Maui Jim, Rose colored lenses. You're going to beat your head against a LARGE rock for not having had polarized sooner.

Can you provide an amazon link for them? I seem to find it helpful to be lead like a sheep on some things.:;:huh

Costa 580G lenses with green mirror amber base lens. Unparalleled scratch resistance is a real bonus.

They all fit different and the lenses are all different as well. Go to a dealer and try several pairs on, take them outside on a sunny day and then shop online for a deal.

Just make sure you go with a quality brand.

I have these, too, I've owned 3 pairs of them if you include the set of amber/blues I had too. Maui's are better optically.

Try on a model with the high transmission (HT) lens (not so dark) from Maui Jim's.

15 years of MJ's for this guy. The best IMO.

Costa have the saltwater guys convinced though... I see them wearing Costas predominantly.

P.S. Very tough to find a deal with MJs. So I order from them direct. Figure if I have trouble it's best that way - but never had a warranty issue.

You can get glass or poly. Prescription poly Mauis are better than prescription glass Costas.

Sawyer,
Or you could have one ear slightly lower than the other and not be able to wear anything that won't snug against a hat. So Oakleys for me.

Do you sorta look like "sloth" from the Goonies?

I have a little cauliflower ear on one side. Oakleys are the only glasses that work for me as well.

Gotcha.

try the Maui Jim Ho'okipa. I have those in HT with built in readers (they come without too). They are super light and straight bow Oakley style and I think they might work. I sometimes put them up on cap after sunscreen slather.
