For what nice prescription sunglasses cost and then losing them. Shady Rays for me.

Any of them besides costas offer some with built in reading lenses in the bottom?
I had a pair of Costa C-mates readers but they at the bottom of the Warrior river just up from Franklins Ferry now

I've really liked my Shady Rays. They were cheap and they will replace them and replace lenses, just have to pay a small "processing fee".

I like Blue Otters. I have multiple pair of costas and only wear them around salt water as the glass lenses don't scratch when I take a rag from the boat to wipe salt spray. For non-glass lens Maui Jim has best clarity but coating scratches easily. Blue Otter is well built and comfortable with SUPERB customer service.

My dry eye syndrome was making it really difficult for me to stay on the lake fishing once the sun got up very high, so I had to find something other than my prescription glasses with a shaded clip on. I found these for $39 and haven't had an eye episode since. The bifocal window is very small, but I like that. It's enough to let me see to tie on a hook, but I don't notice it unless I'm intentionally looking down. They are straight out of China, but so is most everything.

Been Costas for me for the last several years but after reading the posts on here, I’ll probably buy a pair of Shady Rays just to give them a try since the price is pretty cheap.

Really happy with the Crossfire polarized I buy from Amazon. Wore Costa and Maui Jim for years.

Crossfire, to me, is just as good and I don't get sad when a rock from the weedeater chips or scratches a lens.

Been wearing Smith's for 30 years; no reason to change. Great warranty and customer service.

I have Smith now. Parallel II. SUPER light weight. Comes with a 2nd set of lenses better for low light. And a case to carry them with the extra lenses. Way better than the Oakley pair I had before. Better than my Ray-Bans. My best friend ditched Costa for Smith too

Maybe off topic, because I'm not reading all the posts, but I get a kick out of folks who wear sunglasses when it's cloudy. They probably wear masks alone in their vehicle too.

You don't need sunglasses on dark cloudy days when driving. For fishing, maybe so, maybe not.

When you’re cool, the sun shines all the time!

I’m wearing a pair of $5 Yum sunglasses from the Wallyworld fishing dept.

Has nothing to do with style or bright light; the right lens will improve definition cloudy conditions. Learned that from skiing. If it ain't your thing; that's fine.

Skiing? Snow is a whole different situation.
