Costa Reefton Polarized Sunglasses Blackout (Sunrise Silver Mirror 580P Lenses)
For years, Costa’s polarized sunglasses have been a staple for world-class guides and everyday anglers alike - all around the world. The color brilliance and clarity performance of these patented glasses have earned many fans of both salt and freshwater fishing. With a wide variety of frames and tints, there is a model for every fly fisherman, whether they’re chasing Golden Dorado in Bolivia or Sea Trout on the Baltic Sea.
With 12 different river systems less than an hour's drive from town, it's no wonder New Zealand's Reefton is world-renowned for its freshwater fishing. The large frames of the Reefton sunglasses are perfect for those with large heads. They’re also a great companion to explore any body of water and will stay put under any conditions thanks to their co-molded temples, Hydrolite™ nose and temple pads, and cam-action spring hinges.
Sunrise Silver Mirror Lenses:
As with all Costa glasses, the polarization effect of the 'Sunrise Silver Mirror' tint is impressive! The yellow glass is particularly suitable for fishing in flowing waters, as the light tint only slightly darkens your view, allowing you to see underwater structure even better. In low light conditions or during the evening hatch, when other tints block too much sunlight, you can continue to use these glasses. This special tint is quite unique, as the yellow glasses are also mirrored from the outside. Your hero shots with your catch will be that much better! ;)
580P Lens Material:
The patented 580P lenses by Costa are made of durable polycarbonate and Trivex. This makes them very lightweight giving you the most comfort for a long day on the water. The patented molecular compound C-WALL® also gives the lenses tremendous scratch resistance, so you can enjoy their brilliant performance for many years.

On adh-world we explain how polarized sunglasses work and what to keep in mind when purchasing a new pair.
„Polarized sunglasses play an important role in fly fishing. They not just protect the eye from erred flies or streamers and dangerous uv-radiation, but also reduce glare from the surface and help you spotting fish and reading the water more effectively.“
