I'm a cop , so I go through a bunch of sunglasses and for that reason, usually don't splurge with more expensive products. My father in law had a pair and went on and on, so I decided to give it a shot, however I was skeptical. Initially I purchased another Costa model, pair with poly carbonate lenses and was very impressed. The clear clean look was something I had never really experienced. It's like you don't realize what you don't have. I use those at work, and really wanted to try the saltbreak with glass lenses for off work use where I'm less likely to get punched in the face. As good as the poly carbonate lenses are, the glass are two steps up. It's like an eye orgasm. I've had Ray Ban, Under Armour and Oakley, but they do not compare to Costa. You get what you pay for.4-18-18Just bought another pair because the others are slap worn out. Still wear working outside, but pretty beat up around inner molding. No low quality workmanship, just wear all the time. I love these glasses. Great anywhere! Just put the new ones on and got a shoulder shiver. Nicccce!
