Costa Polarized Glasses Brine Readers Magnifier Tortoise (Green Mirror 580P +2.50)
Costa polarized sunglasses have been highly valued by professional guides for many years. The brilliance and imaging performance of these patented lenses have gained many fans worldwide, both in freshwater and saltwater fishing. The wide range of frames and tints offers the perfect model for every fly fisher.
The Costa Brine Readers Magnifier Polarized Sunglasses are the perfect choice for those whose eyes need a little extra support. The Magnifier polycarbonate lenses come in three different strengths, helping not only with spotting fish but also with tying knots on increasingly smaller hook eyes as we age. The patented C-Mate technology provides the perfect combination of reading glasses and polarized sunglasses! Additionally, the bifocal area is integrated into the lower part of the lens, avoiding any distracting separation in the field of view. Beyond the Magnifier feature, these sporty sunglasses offer technical highlights such as rubberized nose pads and temple tips for added comfort, as well as ventilation holes in the frame to improve airflow and prevent fogging.
Green Mirror:
As with all Costa lenses, the polarization effect of this tint is impressive! The green-mirrored lens is an all-rounder for saltwater fishing and is excellent for sight fishing when spotting bonefish, permit, and other species on the flats. The biggest advantage of this tint is the noticeable contrast enhancement, allowing you to see bright fish against a bright background more clearly and detect structures more easily. For local fishing, this tint is well-suited for sea trout along the coast and for pike and other predators in lakes. It is slightly lighter than the 'Blue Mirror' lenses, which are also recommended for saltwater fishing.
580P Lenses with 2,50 Magnification:
Costa's patented 580P lenses are made from durable polycarbonate and Trivex, making them particularly lightweight and ensuring the best wearing comfort for a long day on the water. The patented molecular bonding C-WALL® coating provides exceptional scratch resistance, allowing you to enjoy the brilliant imaging performance of the 580P lenses for many years.
