Costa polarized sunglasses have been highly appreciated by professional guides for many years. The brilliance and optical performance of these patented lenses have gained many fans worldwide in both freshwater and saltwater environments, and the wide selection of frames and tints ensures that every fly fisher can find the perfect model.
The Costa Tailfin Polarized Sunglasses are sporty polarized sunglasses with a genius frame designed for comfort and performance. In addition to the large lenses, the bio-resin frame features side shields that prevent sunlight from entering from the sides. This ensures an optimal polarization effect, allowing you to spot fish much more easily without distractions from the side. The rubberized temple areas and nose pads provide a secure and comfortable fit, even on wet skin.
Sunrise Silver Mirror:
Like all Costa lenses, the polarization effect of the 'Sunrise Silver Mirror' tint is impressive! The yellow-tinted glass is particularly well-suited for fishing in flowing waters, as the bright tint minimizes dimming and allows you to see the structure of the water more clearly. In low-light conditions or during the evening rise, when other tints absorb too much sunlight, you can continue using these lenses. What makes this tint unique is that the yellow lenses are mirrored from the outside, so you can confidently keep them on for a hero shot.
580G Lenses:
Costa's patented 580G lenses are made from the highest quality real glass. They are unmatched in terms of optical performance, brilliance, and clarity. Compared to conventional polarized lenses, they are also 20% thinner and 22% lighter. The patented molecular bond C-WALL® gives the lenses exceptional scratch resistance, ensuring that you can enjoy your 580G lenses for many years.
