or take off the head strap, especially for people who wear glasses.
- Enlarged Head Support: The whole head strap weighs 350g, it has larger head support than the official one, fits head circumference 17.7-29.5inch, the enlarged head support can better fit and cup your head, which will make the head strap more stable and comfortable.
- Upgraded Cushions: The widened 46mm top strap pad and the thickened 16mm head cushion can effectively improve the comfort and reduce pressure when wearing the headset, and the soft PU leather surface makes it very easy to clean the cushions. Note: Please use the cloth that came with the package or tissue to wipe off the sweat on the PU leather cushions in time to avoid mold, do not use chemical liquids such as alcohol and detergent.
- Easy to Carry & Store: Our head strap for Oculus/Meta Quest 2 can fit in the official carrying case and most carrying cases on the market so you can rest assured to take it on your travel and won’t worry about the storage. Note: Please detach the back bracket first to put it into the official elite strap carrying case.

Product was easy to assemble, and very comfortable. I’m very happy with my purchase.
victor j chriest –
Fits well.
FernFern –
Honestly oculus could learn a thing or two from KIWI because they know how to make good products. Especially this strap I mean wow it is perfect how I can adjust it no problem and it keeps the headset steady on my face without it pressing down my nose. Thanks KIWI.
cgrandt –
This strap is more comfortable and easier to use than the default strap that comes with the Quest 2. No adjustments are needed to share the device with other users. Simply turn the dial to loosen or tighten the strap for each user.
Stephen D –
The VR is more snug on my head, especially doing action games and such
Course of Virtue –
Cheaper and better than the elite strap.
John S. –
Super comfortable and makes the whole experience better because it’s always a tighter fit
Charles A Marino –
top head piece does not stay connected to rear head piece, it is annoying.
Tonya –
Love this head strap!
Rachel –
I play a lot of Pavlov and long play sessions with the default straps can make the front of your face feel off. With this headset, It holds everything together perfectly. Plus the knob on the back makes adjusting super easy.
orly gershon –
Much more comfortable than the Eccles rubber. Lightweight and holds the device well on the head
Scott Jordan –
Once you disconnect the pad at the back of head (the black pad) and dial it all the way small it all fits nicely in the oculus case.
Dima –
Must-have accessory! Makes a huge difference
Mesha’al Andrei Diesta –
The head strap fits perfectly in my head. It is very sturdy. I recommend this if you are playing and moving around so much so you don’t have to adjust your headset every time. Pro tip though, don’t make it too tight or you wlll have headaches after a while.
JL –
Excellent product. Very comfortable. Super easy installation. Definitely improves my VR experience.
Mikey –
It fits awkwardly, the back knob is not flush with the headset like the elite strap, so couch gaming, or laying on a pillow is completely out — and it has a thing in the back that like bites into your skull — like I dunno if my head is shaped like a potato or what, but that plastic ridge on the bottom is extremely uncomfortable. — I wouldn’t recommend this for anybody.It’s much worse than the elite strap (which I also wouldn’t recommend). — Just stick with your stock strap — there isn’t really anything more comfortable right now.
J. E. MatiasJ. E. Matias –
As far as the cushion on the strap and back head piece go I felt they were very comfortable, the strap felt secure and snug, unfortunately the hinge which was the main attraction and major selling point in so many of the reviews I saw and read online was complete and utter trash, it constantly popped off whenever I tried to adjust the headset just to simply to put it on and I was unable to actually tilt it upwards away from my eyes, the reviews all made it out to be an amazing feature that was so easy to use however for me it was completely useless and unusable, I did notice pressure on the front where the set makes contact with my cheeks as well, and I can honestly say I regret even trying the strap I felt like it was a complete waste of time and effort.
Els –
Very comfortable!
Wendy Lloyd –
This is literally a game changer! (Haha!) So easy to use and really make the experience better because it fits your head better and don’t feel like you are adjusting straps all the time, turn the knob and you are set.
luis –
Easy to install and very comfortable
Rick Marsh –
easy to install works well good purchase
Lauren –
This is the one. just buy it
Jason Beard –
Very comfortable and great for intense movements.
Trinity B. –
I loved it as soon as I put it on. Theres no more weight on my causing pain. I should have gotten a battery pack one since the oculus runs out of juice super fast. All in all this was great right out the box
Glospir –
Please, do yourself a favor. Do not use the Q2 without this headstrap and the KIWI facial interface. Brilliant design. Makes a world of difference.
Vander Zanden –
On time, we’ll engineered, fair price, quality materials. What more can you ask?
S. O’Shredd –
Great feel for working out
Steve Axtell –
I like the form and comfort of this and it fits my big head, but it doesn’t stay attached to the Oculus. It comes loose from the back every time I use it!
rlandes –
Very good strap, bad design, the plastic attached to quest 2 is too thick, meaning you can’t swap straps, it’s there forever, can get it off the headset. Overall its a good strap.
