    I'm in the same Boat Kylie. I'm looking for some new shades but I haven't been hearing good things about Costas lately. I would like to hear some feedback as well.

          Costas are fantastic, but it's hard to swallow paying that much. I've never had a pair of sunglasses that were as good as Costas.

            For the money, the $80 Magellans at Academy are really hard to beat. I bought a pair when I accidentally left my Smith's in Houston on a trip. I like them every bit as well as my Smith's and my Costas.

                  I love my costas and owned them for about 2 maybe three years with no problems. They have a lifetime warranty so there should not be any worries. Save up and buy a quality pair. Best glasses I have owned

                    quality and COMFORTABLE sunglasses are a must when out on the water all day. I buy the cheap costas @ ~$125 I think of it like a fishing rod and reel. You buy the most expensive ones you can afford!

                        I have no idea which commercial grade glasses there are out there now, but the Ray Ban wrap arounds I had were great. I have prescription glasses now, but just make sure they are polarized. Remember - you get what you pay for and you will be wearing them ALL Day LONG...

                          If I was going to buy some more, I'd git the Costa with the reflective blue lenses instead of the smoke color I got. For very bright, sunny days the reflection, polarization, and UV protection, the blue is the way to go. Makes ya feel cooler somehow, looks cool too. For cloudy water on cloudy/hazy days, the smoke can be better.

                          With my vision starting to going to heck, I might need prescription sunglasses. You might consider that because you can watch you cast, line, and retrieval so much better. Expensive but worth it IMHO.

                          Yeah, my grand-daddy always used polarized clip-ons you could flip up or down if you had regular glasses. He was a baaaaad dude on a fly line, always caught some big brutes and sows.

                              Dude, I wear a 7 dollar pair from academy. Don't hurt my feelings too much when I accidently flick them over the side of the boat. My next pair will be fishgillz.
                              Yeah, and all the muchachas they call me big pappa, when I throw pesos their way!
