Comfortable and Stylish, Frame Design Flaw. OUTSTANDING Costumer Support from Knockaround!
I love these sunglasses. Not all glasses fit my face or nose very well, but these did. They squeeze my head right above my ears a bit harder than I'd like, but not enough to cause lasting discomfort or a headache. I've gotten several compliments on them (I got the Fast Lanes Sport in "Desert") and I like how they look on my face. The lenses are far enough from my eyeballs to avoid interference with my eyelashes, but not so far as to leak an unreasonable amount of light, given their design. The lens coating held up really well for me, but I didn't expose them to ocean or pool water, so I can't speak for the lens coating durability issues that others have mentioned. I would like to note that the directions tell you to rinse them off right away after exposure to salty or chlorine-treated water.About a year and a week after I bought them, the right "leg" part of the sunglasses frame cracked and failed. I noticed that the other side was beginning to fail in exactly the same manner. Knockaround offers a one year warranty on their glasses, which I didn't even know about until recently.I sent Knockaround support an email with pictures of the crack, a description of the failure, and a screenshot of the date of my Amazon order. Despite my glasses technically being about a week past the warranty cutoff date, they agreed to send me a replacements right away, and had it shipped by the next day! When I opened the box, I was very surprised to find TWO brand new replacement pairs of glasses in there! At my current rate, that's an additional two years worth of sunglasses. Pretty good for $35! They did mention that the new glasses would not be provided with a warranty, which effectively closes the infinite sunglasses glitch. Fair enough.Overall, I'd definitely recommend giving Knockarounds a try, they've earned a loyal costumer.

Great lenses, quality feel to the frame, and classically stylish
I decided I wanted a new pair of affordable polarized glasses that would be good for summer water adventures, but wouldn't ruin my day if they're lost to the river. I looked all over Amazon for glasses in this price range and was having a hard time deciding, as many seemed to have bipolar reviews— some claiming they're great value, others claiming they're gas station quality glasses that aren't even polarized. Well luckily I saw Knockaround's new style of frame on here and it seemed to be exactly what I wanted. I've had some of their glasses before, so I trusted their quality. The amber lenses are perfect in my opinion; not too dark, not too light, and don't distort colors drastically. They're definitely polarized, light, and hold on to my head securely, but not uncomfortably tight, so very comfortable. Also, the style seems like a classic that can really go with anything. my girlfriend tried them on and they looked good on her too, so guy or girl, give em a shot.

Every time I lose them, I buy another pair
These are great. they fit well for anything from biking to rock climbing. they provide great clearity, glare reduction, and polarization at a great price. If only I did not have to keep buying them because I lose them so frequently

Look great, super comfortable, modest durability
This is the second pair of these glasses that I've ordered. They look fantastic and are fantastic to look out of - not too dark with great polarization. They fit comfortably and snugly with soft pads on the nose bridge that hold them in place.The first pair of these which I owned, I absolutely thrashed. I took them on a long-distance bike ride, including mostly wild-camping in the forest and up mountains. They were thrown into my backpack, stuffed into my pockets and chucked into the tent, usually without a case to protect them. They got covered in sweat and sunscreen, washed off with dish soap and shielded my eyes from countless flying insects while cycling.So was it any surprise that after 6 months, the lenses were scratched up and difficult to see through clearly? No. The hinges and nose pads were still securely in place, and the lenses were showing a normal level of wear considering what I'd put them through. For me, most sunglasses are falling to pieces after this length of time - but not these ones.

Smaller than they appear online, stiff arms
Though I've had it for one day, it may not be enough to write a proper review and I'm happy to update my review after some time with the product. At first glance, the packaging seemed small. When taking the product out of the travel protective bag, it seemed small, almost like it was for kids. It is a bit small for my face but that is a preference. I love the color, I got the Olive green. The look and design are nice. The polarized lenses are nice, you can see well and it blocks the sun well. When using electronic devices such as a phone or laptop, the lenses almost blackout what you are looking at or have a sort of blue filter on it that takes time to adjust the eyes to. It also has a slight odor to it but that may just go away on its own. The weight is ok. I'm fair skinned so it does leave a significant mark on the bridge of my nose but as a result it also is not sliding off the face, they stay snug. All in all for the value, if you need to just an extra pair of glasses they may work but for "the pair" of glasses that are the preferred, these would not be it for me.

High quality materials
Great glasses, love that you can reattach the arms if they come off. Color is great and they are a great value for sunglasses especially if you lose them a lot.