Jim F –
This thing is comfy.
Daniel Porter –
the 50 dollar quest 2 elite strap vs the 42 dollar elite strap from KiwiLets go ahead and talk about it.How can you improve on a device like the elite strap from oculus? Well for one you can just not break Am I right? This coming from someone who has been through 3 of them. The top strap is a nice addition. But what else can you do for quality of life changes. You can allow it to flip up becoming that much easier to remove the headset.Ok what if you already bought the elite carrying case? It fits in there as well.I can’t seem to be more amazed how a product that came out of left field has changed everything for my quest 2. Now I either have to get a new battery or find a way to get the rebuff reality battery to attach to this headset. When I find a way to do that this headset will be next to perfect. I will update pending on further checks and to see what other attachments work with the headset.Update: I found a better way to use the rebuff reality battery with this headset. So as the 5 stars goes its above and beyond what I could have asked for in comfort.
michael ricci –
Both me and the lady love it and we are so glad we got this.
Carlos Blandford –
Great product fits perfect
Kindle Customer –
Could not even play Oculus because of the head strap. Put this on and there was immediate relief!
Cpusaf –
If I had to complain about anything, I would say that the adjustment knob needs to be a little bit easier to grip and turn. If your hands are a little sweaty it can be hard to grip. That’s me being really picky though.
Kindle Customer –
Brings in a whole new level of comfort. It’s a must buy.
Wolf –
Fits great. Very comfortable.
Ian Currie –
This is very well designed and comfortable.
James swinson –
For some reason it will extend but will not close once placed on oculus. When not connected to oculus it works fine.
denisha baca –
I love this head strap. The oculus is not longer resting on my face. The back of my head is not hurting. So comfortable. Highly recommend. My sister is going to be buying this as well.
Joshua With –
This thing is absolutely fantastic, and it does not suffer from the breaking issue that the Oculus name brand one suffers from. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has a quest as a replacement for the fabric junk the quest comes with.
Kindle Customer –
Finally I can play longer with the comfort of the headset. Easy to install and adjust to your fit.
Just Jimmy –
I bought this when it had no reviews and so glad I took the chance. The biggest selling point for me is that it is already mostly assemblied, unlike the cheaper versions where you have to connect a plastic middle tab to the back. These are cheap connections that tend to break easily and can be difficult to assemble. This strap already has a sturdy round connection in place that also pivots upwards, making removing the headset a breeze.This head strap also has decent padding and the knob mechanism is smooth and works well, only time will tell how reliable it is. I also own a Occulus Rift S and after attching this strap to the Quest 2, the comfort level is on par with it, if not better.I highly recommend this strap over cheaper ones for the better construction, durability, and design.
Brodie –
Quality is top notch, makes the quest 2 a much more comfortable device and using it requires much less fidgeting with than the original strap.
kim patterson –
Trying to use with the occulus
Ron ShafferRon Shaffer –
heather –
The head peice is comfortable. Thats about it. The stupid back piece just falls off all the time. Poorly made and wont secure into the the back of the head part.
Mary S. –
My son gives this rave reviews!
Gerald –
I am very happy with this purchase. Made the use of my Oculus Quest 2 much more enjoyable to use. Much more comfortable.
Maximo Grau –
I wish it was just a bit more comfortable and charitable on adjustments, at it’s most comfortable setting it feels like it’s gonna slip off at any moment, it’s good though, definitely better than the original strap and I assume the elite strap.
jordan juarez –
My son disliked the original head strap that oculus came with but this thing is amazing. Worth the price and every dollar spent. I will be purchasing a second one for my son it is PERFECT!!! Hands down for seller they did an excellent job at designing and easy installation so forth.
Scion142 –
The best thing about this product is it keeps the Quest 2 well positioned on your head making the visual “sweet spot” stay in place.
Joe EJoe E –
I’ve only been using it for a few days, but I can say it’s really comfortable. The thick padding on the back and top strap make a huge difference. Once you get it dialed in to your head, you won’t use the turn dial on the back anymore. Just flip the back up at the hinges to take it off. I had an original elite strap before, which of course broke. Then I bought an aftermarket elite strap that I really liked and had no problems with. While browsing, I saw this one from KIWI, and had to try it. I’m glad I did. The best one so far!In the pics, you can see I also bought the KIWI battery strap, which attaches perfectly to the bottom of the back. It comes with a usb-c cable too. Great set up!
J. Alston –
Great aftermarket product. Definitely better than the factory issued product.

Easy to use and easy to play
Daniel –
Far more comfortable. My sinuses aren’t being crushed!
Hugo B. –
I love it at the first sight, and I love it more when I put it on my head.
