Finally breaking down and buying some new sunglasses. I know this has been discussed in the past, but sense I was just fine with my $7.00 Shakespeare, didn't pay attention. I want to be as cool as the rest this time, so Costas, Smith, Oakley ? What lenses color also?
What say you?

P.S. I have a small head!

Costas with polarized 580s with your preference for glass vs plastic. Dozens of frame choices. Best warranty available. The Texas sun makes me buy blue mirror. People will think you are a Tuna boat captain.

I just bought a pair of Fantail Costas with 580G green lenses & love em.... Shop eBay for really nice deals...
I also bought a pair of STRIKE KING S11 Optics Black EUFAULA Amber Brown POLARIZED Lens Sunglasses for 24.99 off eBay & these are absolutely awesome for the price!! Best deal out there in my opinion!

I like blue-colored lenses.

I also have a small head, so finding some glasses that fit good is more important than the brand. I like Oakleys because they look cool but they don't make any glasses that aren't too big for my head. I've had good luck with Maui Jims.

I have three pair Costas with blue 580G lenses. In my opinion these are the glasses that's best for me. I won't own anything else even though they're expensive.

I'm a fan of Oakley's. I'm sure Costas are great too, but have never tried them. Coastas seem to be the latest fad.

Whatever brand you pick make sure you get white frames so you fit in at the boat ramp.

These float
Also available with green, blue mirror, and brown tinted lenses

This style usually suits a small head

duckett actually makes some really good sunglasses, I have a pair they work better than any costas or oakleys I've ever used.
