Okay, real question. If you're heading to an NWSL or MLS match this summer, do you have a pair of sunglasses that can handle a run, playing with your dog, a stop at brunch, and then heading to the big match? Because that's basically a perfect day, and it's exactly what Goodr sunglasses are built for. I'm excited about this one because Goodr now has officially licensed NWSL and MLS sunglasses, so you can rep your favorite club all summer long, whether you're out being active or just hanging with friends before kickoff. They're designed to actually move with you. They've got a no-slip grip so they stay put even when you're sweating, a no-bounce fit that runners will appreciate, and UV 400 protection for those bright afternoon matches. And there are tons of team color combos and frame styles, so you can find a pair that matches your club and your vibe for all your spring and summer plans. I can wear these out to coffee with my friends on my big trips to New York and then straight to the Gotham game after to cheer them on. If you're ready to upgrade your eyewear, head to goodr.com/mib to claim $10 off your first order when you sign up with your email. That's G-O-O-D-R .com/mib for $10 off your first order.
