The green mirror are incredible! I wear the Harpoon style and they fit like they were custom made for my face. I think it is real important to go to a store that carries all the styles and find the ones that fit your face. I put mine on and forget all about them being on. I have had some glasses over time that a had to constantly fiddle with them and it get agravating. If you are anywhere close to Tyler go by Ragsdale & Martin Optical and talk to Mike Martin Jr. and he will hook you up with what is best for you. http://www.ragsdalemartin.com/ I am not associated with them in any way, but that's where I buy my shades and prescription glasses. I got my very first set of glasses from them in 1972.

My eye doc said Maui Jim's have the best polarization. That's what I bought--love 'em.

Fouzman, they green glass(mirrored) over the amber or copper? I thought the non-mirror would be a little better. I have a copper and blue mirror lens now, can you tell a big difference?

I wear Kaenon Klays everday and the Kaenon Hard Kores in the boat. Why these glasses have not blown up in this part of the country I am clueless. The clarity is second to none and the durability is great. they just feel right and they have a lot of styles to choose from. I like the fact that after a lot of hard use the frames are still tight and no worn out nose pieces or ear pieces. Also like the fact that there are no metal hingles exposes on the frames that can suck when you put them on in the summer. I have even worn the Klays while fighting grass fires under my helmet shield and they still look new.

Costas are the way to go. The 580 lenses are second to none and the lifetime warranty with no questions asked is awesome. They have been my sponsor for 6 yrs now and are fantastic peeps!

Really need to try them all like Bsouth said. I had some costas with 580 and the lens were great but the frames gave me s headache. I switched to Oakley and really like them.

I just ordered my 3rd pair of polarized Oakley flak jacket XLJs in black iridium (my eyes are wearing out faster than the glasses!). I was blown away the first time I put them on by how clear and crisp everything was over the entire field of view. Well I guess wearing Oakley's is one thing I can say I have in common with KVD!

I wear Oakley flak jacket XLJ's in black iridium for driving. I have a pair of amber Costa fathom 400's that I fish with. Since I haven't upgraded my Costas, I am now wearing my Oakleys for both. These are the most comfortable pair of sunglasses I've ever owned.
