yes!! I got a pair of Man O' Wars on closeout for 89.00 (retail 139.00) and I love em! They have amber lenses and they help so much with seeing fish and eye strain.

I just broke down and bought a pair, and I wish I would have done it sooner.

Be ready cause once u get a pair you wont wear any other brand. I have forgotten mine and had to wear cheaper ones for the day and i will tell thats a mistake!

Lightest sunglasses I've ever worn (Ballast model).. Outstanding warranty, they replaced a broken pair (my fault) for $40..

Yup. They're the real deal. You may not really notice the difference until you wear them a while, then put on a pair of cheapos-- it may hurt your eyes.

Without a doubt they are worth the investment. Wouldn't buy anything else.

Only sunglasses I'll buy mine are prescription progressive lenses spent big dollars on them worth every penny.

I tried them on at bass pro, loved the man o war 580 g with the green tint
Bass pro wanted 239
eBay delivered them with overnight shipping for 178!!!
I went to Los barrilles mexico, tuna and marlin fishing the next morning with both the costas and my old oakleys... I never looked through the oakleys once. These costas are so clear it's amazing. I said these would be my fishing glasses only, but honestly I wear them 99% of the time now. Go get some!
