Coasta Del Mar Sunglasses

Postby ntzhunter » Tue Mar 07, 2006 10:29 am

Anyone own em, like em? Thinking about getting some, any comments or suggestions appreciated. Some people love em, some say they break easily. Also, any websites that would have the cheapest prices would be appreciated. Thanks

the only nice ones I've ever owned, am on my third pair (scratched up one, lost one). I think they're great and worth the money. go for a lighter lense (amber?) if you'll be fishing in the late afternoon. have also heard good things about maui jims and serengetis; don't know first hand.

They have them at Bowie's. I don't know about the price I have not looked but will probably be going down there this week to pick some up.

i've owned the Maui Jim's and the Costa's...love 'em both...the Costa's are heavier (I've got the MJ Sports) and sit closer to my face...both have very good polarization on the lens...get the ones that feel most comfortable and take care of them and they'll last a long time... (I've had the lenses replaced in my MJ's already, and yesterday my 2 year old daughter dropped my Costa's right on the concrete and scratched the lens)...hopefully Costa will replace them as cheaply (relatively speaking) as MJ did...haven't had any problems with either "breaking" though....

I've got some prescription Costa Del Mar's and really like them. I don't remember which model they are, but I had the ones with orange lenses and sand from the front of the boat was blowing up and taking the orange off of the lenses. I took them back and got the regular black lenses and have had no trouble.

Best ones out there( costa's) but I haven't tried any maui's yet but I am getting ready to buy another pair. had my last ones about three years and lost them, never scratched them either after many many drops and knicks! More reliable than the weather man!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
