Costa Polarized Glasses Rincon #L Matte Smoke Crystal (Blue Mirror 580G)
Costa polarizing glasses have been highly appreciated for many years, not only by professional guides. The brilliance and imaging performance of these patented lenses has found many fans worldwide in fresh and salt water and the large selection of frames and tints offers the right model for every fly fisherman!
The sporty design of the Costa 'Rincon' allows moisture to escape quickly, preventing fogging of the lenses on the inside. Ideal for a trip to the tropics, on warm summer days or if you do get sweaty in the drill of a monster fish. The frame and temples are made of an extremely lightweight yet extremely durable nylon composite material. Thanks to flexible hinges, the pressure of the temples is adjusted to your head shape. And the rubberized nose and temple pads made of exclusive Hydrolite™ also ensure very comfortable wear and a perfect fit. The patented 580P lenses give your eyes the maximum protection from aggressive UV rays and reduce light reflections on the water surface that tire your eyes.
- Blue Mirror:
As with all Costa lenses, the polarization effect of these tints is impressive! The blue-mirrored glass is excellent for fishing on open water when the sun reflects particularly strongly. Moreover, blue- and green-mirrored lenses are very popular for sight fishing in saltwater, especially when it comes to spotting bonefish, permit, and others on the flats early. The biggest advantage of these tints is that contrasts are noticeably enhanced, allowing you to not only spot bright fish against a bright background but also identify structures more easily. For local fishing, these tints are equally suitable for coastal sea trout as well as for pike and other predators in lakes. Overall, the blue-mirrored lenses are slightly darker.
- 580G Glasses:
Costa's patented 580G glasses are made of the highest quality real glass. They are unsurpassed in performance, brilliance and clarity, and are 20% thinner and 22% lighter than conventional polarized lenses. The patented molecular compound C-WALL® gives the lenses tremendous scratch resistance, so you can enjoy your 580G lenses for many years.
