Blue Mirror:
As with all Costa lenses, the polarization effect of these tints is impressive! The blue-mirrored lens is excellent for fishing on the open sea when the sun's reflection is particularly strong. Additionally, blue and green-mirrored lenses are very popular for sight fishing in saltwater, when it comes to spotting bonefish, permit, and others on the flats early on. The biggest advantage of these tints is that they noticeably enhance contrasts, allowing you to see not only the bright fish on the bright bottom better but also to detect structures more easily. These tints are also well-suited for coastal sea trout fishing as well as pike and other predator fishing in lakes at home. Overall, the blue-mirrored lenses are slightly darker.
580G Lenses:
Costa's patented 580G lenses are made from the highest quality real glass. They are unrivaled in terms of image performance, brilliance, and clarity, and compared to conventional polarized lenses, they are also 20% thinner and 22% lighter. The patented molecular bond C-WALL® gives the lenses enormous scratch resistance, allowing you to enjoy your 580G lenses for many years.
