About US

“Redneck sunglasses” typically refers to several styles of sunglasses, including oversized, wrap-around sport shades (like Pit Vipers), camouflage patterns, and novelty items like visor sunglasses. These styles are often associated with the aesthetic due to their practical, rugged, or humorous nature.

Common Styles and Types

Pit Viper-style Sunglasses: These are a prominent choice, known for their bold, wrap-around design, durability, and a wide range of colors and lens options (including polarized and mirrored lenses). The brand was founded on modifying military surplus sunglasses and has gained popularity for its retro, rugged aesthetic.

Camo-Patterned Shades: Sunglasses featuring camouflage prints on the frames are a classic interpretation of the style and can be found from various online retailers.
Visor Sunglasses: Novelty items, such as sunglasses that incorporate a built-in visor, are a humorous option often sold by costume or novelty stores.
Classic “Gas Station” Shades: As humorist Jeff Foxworthy noted, inexpensive, durable sunglasses often bought at convenience stores are also part of the informal “redneck” aesthetic, primarily for their practicality and low cost.
Work/Safety Glasses: Rugged, Z87+ safety-rated glasses, often with a wraparound design, are sometimes adopted as everyday wear due to their durability and safety standards.
