Description

What’s better than black-on-black with a little more black? These triple-duty Fort Knocks are equipped with matte black frames, polarized black smoke lenses, and gunmetal hardware for an undeniably cool design. Each pair features the classic Fort Knocks silhouette, which is known for its steadfast strength, style, and versatility. These shades are tough: they feature impact-resistant lenses, high-quality hidden spring hinges, and have a comfortable and accommodating fit—they are named after the United States Bullion Depository in Fort Knox, Kentucky after all.

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!

4ocean plastic neutral commitment

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. 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.

Super happy

These fit well, have the springy ear pieces and I like them. A little slippery when sweaty but not a big deal.

Knockarouns

This is the replacement for broken glasses that my husband had. The speed and ease and professionalism of Annie was top notch. She took such great care of us and sent his replacements out quickly. To say the least he is a happy camper. I have told anyone who would listen about how great your company is, even with adversity with the broken glasses, because you followed up with a new pair for him. Thank you
