This is an FYI.

Some of them do not float. We lost a pair(Depthcharge) this past weekend that were dropped in the water and they sank like a rock.

They only float in Texas water.

The Amphibia Depthcharge Sunglasses are designed to fit comfortably no matter how your face is shaped, to stay firmly in place through your most physical activities, and to float in water. On top of all this, the Amphibia Depthcharge Sunglasses are built to last, ensuring that theyll stand up to whatever you can dish out, time and time again. High quality performance sunglasses - the Amphibia Depthcharge Sunglasses will never give you that sinking feeling.

That's from their web page,..something fishy going on there... fish

Bought some years ago when they first started to come out, Flew out of boat off console right by me head. Set down turned around looked and looked for them could not find them. Bought another pair, still have them but they are left in the console on boat for back up pair. The lens started to look bad on them. I'm out on the them in the future have gone back to Costa's.

Bought my wife a pair of Amphibia's a couple of years ago. Decent glasses but haven't tested the floating abilities.
We're going tomorrow to get her a pair of Costa's if they have a frame she likes. I'm tired of her grabbing mine in the spring when we are sight fishing.

I have a pair of depthcharge and they float. Unfortunately, the ones I gave my son did not float. I also have another pair that does not float. So, I guess 1 out of three is not bad.

Since we did not register them. We have no recourse. My original post is strictly an FYI. I guess test them before going to the lake. All products have defects every now and then. If the consumer follows the warranty paper work. I haven't heard of any reputable company not honoring the warranty.

Avoid their process for getting amphibia eyewear in prescription. Mine was a super huge hassle. They dont float well either before and after prescription.
