Pelagic Polarized.... They are comfortable, light weight, great lenses (although plastic, I have not scratched either pair once this entire year), and they are eisier on the wallet

Have you tried Maui Jim's and Costa's and found that you liked the Smith's the best? From my research it seems that Costa and Smith are neck in neck in terms of clarity of lenses. Costa's are rated slightly higher because of the glass lens compared to Smith's Chromapop which are offered in plastic. Here is the review that I saw. http://www.itinerantangler.com/blog/...80-technology/ Here is a review that likes the Smith better. http://www.surfocracoke.com/smith-chromapop-review/ I am going to check out the Smith's and do a comparison. |
I had some Costas I really liked. I'm hard on glasses and they scratched up faster than I thought they should have. I took them to the Fred Hall show and talked to one of the guys in their booth who told me to send them in and they would replace the lenses at full cost to me plus shipping both ways. Needless to say I was not impressed. Smiths are looking to be a good option.

I just returned my Costas with 580G lenses and they are going to replace them with new lenses and frames for 11.99. Go to the website and then register a repair and then they send you a shipping label by email to print up. You pay 11.99 by credit card and then they hold that. Send them back and then call them. They will tell you what is needed to repair them. I thought the customer service was pretty good. The maui jims I had they wanted 50 dollars to repair them. |
I have never tried Costas, had a couple pairs of Maui Jims, liked the lenses, did not really care for the fit of them.

Fuze lenses for almost any pair of glasses is the way I go now. way cheaper than buying a new pair and they also offer polarized I always go with....

I vote too for the Smith Optics but you can select different style and color of glasses. For strong dissension, you should read other review to select some of any Costa Fisch sunglasses that suit you..

I have an older pair of Maui Jim Guy Harvey Editions.
My problem is the need for prescription lenses, which really limits which frames I can have. I envy you guys that can go out and spend 12 bucks on sun glasses. Zenni Optical is now carrying a line of sun glass frames, and I can choose any coating, color and polarization I want - so my next pair will be inexpensive ones from them. Will not be as well made as my Maui Jims, but I can afford to replace them every year for the $60 they cost. http://m7.i.pbase.com/g10/85/360685/...7.PFGVextA.jpg |
I've loved every pair of Smith's I've owned, including their Chromapop's. Never owned Costa's, but have tried some friends pairs and was impressed. My style is more geared towards Smith so that's where my $$ has always gone.
The one thing I will offer as a suggestion, is to take into consideration the fact that your lenses are the last thing between your eyes and a treble hook. I can't tell you how many times I've set the hook on a ghost and thrown a crank bait/flipping weight/whatever towards my face at a thousand miles an hour. I will never, EVER buy cheap sunglasses for that very specific reason... |
