goodr BFG Polarized Sunglasses, Hooked on Onyx
Light, grippy polarized shades that truly fit big heads, with lenses that scratch easily.
We bought MAXJULI Polarized Big Sunglasses for Men Women with Big Heads, UV 400 Protection (fit XL size), Black/Green. It's no longer documented anywhere, so this page reviews the closest well-covered match. MAXJULI had no readable coverage, so this is the closest well documented big head polarized sunglass from a known brand at a similar price.
The short version
- People whose regular sunglasses pinch at the temples
- Runners and active users who need shades that do not bounce
- Buyers who want polarized lenses without paying premium brand prices
- You are hard on lenses and want a tough scratch coating
- You need adjustable nose pads for a custom fit
- Your head is average sized, where the OG fits better
What owners like
- Wide enough for larger heads
- Stays on during long, sweaty runs
- Light enough to forget they are on
- Low price for polarized lenses
Common complaints
- The scratch resistant coating is thin, so lenses mark easily
- No adjustable nose pads
- Some buyers found the glare reduction weaker than expected
- Polarized lenses can make phone and car screens hard to read

What it does
Large sized polarized sunglasses with a black frame and black non reflective lenses, built wider with longer arms for big heads. This page covers them in place of the MAXJULI big head sunglasses, which had too little readable coverage.
- Same shape as goodr's OG, with a wider frame, longer arms and bigger lenses
- Polarized lenses that block UVA and UVB rays
- Grip coating and silicone pads meant to stop slipping and bouncing
- Light enough for all day wear
- Unisex styling
A good pick for people with larger heads who want light, grippy polarized shades that stay put while running or moving around. The trade off is lens durability: goodr's scratch resistant coating is described as thin, and there are no adjustable nose pads, so fit depends on the frame alone.
