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.

I love, love, love the Mai Tais. I own about 3 different pairs at this point and the black style is my go to. I love that they are polarized, they fit great and are jsut in general good quality sunglasses at a great price. I’m outdoors regularly, hunting, fishing, hiking and gardening. You can always find me in a pair of Mai Tais. They offer great coverage and are stylish.

these are my absolute favorite sunglasses - I am on pair #5. The polarization did scratch on my last pair, which is what prompted the new purchase.

Hey, it's me again from the Black on Black Fast Lanes review. These are the sunglasses my wife wears, and loves. She has a different face shape than me, and the round lenses look great on her. She used to be a SunCloud type. But those were $65 each (likely over $80 now) and would scratch so easily. After the Mai Tais, there was no going back.
Same benefits as the Fast Lanes. Incredible sunglasses at a reasonable price. We have them on the key hooks, in each car, a backup in the pilot closet, and in our hiking backpacks. Phenomenal sunglasses.
