Do These Glasses Make Me Look Fast?Review: Knockaround #FastLane Sunglasses

4/15/2019

 

Knockaround Sunglasses in Teal Geode

Teal Geode with Smoke Lenses. That's the name of the sunglasses I'm testing for Knockaround. OMG, I love the name. Teal Geode is a great color, and it reminds me of a dear old friend who collected geodes. So there's that. But, there's more.

I run near water a lot, so polarized lenses help reduce the glare. You can get these with non-polarized lens, too. (Photo credit: This Old Runner)
These shades are lightweight and stay on my face. That's really important when I'm running. There's not much worse than glasses that slide off your face.

The Fast Lanes worked for running and walking around town. Doing yard work. Reading a book outside. Or driving here, there, and everywhere.

The real test for my sunglasses is if they stay put through a long run. These glasses did. I forgot I had them on. (Photo credit: This Old Runner)

They're just right for people like me who wear sunglasses every single day. And, if I was the kind of person who needed lots of different pairs of glasses, in lots of different frame and lens combos, Knockaround could deliver. In budget. 

The Fast Lanes start at $20. At that price, if I'm on a boat and lose them overboard I'd be very sad, but not devastated. I could easily afford to replace them.

Fun and Affordable Glasses Made in San Diego

Knockaround as a company has a fun, friendly vibe. They're very sociable and responsive to questions. 

Check out their Instagram account. If your pup wears Knockaround shades use the hashtag #KnocksOnDogs and let them know. Follow the hashtag for a regular dose of cute dogs! Here's an example from their website:

My View of Knockaround Sunglasses

I really (really!) like the Fast Lanes. The larger lenses are good for protecting my eyes from the sun, and from flying debris when I work in the yard.

I like the color and lens options, and the price point. I'm really happy I was able to test them. I
'm even happier that I get to keep wearing them.

I don't know if Fast Lanes make me look fast. But, I do feel fast running in them!
