i have the green mirror 580 glass lenses. they are based on the amber lens. fathom frames. they are wonderful! no headaches from eye fatigue with these even in bright sunlight. they were pricey, at bass pro shops... but worth it to me. +1 I have the same ones with blue lenses!! They work fine for me

look at the permits...they have rubber a hydrolite lining from temple to temple that keeps light out for sight fishing, but also have breathable vents... Ill call them "gills" to let the warm air out and they wont fog
badace!

I have/had at least 15 pairs of Costa's over the past 10 years. The Copper is the best all around lense I've found. Light enough to sight fish, dark enough for crappie fishing in the summer when the glare is really brutal. If they fit you right, you can't go wrong with the Frigate frame. I wear Tortoise Frame/580 Amber/no mirror 90% of the time. Great for year round wear. Lack of mirror and good low light lense makes them great for duck hunting, the removable side shields are perfect for sight fishing, and when you take the side shields off they are more of a fashion frame. So you can go out on the town you won't look like "Johnny Fishing Guy" with the green or blue mirror lenses. Saw a guy at a funeral last year wearing Green Mirror with a black suit. He looked like a Blow Fly. Frigates

i'm just not willing to risk losing a pair of 240 glasses. I'll stick with my Strike King glasses. If i lose them or break them, i'm only out 20 bucks
