Knockaround 2018 Year in Review

John Legend, Sharks, and Paso Robles—Say What?!?

January 8, 2019

Well, we've got the first week of '19 under our belt. The holidays are behind us and this is probably the first week of normalcy since before Thanksgiving...and now we're hitting the 2019 ground running!

2018 was great, and for that we thank you, Knock Fans! Here's a little snapshot of this past year's highlights. But stay tuned for more, this year is going to be one of Knockaround's greatest!




TOP KNOCKS

We sell a TON of sunglasses every year! With more than 250 styles to choose from, there's a perfect pair for just about everyone. But no matter how many options we offer, it's always fun to look back at the tried-and-true Knocks our customers love most.

Here are some of the best-selling pairs in each of our best-selling frame styles for 2018:




NEW DIGS

In 2018 Knockaround moved into a new home, actually, we should say 2 new homes. This past summer we expanded into a brand new office space, and our warehouse moved into a much larger space directly underneath San Diego's beautiful Coronado Bridge.

Be on the look out for more, we'll give you a closer look soon!




NEW FRIENDS

It's always neat to see who's being seen in Knockarounds. Back in 2018, we spotted a couple of Johns rocking their favorite pairs—including John Mayer, who wore Fort Knocks while celebrating his birthday in Brazil. (Invite only...ours probably got lost in the mail.)




NEW FRAMES

Last summer we welcomed the Paso Robles to the Knockaround frame fam and they've quickly become a Knock Fan fave. Slide on a pair of these gems, round up the crew, relax, chat, laugh, and taste your way through the vineyards.





SWEET PROJECTS

In 2018, we had a pretty amazing list of Limited Editions and Collaborations (below are a few of our favorites). We already know what 2019 looks like, and let's just say you DON'T want to miss out...
