Why goodr Sunglasses Make the Best Secret Santa Gifts

Why goodr Sunglasses Make the Best Secret Santa Gifts

Ah, Secret Santa, a tradition like no other. From unforgettable to unforgivable gifts (like that toilet seat–surprise, it totally came in handy), the pressure is on to find something cool, thoughtful, and budget-friendly. Enter goodr sunglasses: the perfect mix of absurdity, style, and price. They’ll make the best Secret Santa gifts; even your impossible-to-shop-for friend will love ‘em (yeah, we’re side-eyeing you Janice!!!). This gift guide is guaranteed to bring a confetti of fun this holiday season.

What Makes a Great Secret Santa Gift?

What’s the secret to Secret Santa? Well, we'll tell ya! Start by getting your gift in time for the exchange, or you’ll end up scrambling for a last minute gift at your local gas station. We guess that weird-flavored pickle would make a thoughtful gift, but a great Secret Santa *gift* should also be universally appealing and not wildly expensive.

Secret Santa gifts that fit various personalities don’t grow on trees. That would be cool AF though. They call for something a little more personal, unique, and fun. We all know the best Secret Santa gifts make the recipient feel like a unicorn!!! Holiday gifts that scream “I totally get you!” are always a hit, proving you’ve traversed the extra mile on a pogo stick of creativity.

Why goodr Sunglasses Are Perfect for Secret Santa:

Affordability 

We aren’t statistics people, but we’d bet Carl the Flamingo’s first born that most Secret Santa gifts involve dodging the awkwardness of having to guess someone’s shirt size. Or navigating the treacherous waters of gift-giving without sinking your budget, all while hoping that your gift recipient doesn’t toss your present in the trash right in front of you. (This has never happened, but could you imagine???)

For the ultimate Secret Santa gift, you don’t need to break the bank on outrageously expensive sunglasses, but that doesn’t mean you should opt for cheap sunglasses either. Ideally you want to land on great quality meets budget-friendly, and goodr sunglasses check every box. We’ll even throw in fun and stylish because we’re just that generous (they said humbly)!!!

goodr makes super affordable sunglasses with all the high-performance features you'd want in your sunglasses. We're talking polarized lenses, no-slip grip, and a lightweight, comfy fit–all without the anger-inducing, table flipping price tag.

Variety of Styles

Maybe you picked names out of a hat or are got invited to a friend of a friend’s holiday party where you know *checks notes* no one. Or you were invited to your partner’s family party and you got Uncle Bill thrice removed, or was he a fourth cousin twice removed? Don’t worry, when it comes to options, we have you covered. Whether your recipient is sporty and fun, serious and sophisticated, edgy and free–we have something for every baddie (we gotchu Uncle Bill) in your life in a variety of colors and styles.

Quality and Durability

Could you imagine a Secret Santa gift made of poor quality?! Couldn’t be us. Or one that slipped right off their face?! Talk about an embarrassing holiday fail. 

Thankfully, goodr sunglasses are durable and made from high-quality materials. That means they won’t slip or bounce when Aunt Susie busts out a cartwheel when she receives her very own Unicorn’s Calamity. goodr sunglasses are snug and light-weight to prevent bouncing while running, dancing, or Zumba’ing (is that still a thing?! Shall we ask Aunt Susie?).

Need some polarization in your life? Who doesn’t. All goodr sunglasses come with glare-reducing, all polarized lenses and UV400 protection that blocks 100% of those nasty harmful UVA and UVB rays, so John from accounting can enjoy his bird watching expedition without worrying about the annoying glare from lake water or the tears on his own face from seeing a Cerulean Warbler in real life. Oh, John, you may be too pure for this world…

Fun and Quirky

What’s a Secret Santa exchange without a legendary tale? Picture this: that random rando you got at your friend of a friend’s holiday shindig is a secret paleontologist, they rip open their gift and–BAM!!!–they discover you’ve bestowed upon them Fossil Finding Focals–part tongue twister, part rad shades! You just won Secret Santa before the holiday fruitcake even came out. 

goodr sunglasses are known for their playful names, absurd, yet stylish, designs. And let’s not forget our fun cases, which add an extra layer of whimsy to your holiday gift-giving extravaganza!!!

goodr Sunglasses for Different Personality Types

For the Fitness Enthusiast:

Need something for Crossfit Chad in 2B? goodr sunglasses are ideal for the fitness enthusiasts, workout buffs, and yoga folks alike. The Do It For The Victory Dance is perfect for the person who lives for that Thursday night softball game and Side Scroll Eye Roll is the perfect day to night look when you have a brewery meetup after yoga. 

