FIT & SIZING

Essentials fit small to average sized heads best


Essentials are a classic, versatile pair made to handle both everyday wear and active days without feeling bulky. If you want a dependable “grab-and-go” frame that stays comfortable when you’re moving, this Essentials style is built as an all-arounder.


Polarized lenses help reduce eye strain while cutting glare and defining details, so your view feels sharper and easier on the eyes. You also get UV400 lens protection, giving you full UV protection for sunny days when you’re outside.


The soft rubber coatings are made to keep the frame in place through movement and sweat, which is exactly why Essentials are the perfect pair of running sunglasses. That means less adjusting and more staying focused—whether you’re out for a walk, working out, or just moving through a busy day.


If you need a prescription, we partnered with Lensabl for prescription lenses, or you can take the frames to your local optometrist.

Best Running Sunglasses!

These glasses are awesome. The polarized lenses don’t fog up AT ALL and they don’t move at all on my face. I didn’t even realize I had them on. I’ve never had a pair of sunglasses I could run in until now. Thank you!

Detour Sunglasses are the absolute BEST!!

I love these sunglasses so much! They are good looking, comfortable, and really stay on well for running, hiking, paddleboarding, etc. I got yeeted off a jet ski and they stayed on my head; That is quality! On top of that, they don't get caught in my hair, which is the absolute best. Even got engaged wearing them last month! I have 4 pairs of these in different colors and will continue to stock up! Amazing sunglasses, customer service, and company!!

Good sunglasses for working near water

These sunglasses stay on the head really well and the lenses are the most resistant to water-staining that I’ve used. I work on a dock for a floatplane tour company and constantly working above the lake means that my sunglasses have to grip tight to my head. This is the first pair I’ve used that I dont worry about losing because of how well they stay on. Also the lenses get splashed with dirty lake water all day but they have stayed perfectly clear and haven't showed any signs of staining. 5/5 star sunglasses for sure.

Best affordable for running

I’ve never so far found anything bears these sunglasses for running. I am a runner and I’ve tried expensive and cheap ones from $35-$200 and I must say these are my perfect ones for running that I and my wallet can be truly happy about. I lost the first pair and was not break in the bank to get my second one. I love that they don’t give me headache but at the same time I don’t worry they will fall off while I’m running. Black ones got lost and grey ones are my second pair.

They stay put!

I got them because when I wear my helmet, riding my horse, my sunglasses always slip and slide. The Detour sunglasses fit under my helmet and don’t hurt my ears. I’m a believer!

Holy Crap! These are nice too!

I love my new Detour sunnies. The first thing I noticed when I put them on was how clear everything is. I’ve worn polarised sunglasses for a couple of years now and these are definitely different. With these glasses on, the world looks more 3D and defined than it does to the naked eye. I also like that they’re not obstructive. If we drive through a tunnel I can still see. If I look down to adjust the climate controls in my car I don’t have to lift my sunnies to see the car dash. I can also text and drive with ease because I can see my phone screen pretty darn well.

Thanks Detour Sunglasses!

My second pair, I’m in love

These really are the most perfect running sunglasses, so good I needed a second pair! They grip your temples nicely, but without giving you a headache or any discomfort. I thought Goodrs were the best, but they just don’t feel as secure as these Detour sunglasses. You can’t go wrong with the Essentials :)

Perfect running sunnies

I’m a diehard Goodr OG fan for my running sunglasses but I saw these on IG and figured I’d give them a try. They’re very similar at first glance, except these Detour sunglasses are way more snug on my head. I bet I could jump out a plane and they wouldn’t budge. I only wish Detour had as many color options as Goodr, hopefully they do in the future!!

BEST sunglasses ever!!!!

I’m a runner and I’ve been on the lookout for cute, lightweight sunglasses that don’t slip off my face. True to their word, these sunglasses are a total no-slip! And they’re cute, fashionable and an awesome price! These will be my total go-to, no questions! Can’t wait to order more!!

Why Detour Sunglasses are the Perfect Pair!

After ordering four pairs of sunglasses to try from Amazon and not loving any of them, I was looking for a pair of sunglasses that were more reputable than the "value" options on Amazon and less costly than the big brand specs. I can't remember what I googled to discover Detour, but I am glad I looked around. These sunglasses are well-made and arrived in a couple of days via USPS. I have had them about a week and already ordered three additional pairs for my wife two kids. At these prices, I can afford to get a couple more pair without breaking the bank and know I will get responsive customer service should the need arise. Recommend.

Simply Awesome.

This is my first set of Detours, and with the price I was skeptical. I've had other brands that were "decent for the price", but these feel like a WAY higher quality than the price suggests. The fitment is great, the lens quality is great, and they seem to hold up to my less than careful care (aka, abuse) pretty well so far. If you're on the fence, buy them. You won't regret it.

The feel, the fit and the look is solid.

For the price, I was pretty surprised at the quality. They are very comfortable and have a great feel and fit to them. Plus my seven year old daughter thinks they are cool, so that is a big win too.
