Knockaround Deja Views Polarized Sunglasses

Polarized Protection with a Classic Cat-Eye Shape
The Knockaround Deja Views deliver a bold, retro-inspired cat-eye silhouette with the optical upgrade that actually matters: polarized lenses. Knockaround has been building affordable, genuinely well-made sunglasses since 2005, blending East Coast prep sensibility with California coastal ease. The Deja Views bring that same ethos to a distinctly feminine frame that earns its place on any beach, boat, or boardwalk.
Polarized Lenses Built for Glare
Polarized lenses work by filtering horizontally oriented light waves, which are the primary source of glare off flat surfaces like water, sand, and pavement. The result is sharper contrast, more comfortable vision in bright sun, and less eye fatigue on long days outdoors. For anyone spending time on the water or in the South Florida sun, polarized is the meaningful upgrade over standard tinted lenses.
A common question is whether polarized sunglasses distort vision. The filtering effect can occasionally make LCD screens appear dim or create a subtle color shift on certain reflective surfaces, but it does not affect depth perception or general visual clarity. Most wearers adapt immediately and prefer the cleaner view.
The Deja Views Frame
The oversized cat-eye frame shape flatters a wide range of face geometries by adding definition at the outer corners of the eye. The frame is constructed from a lightweight plastic material with clean hinge hardware and the Knockaround logo at the temple. The silhouette sits confidently between statement and everyday wearable, making it easy to pair with casual coastal outfits or dress up for a day out.
About Knockaround
Knockaround was founded in 2005 by Ace, then a graduate art student at the University of California, San Diego. The brand merges classic prep style with a laid-back coastal design sensibility, with a clear goal: sunglasses that are both practical and stylish, without the premium price tag of fashion-house eyewear. The Deja Views sit squarely in that tradition.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Are the Knockaround Deja Views polarized?
- Yes. The Deja Views feature polarized lenses that cut glare from water, sand, and other reflective flat surfaces, delivering sharper, more comfortable vision in bright conditions.
- Do polarized sunglasses distort vision?
- Polarized lenses filter horizontally oriented light to reduce glare, which is not the same as distortion. They do not affect depth perception. LCD screens and certain reflective surfaces may appear slightly dimmer, but overall visual clarity is improved, not reduced.
- Are the Knockaround Deja Views good for the beach or water activities?
- Yes. Polarized lenses are specifically effective in outdoor, high-glare environments like the beach, on the water, or around pools, making the Deja Views a practical choice for those settings.
- What face shape do cat-eye sunglasses suit?
- Cat-eye frames tend to complement oval, round, heart, and square face shapes by lifting the visual line at the outer corners of the eye. The oversized Deja Views silhouette adds definition without overwhelming most face geometries.
- Where can I buy Knockaround Deja Views sunglasses?
- The Deja Views are available in store and online at Island Water Sports in South Florida.
- How should I care for my Knockaround sunglasses?
- Wipe lenses with a microfiber cloth to avoid scratching the polarized coating. Rinse frames with fresh water after salt water exposure and store in a case when not in use to protect the frame and lenses.
