How to Adjust Your Necklace Cord: A Step-by-Step Visual Guide

If your Kris Nature piece is marked as adjustable, follow the steps below to customize the fit.

Step 1: We shorten the cord and leave the end knots as shown, for easy grip.
Step 2: Slide this knot while holding the cord and end knot. Do the same on the other side.
Step 3: Pull the cord after moving the slide knots to the desired position. (Slide toward the middle for longer length.)
Step 4: After adjusting, move the slide knot close to the end knot to secure.
Step 5: Your necklace should rest comfortably at your desired length.

Frequently Asked Questions
 
How much can I adjust the length?
The cord typically allows a range of 45 cm to 65 cm (18″ to 26″), suitable for most necklines and layering preferences.
Can I adjust it while wearing it?
Yes. The slide knots move smoothly against the waxed cord. Simply reach behind your neck, find the two end knots, and slide.
What if the cord feels stiff?
New waxed cord may feel slightly firm. After a few days of body heat and natural movement, it softens and becomes more pliable.
Can I get the wax cord wet?
We recommend removing your piece before swimming or showering. While the cord is water-resistant, prolonged saturation can weaken the wax coating and affect knot security over time.
The knot keeps slipping. What do I do?
If the slide knot loses grip after months of wear, contact us for a complimentary cord replacement kit. The re-stringing process is simple and takes under 15 minutes.
