I prefer Costa's. For the guys who are loosing glasses, you can get a laniard for $1.50. Seems like a small price to pay to save $150.00 pair of shades.

There has been more than a few times I've seen things underwater and reacted and got crazy looks from everyone else in the boat. I've also answered the "why are we fishing here" question several time by letting the someone borrow my shades for a few seconds. I have a perscription so all my glasses are expensive. Makes it very painfull to lose them. (1) pair Oakleys on the bottom of Fort but they were pre perscription. (1) pair perscription Bole lost off my face while riding a motorcyle on I-35. Scary.

Okay now for those who wear prescription glasses, what sunglasses do you suggest for those people, Cocoons? I have to get a pair that go over my prescription glasses. (progressive lens) I would prefer a pair not too heavy.

I have good genetic eye vision, so prescriptions are not needed. I pretty much stick with aviators in rose or amber since my eyes are blue. Bright sun-my eyes=migraine (and the doped up water doesn't help

I have astigmatism, far sighted in one eye, near sighted in another, and use progressive lens...to get a sunglass prescription would be WAY over 150 dollars for me. Maybe by now the other eye went far sighted too, that would be better...LOL.

I used to always buy 10-15 dollar sunglasses because they were cheap, then I would always end up losing them, once I bought and expensive pair which are a 100 times better, I keep up with them because they are expensive and I dont want to lose them.
