The reason is probably to garner as much brand awareness as possible bc the goal of marketing isn't to just get a point across. If a company like DDG can gain a good amount of brand awareness by advertising and selling some relatively inexpensive sunglasses with the company logo on it then I personally see it as a net positive.
