Yep, good glasses and a good hat with a wide brim is best for sight fishing.

One thing I know for sure, Costas warranty and turn around is good. Search the boards for a couple of threads about it.

Bingo!! I bought a pair of yellow lensed Kaenon's last year and love em'. For early morning to mid-day they can't be beat. I do switch to Costa's once the sun is in full gear only because I don't have darker shaded Kaenon's...

Great sunglasses, Ive had mine for about 3 years now and they are honestly some of the toughest frames Ive ever had

I have a pair of oakley pitbull with orange tint lense, I only wear them when I'm fishing. someone gave me a pair of cocoons, they're not bad, just ugly! they cost $50

Wiley Xs at work?

Have had same pr. of costa's for more than 10 years and still love them! Costa (Wave killer) made for larger faces. strongly suggest glass lenses if you can handle the weight of glasses lens. You can clean them with end of shirt and never get scratched. My frame did break once but very inexpensive to send off for repair.(like $30 I think) but it was my fault they broke and they fixed them up no questions asked. Pick up a Costa brochure and pick a frame size sm, med, or large to fit your size face. You will not be sorry you spent the extra $ in the long run if you take care of them.

Yeh they gave us a pair of polarized and transitional lenses for work when I was offshore.
I like the transitional ones for work but the polarized green mirror ones we got weren't to impressive and the foam peice is just there to be a nasty uncomfortable and un natural sweat absorber.......

Maui Jim all the way I prefer them over costas can wear them for outdoor activities and for casual dress

Ah, thought you were talking about where we work.

Been wearing costas for a several years. Ain't gonna get nothing else.

Got the Wiley x and with the foam insert in place I can run the boat without my eyes watering. Would prolly help riding motorcycles too.

Anyone ever use these?
I've used costas for years but always looking at new options.

laugh all you want, but Berkleys at WalMart for five bucks are very good. Almost disposable, got a few pair for guests on the boat who show up with non-polarized. No worry whatsoever about loss, scratching, warranty hassle and/or time to turn them around.

I know yall love your Costas, but the Berkleys are an outstanding back-up or replacement.

X2 on berkleys but lenses pop out. Oh we'll buy another pair hard to that with costas. I'm gonna give y'all insight on warranty for costas. Lifetime warranty on "manufacturer defect" I've sent 5 pairs in and only once did they warranty them all other times its the cost of lenses...mirror 580=$99 copper 580=89$.... This is last time I pay for em next time ill sell them for 75%off and let the buyer ship em. 10$ ship, 89$fee, 10$ ship back. They new lenses now not new frames. I'm hard on glasses but at that price they should be nearly indestructible.

Walmart also sells some glasses made by Wiley x but cheaper. They have a similar name. My brother in law has them and loves them. I think they run in the 50-70 market.

Are those berkleys the ones that come with a sweet tan line?

He where's Kenny powers glasses. Stevie designed!

Yeah I quit sending in my costas. For 30 bucks more what they want for repair and shipping you can get a new pair on eBay for. They need to step up on the frames. I break more frames than lenses and the paint usually wears off before anything. A good pair with titanium frames would be the shizz.

I don't know *** y'all are doin to these frames, I've never had any come close to breaking. Y'all hell on wheels
