High End sunglasses

[DeerMadness]

What is your favorite ? Oakley or Costa or Maui Jim ? Or just cheap sunglasses?

Edge. Keeps me legal at work for saftey glasses and only $15. Had a high end spy sunglasses. 2 months later they vanished. Basically $300 gone.

 

[Str8UpLegitHunting]

Oakley and ray-ban make nice sunglasses for an affordable price! I have both and love them.

 

[Hawkeye]

Maui Jim for sure. They can be a little bit expensive but if you watch you can find them at Costco for about $100 a pair. The most comfortable glasses and lenses I’ve ever owned!

I've had a pair of Costa's that I bought a few years ago for fishing. They have held up well and I'm happy with them. They do help me see in the water a little better than cheap polarized glasses. Probably like Swarovski binoculars are going to be better than Vortex but the only people that will really notice the difference are those that spend a lot of time behind glass.

Piss on Oakley's!

Vuarnet's ? I have lost a few pairs at the bottom of Lake Powell ! But they are getting hard to find.

 

[eelgrass]

I need reading glasses for distance and close up both, so I can't buy just straight sun glasses. I found some 2.0 readers that were sun glasses at the Dollar Store. They're great! I bought all 5 pairs that they had. If I drop a pair off the kayak, no big deal.

Maui, Kanon

 

[DeerMadness]

I have a pair of Costa 580 Gs. They are new and I look forward to driving or fishing with them. They are supposed to be the best in clarity there is. Now if I can keep from losing them.

Maui Jims period if you fish they are the best and a lifetime warrantee

 

[Tackdriver]

MIdway still has some polarized Oakleys on sale for $49, with free shipping today. You can't beat that.

 

[roadrunner]

$15 - $20 "cheap" versions. You do a lot of fishing (spending time behind glass) and things happen.

The "vortex" version work just as well as the "swaro" version when sight fishing, just to throw that out there...

 

[desperatehills]

Sunclouds, generally $45 at sportsmans warehouse

 

[Wiszard]

I wont spend more than $150 on sun glasses anymore. They always get dropped and then you've got a knick on the lens just in the wrong spot for the life of the glasses. Not worth it in my book.....

That's why I don't spend more than $20. The extra $130 is a handful of boat tank top-offs every year, a new rod, a subscription to Huntin' Fool to help me on the draws...

 

[EVILNR]

5$ "YUMS" from the fishing section in Walmart.

Good glasses, not pricy, extras lying around all the time so I have them when I want/need them.

But can you get a decent pair of polarized glasses to see those big largemouths on their beds for $20? C'Mon!!

Was hoping that's what it was.

Anything that will last over a month.

SMITH for me these days

 

[toolmann]

Switched from Oakley to Costa a few years ago. The Reefton model are ridiculously comfortable for me. I have a scar on my cornea so I have to wear sunglasses all the time.

This. Having owned all of the above and more (Revo’s aren’t mentioned yet), Wiley X are great. They are designed by guys who do stuff in them all day and it shows. Fit is fantastic and there is minimal distortion in your peripheral.

They still aren’t worth a damn to shoot in. You want shooting glasses, then you want Decot’s or something similar.

I like Maui Jim.

Good point. I agree that the more expensive sun glasses is not the best place to spend $$ if you want to catch more fish. Fortunately I've had my Costa's for about 4 years now and they are still in great shape and I haven't lost or broke them yet.

 

[DeerMadness]

I think the Costa 580 G are best.

I often don a Bill Dance costume when I hit the water. That's why I use the "oh-well" versions.

how did you get those?

 

[treedagain]

SMITH is my choice.

The last pair I got at Lens Crafters. I got the prescription from my optometrist and brought it in, but I think you can get a prescription at Lens Crafters. I also believe if you have a prescription you can get them on line but I am not sure. They were not cheap but they are great glasses.

thanks I will look into it

 

[Longun]

I second the ZZ Top Video...I go thru sun-glasses like the politicians with the mask mandate..

 

[Huntaholic]

Costas with 580G lenses are what Im wearing now. Raybans were great before luxotica bought them out, now, not so much.
