Leupold Sunglasses are damn good for the money. They are available from around $90.00 to about $140.00 right now. Very clear first pair of expensive sunglasses I have bought. I really like them.

Oakley’s have the same safety protection rating.
That being said, Wiley-X are very good glasses for the money.
I’ve owned several pair r dove hunting over the years.

I paid a bit extra to have my last Rx safety glasses tinted and polarized. Driving, boating, fishing, and shooting.

Second pair made this way. The last went from my T shirt pocket, over the side of the boat, to the bottom of the lake. Now I keep them on a silly looking little lanyard.

I went to my cave & found a pair of Smiths & Costas.

My Smiths look like 1990's ski bum shades & not my lens color so haven't worn them. But checked them out again & the lens quality didn't impress. Maybe the newer ones are better?

The Costas, killer lenses IMO. Even though they're not my color, they'll go into rotation. Maybe the dark grey good for a certain time of year or activity?

So many votes for Maui's here. Gotta have a look. Crap! they're a buck or a 150 & more. Even with cautious shopping.

And cheap...

Raybans way back. Then Oakleys.
I have gone the cheap route these days- Magpul.

Glass lens Costa will improve your vision. If you need non polarized, Ray Ban.

Great conversations and advice. I have been researching. More education needed. WHAT COLOR lenses. Mostly for driving but would like them to work on the water too. Thanks guys and gals. (I only accept 2 genders…..sorry.)

All good to great, with the right fit.

Go to Costas website, look at all the different dimensions for width, length, temple, bridge.....


Correct. I'm on the water almost every day. You don't want you shades to hurt you. Costa Brine is the style that fits me.

I prefer brown myself. We wear sunglasses even when it's overcast because of the glare. Blue is a little too dark for me in those conditions.

I buy non-polarized for all day, every day stuff.

The amount of schit you can’t see with polarized lenses is growing every day. If on the water or know that I’m going to be recreating outside all day, I much prefer polarized.

Best sunglasses I ever owned were 1st gen Rayban Predators.

Bought several pair when they first came out 20+ years ago.

Lost my last pair couple years ago.

Since then whatever I find at Costco I like.
