Now, I know this gets talked about all the time on here, but I'm finally ready to bite the bullet and get a good pair of sunglasses.

I'm down to either Costa Del Mar or Ocean Waves...and I'm looking for something to sway me either way.

Thanks,

Josh

I have 3 pairs of costa del mars. Love them. Buy them on ebay, you can save 20-30% that way. I got my last pair, brand new for 70 bucks, they are 109 retail.

Todd,

Thanks.....which lenses did you get? I was thinking about the green-mirror-glass, but that was just based on all the talk I've seen on sites like this for the Ocean Waves backwater green.

I got the blue mirror for bright days, yellow for darker days or low light and a grey pait for the car. I still wish I could get an untinted pair of polarized lesnes for low light.

My kids hate them because I look like a Martian and people on here say I look like a movie star, but Ocean Waves Backwater Green are by far the best glasses to see into the water and see follows. They are simply amazing!

I have a low profile Belize set, but I wish I would have gotten wrap arounds.
You can order them easily online and you will have them right away with no hassle.

ditto what Muskyboy said.

One lens for all conditions..best lenses/glasses I ever used and I have used other colors. AS Chuck ALtamore put it as I was posting the same question about glasses before.....backwater green is the best color for seeing old "mossback".
