Meet our founder
"When I was a kid, my dad had an old pair of sneakers he’d wear when he mowed the lawn—he called them his ‘knockaround’ sneakers. They had a broken-in coolness about them and always got the job done. That’s the spirit I envisioned when I started Knockaround in 2005. Now, almost 20 years later, it’s incredible to see how our sunglasses have become a part of so many adventures worldwide. Here’s to many more years of knocking around together!”
-Adam “Ace” Moyer, Founder