Vince –
The default strap is absolute trash, this is sooooooooooooo MUCH BETTER. I love this strap, its go’s on and off easy, easy to tighten and loosen. And you can enjoy long play sessions with out having little plastic things jabbing into your skull. Love it.
ChrisChris –
I tried a couple different head straps and landed on this one. It’s very comfortable. What I really like about it is how sturdy it feels compared to other straps. The plastic is thicker and seems like it will last much longer (though obviously I can’t prove this yet!). There is a lot of padding which is comfy. I only gave it four stars for two reasons:1) The cover on the top strap was split when I received it as seen in the picture. It doesn’t affect the comfort or usability of it, just the aesthetics. I reached out to Kiwi customer service and they quickly offered me a replacement.2) Due to the length of the top foam strap, it’s tough to adjust this strap for smaller heads. When I say “smaller”, though, I mean my young kid who likes to play occasionally! We make it work, but just know this is an issue if you have a lot of young children using your headset!Despite these two minor issues, I would highly recommend this headstrap and also recommend this brand who clearly has great customer service!
Chappay –
So much more comfortable than the standard head strap.
Eric C Johnson –
At first I wrote a 3 star review saying it was a quality product but didn’t fit my head/face, but after spending around an hour fiddling with it I found the sweet spot and it’s awesome!
mike –
easy to install comfort great makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable easy on and off easy to change users with the adj knob for the size of anyones head i have a big head and it fit easy
james walls –
Extremely comfortable and easy to install
Anthony Eloy Rodriguez –
Great head strap that disreputes pressure more evenly that the elite strap. Only issue is that it’s a little too wipe making it difficult to use over ear headphones but if you don’t use those it’s a great strap
J. GlecknerJ. Gleckner –
Strap stopped working properly, only one side will adjust. Was very comfortable while it lasted. Great weight distribution.

I love this attachment, it is super comfortable andI really like being able to flip up the Quest 2 when I need to and just flip it back down!
Mohamed Haroun –
Highly recommend it, it will make your headset very comfortable and you will be able to move easily with it.
Javier Picon –
This strap is the best budget friendly alternative to the elite strap. Kiwi hit it out of the park yet again. Very comfortable to wear with a padded head strap.
Cory D. –
Great fitBalances the headset much better than original strapThis strap can lift up the headset so you can take a peak. Great for removing headset or taking a quick look at your setup.Will definitely reccomend
Zach F. –
This headstrap is so much better than the original it isn’t even funny. No more cheek, forehead, etc pain, you hardly feel the headset on your face
coady schofield –
This headset is ok for beginners.
Steven M. Johnson –
It is much more balanced,
Paul Johnson –
Helps when putting the unit on
Pam Poole –
Gift for grandson. Easy to attach and very comfortable

First and ForemostI ordered this product with zero reviews on Amazon, and I could not find any video reviews on YouTube or through a Google search. I’m glad I did.This product is a game-changer for people who prefer stability on their heads. I tried a halo strap, the strap was very nice and comfortable, I couldn’t stand the way it didn’t actually lock onto my head. This headset not only locks in place, it provides ample room for me to do so, it is extremely comfortable, and it is strong. It does everything that the Amazon Suggested Orzero Headset does AND corrects on all the negatives that I read in those comments. The detailed review will be below.The ProsThe design is fantastic. It feels strong, the plastic does not feel cheap or makes noises when tightening the straps with the knob on the back. Sturdy, spacious, I can wear it for hours and not feel any pain.It actually cuffs the back of your head. One of the biggest complaints I’ve seen about a lot of these “Pro” headstrap alternatives is that they don’t actually cuff the back of your head. This one does, and it does so in a way that I think the majority of people’s form factor will actually just not be a factor.The memory foam on the back makes it feel like you’re being caressed instead of squeezed. You can remove the memory foam for easier storage if necessary and easily snap it back into place.The straps are long for those unfortunate enough to have been born with an otherwise elongated, saggy cranium.The turning lock is easy to use, does not harm me when laying down on my bed watching VR Theaters, and feels sturdy.The headstrap is flexible, although the image and the video shown makes it look a bit more sturdy. The memory foam on top of it also helps with the weight displacement quite a bit. I highly recommend using it.I can’t find any cons with this headstrap. It needs more publicity and someone with an actual following on YouTube should showcase it.

Worth it
C. Leek –
Much more comfortable than the original. And the tension dial on the back is how it should have been made in the first place. Keeps the headset tighter for games with more physical motion.
J. K. Stewart –
Great fit and comfortable. Superior to the “factory” verson IMO
Marc Wagmeister –
Definitely comfortable, great value and appears to be well built….
Jennifer M. –
Extremely comfortable!! Definitely a game changer from the stock head strap.
CsGCsG –
This offers much more comfort than the original head gear. This is especially helpful for those of us that have to wear glasses.
