Probably more expensive than AliBaba. Which might or might not mean better quality.

More expensive, still pretty cheap, and they have a lifetime warranty which is more than you’ll ever get from alibaba

Iʻve been buying Knockaround glasses for years. Theyʻre not owned by Essilor-Luxottica and have pretty great quality that has improved over the years. Only reason Iʻve had to buy new glasses from them was either due to theft or loss.

EDIT to make the conglomerateʻs name accurate and not sound like itʻs co-owned by Aragorn using his kingly name
