Knockaround Brightsides Polarized Sunglasses
If you searched knockaround brightsides polarized sunglasses or are just comparing polarized knockarounds, the Brightsides is Knockaround's polarized take on an everyday pair of shades built to handle bright, glare-heavy days.
What Polarized Means for a Day on the Water
Polarized lenses cut the horizontal glare that bounces off water, sand, and boat decks, which is exactly the kind of light South Florida throws at you most of the year. That is the main reason boaters, anglers, and beachgoers reach for a polarized pair over a standard tinted lens.
Who Reaches for the Brightsides
This is a straightforward pair of sunglasses for anyone who wants glare protection for the beach, the boat, or just daily driving and errands in constant Florida sun. It fits into a routine where sunglasses come off and on all day, from the dock to the car to the store.
Getting the Most Out of Polarized Sunglasses
- Rinse them in fresh water after time at the beach or on the boat to keep salt and sand from scratching the lenses
- Store them in a case or a soft pouch when not in use rather than tossing them loose in a bag
- Clean lenses with a microfiber cloth instead of a shirt hem, which can grind in grit over time
- Keep them out of a hot dashboard for long stretches, since prolonged heat can warp frames on any pair of sunglasses
The Knockaround Story
Knockaround was founded in 2005 by Ace during his time as a graduate art student at the University of California, San Diego. He merged the classic East Coast prep style of his Virginia upbringing, his interest in design and fashion, and a newfound love for the perpetually sunny, laid-back lifestyle of Southern California into a sunglasses line meant to be both practical and stylish, which is the philosophy behind the Brightsides.
