We're getting deep into the treasure chest of polarized prowess, unearthing gems that are so flockin’ cool that even Carl the Flamingo would bedazzle his next tropical print bodysuit with them. So, if you’re ready to shield your peepers and blind your frenemies with a fierce reflection, keep reading.

What Do You Need To Know About Polarized Sunglasses?

Ever feel like you're squinting to see through the evil rays of the sun? Enter the hero (ideally in a tight suit, if that’s your thing) of our story: polarized sunglasses. These aren't your average tinted windows to the soul. These polarized glasses are equipped with the tech to send glare running for the hills—and not even cool hills with chalets at the bottom—terrible f*cking hills.

Polarized lenses have the power to filter the chaos of harmful UV light, letting you see the world in HD clarity. Colors will pop left, right, and center like a mothaflockin’ disco ball, with additional clarity that sharpens every detail.

What Are the Key Features to Look For?

When it comes to kitting out your peeper protector arsenal, it's not just about picking the shiniest tool in the shed. You're on a quest for the best of the best sunglasses that'll make even the brightest days bow down in respect. 

Here’s the lowdown on forging your sun-shielding weaponry:

  • Lenses: Dive into the heart of the beast with polarized lenses that stare down glare. These lenses absolutely obliterate all glare in sight, making sure you're always the one standing in the winner's circle of clear vision.
  • UV Protection: Your eyes are hella precious. Just look at ‘em. Look at those cute f*cking little eyeballs in your skull. Adorable. Keep ‘em safe with UV protection that blocks out treacherous rays faster than you blocked that roommate who broke your foosball table and tried to stage a break-in. (We all know it was you, Joshua. Stop embarrassing yourself.) It’s your personal guardian against invisible UV rays, ensuring your peepers stay in the royal condition. All goodr sunnies come equipped with maximum protection– UV400, that’s top-of-the-line baybeee.
  • Frames: Seek out frames forged in the fires of Mount Carl. AKA goodrs. Durability should meet design in this blend. Find eyewear that's as sturdy as a tank but looks like it rolled straight out of a high-fashion photoshoot.
  • Featherlight Weight: Keep your peeper on the lookout for frames so light you'll forget they're perched on your nose. It's like wearing a cloud—if clouds made you look bangin’ as hell.
  • Pricepoint: Look, we get it– sh*t is expensive these days, even if you don’t have an unhinged flamingo CEO who blew half your annual budget on yachts and shrimp cocktails. When you’re breaking a sweat, the last thing on your mind should be stressing about not breaking your sunglasses. All of our shades are durable and high-performance, but we don’t jam in a bunch of unnecessary overengineering to jack up the price tag. goodr sunglasses start at just $25 (no, that’s not a typo), so if you play a little too hard and you hear a crunch when you land, you can replace your goodrs without breaking the bank.

What Are the Top Polarized Sunnies for Men?

Now that you know what to look for, let's explore the top picks for men that will have you turning heads wherever you go– goodr style, obviously. And before we go any further, we should also mention that you should wear whatever makes you happy. All of our sunglasses were designed to be unisex, so if we carry them and you like them, that’s the perfect pair for you. All that said, here are some of our customers’ top pics for men’s sunglasses.

Enter Captain Blunt's Red Eye, where the vibe is always chill, and the style is as laid-back as a pilot taking a mid-flight nap during their third red eye flight in a row. (Don’t worry, that’s what co-pilots are for. At least your co-pilot isn’t a sloppy flamingo– OH NO.) With polarized red reflective lenses, they're like a love letter to those who like their colors loud and their vibes louder.

How To Buy Polarized Sunglasses for Different Face Shapes

Impromptu Disco Nap | Retro G

Understanding shopping for face shapes with sunglasses can feel like trying to solve a Rubik's Cube blindfolded, on a unicycle, wearing oven mitts. But fear not– we gotcha, dude. Peep the guide below to have this puzzle magically transform into a cakewalk (or a cake-run for the athletically inclined.) 

