Product details

Description

Timeless icons deserve timeless frames. The skull and roses motif made famous by the Grateful Dead’s 1971 “untitled” album (fondly referred to by fans as Skull and Roses) has endured as a Dead Head favorite since its introduction. Why? Because it struck a chord with the die-hards. Just like our Fort Knocks did.

Elegantly balancing the dark and the delicate, this pair will take you on a trip in a way only the Dead can.

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.

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!

Grateful to have a good pair of sunglasses.

These are a great-looking and fun pair of sunglasses. I love the give in the henges. Makes putting them on easy as well as protects them a bit more. I will get a couple more at some point.

Annie and Her Kindness

If there’s a kinder, better representative than Annie from any business anywhere , we’ve never met that person. Whether a question or concern, Annie addressed it immediately and made sure we were more than satisfied with the product and the delivery. Her communications with me were articulate, gracious and in the voice of a friend rather than a mechanical responder. She was outstanding.

My husband loves his glasses, and Annie’s tlc has enhanced his enjoyment profoundly!

All best wishes with continued thanks,

Linnie

Very nice. Colorful, and it looks like they will take the beating that they will mistakenly and continuously be subjected to.

Love these!

I have always loved Knockaround sunglasses and I’m even more excited about all the fun collabs! They do such a great job. Presentation of the box, sleeve holder and glasses is on point. Definitely make great gifts!
