Our carbon fiber formula results in lighter, stiffer, and stronger bikes that last a lifetime. Everyone who tested the Knockaround Mile Highs said the lenses drooped too low and made them look as if they were trying to cover bags under their eyes. The ZeroUV C822 and ZeroUV C828 cat-eye sunglasses are a good buy for the price; they were pretty comfortable, and they seemed well made. Even so, the design on both was a little outlandish for most of our panel testers.

Over years of testing and wear, we still think the Sungait sunglasses fit more people better than similarly priced alternatives. They sat comfortably on our testers’ faces, thanks in part to their keyhole nose bridge, in contrast to other glasses we tried, which felt too tight or awkward. Kent Wang offers three frame colors to choose from—gold, gunmetal, and silver—and the lenses on each are the same dark shade. The colors are classic but not as exciting as the wackier variety of color options available for our J+S aviators pick. The J+S sunglasses have a sturdy metal build, and their spring hinges produce a satisfying click when you open and close the arms. These sunglasses feel well made, and we never worried about them falling apart—a good sign, especially at this price.
That test works because polarization limits the amount of light coming in horizontally while still letting light through vertically, and therefore two of the same lenses stacked at 90-degree angles should block out all light. You can view just how we did it—and how to try this test yourself with your own sunglasses—in the animation below.
