Our laid-back, summer-worthy Pacific Palisades sunglasses get a touch of sophistication in matte tortoise shell frames with polarized amber lenses. There’s a hint of old Hollywood thanks to the retro brow bar and rounded rectangular lens shape of our Pacific Palisades, making them the perfect companion on a top-down cruise or stroll along the boardwalk. You can always count on both style and safety from Knockaround in the form of UV400 protection and impact-resistant lenses.

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.

These sunglasses are certainly more muted/dark tortoise shell than a lot of the stock pictures BUT I absolutely love the amber lenses.
Overall it’s a win. I’d recommend them.

I sometimes find black frames to oppressive with a larger style of shades, but these tortoise Pacific Palisades are perfect. It's a lighter look to match a lightweight design, and the flawless amber lenses are an apt complement. Plus, I really love the unique, head-turning modern update to a retro shape. They go with everything, and have become my default grab when I leave the house this summer.

This is my third pair of Pacific Palisades, and I'm loving this colorway. Not all tortoise shell frames are created equal, and these ones are beautiful! The matte is a fun touch.

Nothing beats the classic tortoise shell frame and the oversized look. They are comfy and complete the outfit.