Zachary Kentopp –
super easy to install, came with a nice cleaning cloth to wipe down your lenses, easy to adjust and comfortably get on my large head.

So, to start, I’m a very small person. I’m a 4’11 Asian girl, and if you didn’t know, we care a LOT about our skin. When I first got my Quest 2, it was so heavy on my face that I could actually feel it dragging on my eyes. I avoided using VR because I didn’t want eyebags (lol) and I had to tighten the strap so tightly to try to avoid it falling and dragging on my eyes that I got bruises on my cheeks. Now that might’ve been my fault, but at literally any other position everything went blurry, and obviously that’s not really the best way to experience VR.So, on the first day, I immediately went searching for a way to improve the heaviness and comfortability of the Quest 2 and I found that it was a common issue. I also found that the Elite strap was another $100, and with all the durability issues, I was NOT about to drop that amount of money for something that could snap on me and make me literally jump out of a window from heartbreak.So I found this, and I saw all the reviews, and saw how much cheaper it was, so I decided why not? I got it 3 days later, and when I tell you I RAN to install it onto my Quest 2 (which by the way, was incredibly easy 😀 !!!) And try it on, I’m not even exaggerating. And when I tell you I started crying from the overwhelming difference that this made for me, holy shit.It doesnt drag on my face anymore. It’s not heavy on my head. The back of my head and my neck doesnt hurt anymore???I don’t even care that it doesn’t have a battery pack (I haven’t found that I needed one and I never minded having a charger connected because I have a really long one). The monumental difference that this has made for me is so lifechanging that this was worth every penny. I will use the extra money I saved from not buying an Elite strap to buy the battery pack holder or DIY one.I can’t say how durable this is, it’s literally the day I got it, but I can tell you it feels high quality and from what the other reviews say, I don’t think I’ll have any worries. At such a low price anyway I wouldn’t mind buying multiple because of how much this has helped me. I think my boyfriend will really appreciate this too, and he’s a really bulky guy at 6’4!It also came with a generously large cleaning/wiping cloth 🙂 the clicks don’t bother me either, because of.. Well.Sorry for the long ranty review, but, it really is that amazing. Just buy it, please. You won’t regret it.EDIT: two month update or so, strap is holding strong. No durability issues so far!! Definitely worth your money, like i said lol
JBurke –
I was going to return my Quest 2 until I bought this adapter. What a major difference in comfort!
Richard –
i have used this for a wild now, and it is the best straps i have bought to my quest 2, i love the tifght fit, and as well how flexible it is, i am not afraid that this will brake like oculius strap will, i reccoment this product . why wait, buy oit now
HomerD –
Very comfy and fits in Occulus case
Anthony Wickwire –
The headstraps that comes with the Oculus Quest 2 are extremely uncomfortable. But this one feels great.
Terence Duffy –
Much much more comfortable
Nicholas Herrera –
It really is just a nice comfortable headstrap, very easy to use but the setup was kinda annoying. I highly recommend if you have 50 dollars laying around and need a new headstrap.
Robert T –
Worked great, much more comfortable and easy to install
WALT DAVIS –
Great product. Quality construction, light weight and does not slide around, when you move. I like the flip up feature when I am playing. Lastly, the company offers a line of accessories for the product, that you know will fit and work with the device
Marek SzozdaMarek Szozda –
My 14 year old LOVES it. The comfort is hard to compare with standard straps, the quality, the feel are so much better and surprisingly the lenses do not get foggy as they tend to! Worth every penny.
Relax Moose –
The strap is so much more comfortable than the original strap and after reading all the reviews for the official Oculus strap, I was weary of others. This one is awesome!
MJMJ –
After 2 weeks of use i notice the left side started to cracked and i don’t know how long it last before completely broken……Update: kiwi team are kind enough to refund me and after few days later the whole strap broke down completely.
Leslie A Marsh –
So far it is working very good and it sets on the head just right
Jennifer Linton –
I am able to move around without the oculus slipping on my head. I workout and when sweating, with the original strap, the Oculus would slip down my face and sweat would get into my eyes. With this headstrap, my sweat does not get into my eyes because with a turn of a dial, I am able to get it snug.
Victor –
Buy this. Comfortable, way better than the stock strap and likely won’t break like the official elite strap
raine –
This product is a huge upgrade from the default strap that comes with the oculus quest two! It’s a great value for the money considering the Oculus version is 50 dollars, but I still find it uncomfortable at times. Overall a great product that I would recommend!
John pencavage –
This is a much needed upgrade over the original strap .
FTE –
Comfy
Dave –
Easy to install and very comfortable. A must have !
NancyLe –
I’m glad I buy it. Very comfortable and looks like it’s gonna last a long time
MsX –
Better design and comfort than the original strap, however it doesn’t seem as sturdy. I haven’t had any issues since I got it a few weeks ago and it’s certainly worth the price.
