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.

Knockaround x Grateful Dead Blurb

Grateful Dead Bolt Bears Premiums

Celebrate 60 years of the Grateful Dead in electrifying style with the new Bolt Bears Premiums! Featuring a striking pattern of bolts and bears over a movement-filled black and purple base, these shades are a psychedelic homage to the band’s iconic imagery. Perfect for grooving at festivals or chilling by the campfire, they’re more than sunglasses—they’re a must-have for Dead Heads ready to embrace the Dead’s legacy with every wear.

Stay Glare Aware

Polarized Lenses

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!

Committed to Sustainability

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.
