description

Greetings from California! There’s no denying the beauty that this golden state is home to…and believe us, we’re talking both geography and people. You’ve got the Pacific Coast in the west, Sierra Nevada in the east, Redwoods in the northwest, and Mojave Desert in the southeast. Being the third largest state by area there is so much California to see, and depending on your employment status, maybe too little time or funds.

Not to worry, our new Limited Edition Golden State Fort Knocks give you a little taste of this great state. Inspired by the place we call home, and a classic “Greetings from California” postcard, you’ll be ready to pack a bag, drop the top, and hit the California highways this summer.

Only 1,000 pairs were made and feature matte desert tortoise shell fronts that fade to yellow and green, gold accent hardware, and Cabrillo Gold mirrored lenses. Each pair comes with a green and white California highway sign inspired protective pouch, a California table top flag, and the very postcard that inspired these shades. Trust us, these Golden State Fort Knocks are definitely something to write home about. 

sustainability

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.

shipping & returns

We ship Monday to Friday from our warehouse here in San Diego, CA, with the exception of holidays.

Who we are

Sun and San Diego

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!

Plastic Neutral

KNOCKAROUND IS PLASTIC NEUTRAL

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.