For the mountain shredding bikers in your life, the Crystal Clear Chaos are a great gift that’ll keep ‘em stylish and protected on those bumpy and steep trails.

goodr sunglasses are designed with active lifestyles in mind. Each pair has a no-slip, no-bounce fit, so they stay put during runs, workouts, or dance-offs. Plus, they’re lightweight and polarized, offering ultimate protection from the sun without killing the vibe or weighing you down during the big race.

For the Trendsetter:

For our fashion-forward friends who love a statement piece we can’t help but love Operation Blackout or The Mod One Out. They scream, “I set the trends and you will follow or else…” And, we hope to never find out!!!

Rumor has it that the Approaching Cult Status would have been the star of Clueless if they were made 30 years sooner. (Totally not a rumor started by CEO Carl the Flamingo.) But for those that like to keep it casual but on point, the I’m Wearing Burgundy are a sure hit anytime of the year.

goodr sunglasses are perfect for your stylish, trend-centric friends who know what’s hot and in style, and will make sure to tell you when you’re lookin a lil’ too cheugy. (What if cheugy was the vibe we were going for?!)

For the Quirky Friend:

For the friend who beats to their own drum and loves adventure–we recommend Shrimpin’ Ain’t Easy or the Threatin’ Me with a Good Time for that full party-mode experience. 

goodr sunglasses are fit for any gal, pal, or Dale (did that rhyme? It felt like it did). With a variety of options and styles, we invite you to be unabashedly yourself 24/7 just like Dale!!! We just know his AIM screen name was Sw3dishMeatballLover69 which is why we made the Swedish Meatball Hangover for people like him and those quirky individuals in your life.

goodr sunglasses come in tons of original and bold designs that match any vibe or occasion. So, if you’re looking for sunnies that are certified funky fresh, like your silly, goofy friend, look no further this holiday season!!!

For the Practical Giver:

If you’re looking to get something classic, timeless, and iconic AF look no further than Bosley’s Basset Hound Dreams.  These fun conversation starters are perfect for any look–a fan favorite for a reason–which means practical givers and sunglasses wearers will love ‘em.

Or these tortoise aviators, perfect for the folks who love versatility, comfort, and live for the thrill of the classic ghosting after the first date: Amelia Earhart Ghosted Me. Oh, Amelia, you may have left a gaping hole in our hearts this holiday season, but these sunnies will fill that void.

Maybe tortoise-colored sunnies aren’t your Secret Santa’s jam, no problemo!!! We got classic black sunnies in our repertoire, too, like Hooked on Onyx–great for work and play. Bonus points if they’ve got a magnum-sized noggin.

goodr sunglasses are like the Swiss Army knife of eyewear, combining style and function at a price that won’t make your wallet weep. Every pair of goodr sunglasses is durable, lightweight, polarized, and come with a no-slip and no-bounce design that makes them ideal for any adventure, workout, and day-to-day life.

How to Package goodr Sunglasses for a Secret Santa Gift

A man and woman in retro black and white outfits smile in white angled cat-eye sunglasses with black lenses.

When it comes to packaging your goodr sunglasses, wrap ‘em up in unicorn-shaped packaging because that’s what they’re getting, a one-of-a-kind experience!!! Keep it fun and playful, and if you can recycle, why not? Old Cheerio boxes are always a hit, right???

Since you’re already going the distance, why not go the extra mile with a gnarly sunglasses case like The Gnarliest Case Ever? It’ll keep your Secret Santa’s new pair of The World is My Canvas sunnies tucked away safe and sound. We recommend a case for all goodr sunglasses to keep ‘em safe and scratch-free when not in use. Not to mention, it's a great way to keep them from getting lost in your car, bag, or the abyss.

The perfect Secret Santa gift does exist

Why are goodr sunglasses the perfect Secret Santa gift? 

Let’s recap: they’re stylish, affordable, and come in a ton of fun, quirky designs that’ll suit just about anyone. (If a flamingo can rock ‘em, you can, too!!!) Plus, they’re functional–all polarized, no-slip, no-bounce, and perfect for everything from outdoor adventures to coffee dates to casual weekend hangs to last minute coven outings.

With goodr, your Secret Santa gift is both cool and practical, without sending your budget into the stratosphere!!! So, if you want to be the Secret Santa MVP (a very real and coveted title) this year, consider grabbing a pair (or two) of goodr sunglasses for your upcoming holiday gift exchange.

But don’t be surprised when word gets out about your new Secret Santa MVP title, we cannot be held responsible if you get invited to more Secret Santa gift exchanges. With great gift giving abilities, comes great responsibility…