Let's discuss the art of matching your magnificent mug with the perfect pair of polarized peeper protectors:

Round Face

If your face has a round shape to it, aim for sunglasses that balance out the softness and spice things up with angles sharp enough to cut through a ‘70s disco dance floor. Think square or rectangular frames that add a bit of edge, making your facial features pop like the bass line of that one song in the club you can never remember the name of but hum the whole next day.

Oval Face

Oval faces, it’s your time to shine. You have lots of flexibility with a facial structure equivalent to a universal charger, fitting almost any frame style. Sport, whatever makes you feel like a star. (Though if we’re being honest, that’s always true with any face shape.)

Square Face

With a jawline that could cut glass and cheekbones that are snatched as the day is long, soften your natural sculpted edges with the curves of round or oval sunglasses. They're the yin to your yang, offering a visual balance to your features.

Heart Face

For heart-shaped certified baddies with broad foreheads and petite chins, seek wider frames that compliment your features. Square shapes (like our OG sunglasses) or cat-eye sunglasses like our Pop Gs or Runways are your best bet, accentuating your eyes and bringing balance to your look.

Diamond Face

You should reach for frames that hug the cheekbones without overshadowing your face’s natural contours. Rimless or oval frames perfectly illuminate your features without stealing the shine from your naturally bejeweled look. (NICE!)

Why Wear Polarized Sunglasses Anyway?

We've paraded through the hall of fame for men's polarized sunglasses, but you might be wondering, "Why should I join the polarized posse?" 

Let's peel back the layers of this luminous onion and reveal why these sunnies are your eyeball's best buddies in the ongoing feud with the sun’s down and dirty rays.

  • Enhanced Vision: Why would you want to squint in the bright sun??? Polarized lenses reduce glare, providing sharper and clearer vision whether you're driving, hiking a trail, or catching some gnarly waves, brah.
  • Eye Protection: Your peepers deserve the best, and goodr’s polarized sunglasses offer UV400 protection, the highest protection on the market, shielding your eyes from those harmful rays.
  • Reduced Eye Fatigue: Long days under the sun can lead to eye strain, but polarized lenses work like a charm to reduce eye fatigue and keep you feeling fresh as a daisy.
  • Improved Contrast and Clarity: Colors pop, details shine, and your surroundings come to life with polarized sunglasses’ enhanced contrast and clarity. It’s like watching the world through the lens of a sick photo filter on social media, but if those filters were even cooler and not reflective of society's unrealistic beauty standards. You get it.
  • Comfort and Style: Who says safety can't be sexy? With polarized sunglasses, you get to protect your eyes while looking like the lead in a summer blockbuster that might just have that one actor (you know the one) as your costar. It's the ultimate blend of fashion and function, proving you can turn all the flamingo heads in the flock while blocking out the glare.

With all these unbeatable benefits, it's easy to see that polarized sunglasses are a must-have accessory for any modern gent. Grab your favorite pair, hit the streets, and bask in the glory of looking like a total badass with unparalleled eye protection.

What Are You Waiting For?

Man versus glare. It’s the newest hit show on cable that absolutely no one asked for, but here it absolutely is. But for those of you who want to keep pretending you don’t watch TV because you prefer to read quietly while sipping on pretentious red wine like the Refined Grown Up™ you are, we’ll give you the low down.

For all you dudes out there, the top takeaway is that polarized lenses are cool, sexy, stylish, and practical. Seriously, maintaining your eyeball quality is on the green flag list. Basically, polarized sunglasses from goodr aren't just about shielding your orbs. (We’re immediately sorry for calling them orbs.) They’re also for making you look and feel better every time you step outside.

Polarization is essential in the perfect pair of peeper protectors. So, what are you waiting for? Check out our sick collection of sunnies for men. All the flamingos will be drooling at the sight of it. If that’s scientifically possible.
