Cortado Fort Knocks
The Cortado Fort Knocks provide a modern edge to color combinations normally saved for retro shades. A quirky blend of contrasting hues makes for fronts that transition seamlessly from a clear amber down to a transparent cool muted-brown, complete with a matching color scheme on the arms. Cap it off with gold detailing and polarized smoky gradient lenses with UV400 protection, and there’s nothing left to do but pose. We can’t wait to admire the best headshots on your socials.

In 2022, Knockaroud officially became Plastic Neutral—for every pound of plastic we use, we remove one pound from the environment elsewhere. But that’s far from where our sustainability efforts end. We’ve also implemented minimalist, recycled packaging, eliminated single-use plastics, and included recycled materials in our products whenever possible. There’s always more progress to be made, but we’re committed to putting in the work.
Stay Glare Aware
Polarized lenses cut glare by filtering out horizontal light waves, like the ones that bounce off water or the road. Without this glare, you’re left with a more gentle view and reduced eye strain, not to mention crisper, cleaner details!

Who we are
Born, raised, and bathed in San Diego sunshine, Knockaround is the original, affordable sunglasses brand. Since 2005 we’ve committed to making durable shades that are both practical and stylish. Our stellar customer service and ever-growing selection of high-quality eyewear have made us not just hometown favorites, but go-to’s across the globe!
Committed to Sustainability
Making high-quality shades is the core of what we do, but inevitably that means we contribute to excess plastic byproduct. The idea of being a net drain on the environment doesn’t sit well with us, so we partnered with 4ocean to maintain plastic neutrality and work further to improve the environmental friendliness of our process.

This was a replacement pair they sent when my first pair had some defects. They fit great and comfortable! I end up losing glasses so I'm sure I will be ordering again sometime in the future!

I've been a Knockaround customer for 2 years now and have been very pleased with the products, especially since I have a large face/head. This Cortado color is especially nice though. Great update to a classic frame style. I generally buy Tortoise shell and Matte Black color ways but I ventured out just a bit with these and am happy I did. The gradient is slight and the color is dark enough that I can wear them with everything from black shirts to earth tones.

I have a few pairs of Knockaround sunglasses now and I think the Fort Knocks style might be my favorite. I really like the thicker arms. The Cortado color is also amazing! I have super pale skin and I like the way they look better than just like a straight up glossy black pair.

I love the glasses. However they’re a bit big and I didn’t know if they came in a smaller size.
