I have Costa's in glass...awesome to look through but heavier than plastic, supposed to have breath holes but they don't really work..Just got some Dirty Dog's to try..they seem better in that regard

Maui Jims:
a) Rose tint for the o'cast days
b) Dark tint for the sunny ones

Nothing else.

Always been curious on the rose tint lens Ben i got to try a pair and see how they image out in the wilderness, Ben have you tried the HT (high transmission) lens?? Mate let me tell they're are the best lens ive seen thru a Polaroid lens talk about eye conditioner I love them ive also got the neutral grey lens(dark tint) in the Honolulu frames they're truly amazing on a bright sunny day have to be seen to be appreciated how some Polaroid glasses can be chalk & cheese. Seeing is truly believing.

I like the look of those Dirty Dogs.

I have been through the range of most well known surfie glasses and some are way better than others, particularly when it comes to durability of coatings.

I am currently using Tag Heuer and really like them - superb polarisation and very durable.

I use an old pair of Ray Ban with polarized lenses.

Some lovely glasses available but most of the time they're covered in salt spray anyway.

Regards,


Trevor

+1 for oakleys. I use Antix with polarized lens.

They will do prescriptions lenses too. A few friends of mine have had them over the years.
