Costa Polarized Glasses Taxman Matte Black (Sunrise Silver Mirror 580G)
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 followers worldwide in both freshwater and saltwater environments. The wide selection of frames and tints ensures that every fly fisherman can find the perfect model.
The Costa Taxman Polarized Sunglasses feature a large frame and oversized lenses for optimal shielding. The frame and lenses are designed to minimize light entry as much as possible, ensuring an ideal polarization effect. At the same time, sufficient airflow is provided to prevent fogging. Even the nose pads have ventilation holes to support circulation. Additionally, the rubberized nose pads enhance comfort. The frame's geometry is also designed to prevent caps or hats from being lifted by the frame. For a secure fit, even on wet skin, the Hydrolite rubber on the temples offers exceptional grip. Furthermore, the construction beneath the lenses and in the temples incorporates geometries that allow water and sweat to drain efficiently.
Sunrise Silver Mirror:
Like all Costa lenses, the polarization effect of the Sunrise Silver Mirror tint is impressive! The yellow lens is particularly well-suited for fishing in flowing waters, as its light tint provides minimal darkening, allowing you to perceive the structure of the water even better. 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 on the outside. So, you can confidently keep them on your nose 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 imaging performance, brilliance, and clarity. Compared to conventional polarized lenses, they are also 20% thinner and 22% lighter. The patented molecular bonding C-WALL® provides the lenses with exceptional scratch resistance, ensuring that you can enjoy your 580G lenses for many years.
