Location: Appleton WI | I'm looking at purchasing a new pair of sunglasses to be used for fishing. Any recommendations? A lot of guys I talk to say Costa Del Mar but i realize that sponsorships have an influence on that. |

| I wear Randolph Engineering "Concorde" in 61 mm size fitted with prescription polarized, bifocal lenses. If you look at the "Braided Line" thread and scroll down to see two pictures, you can see the teardrop shaped lenses. This is my 2nd pair of "Concorde" frames. I know why pilots liked these now. |

Location: Menasha, WI | Am I the only one this happens to? I buy a pair of $100 sunglasses and I sit on them the first trip out. I buy a pair of $7.99 sunglasses and they last for years.

| I buy $5 pairs of sunglasses, you never know when your friend will ask to see them, crumple them up and throw them over board. |

LMAO. I have 3 pairs of Costas that did not last a year between all 3 pairs, due to not being able to handle the weight of my body on top of them. My 15.00 pair of cheapy polarized bifocals have been around a little over a year now. |

Location: Waukesha Wisconsin | I have not lost an expensive pair in 3 years. Do what I do. I learned this from Rich. Duct tape the glasses to your forehead. It really works. |

Location: Manitowoc, WI | www.habervision.com. I've been using these for running and fishing over the last 5 years and they are great. I had Costa del Mars before and I'd buy the Habervisions before the Costas. |
