I need to upgrade my crappy sunglasses now that we are back into
boating.
The last nice pair I had ended up in Lake Erie 2 years ago while on a
cruise
on our friends Lyman.

Who makes a decent pair of polarized sunglasses with glass lenses? I
think
my last pair was a Sunglass Hut proprietary brand......no longer
available.

My eyes are pretty sensitive to sunlight. Any suggestions?

Maui Jim.

Go to sunglass hut, pick out your style, then buy 'em on ebay.

Too damned expensive retail.


Sheesh. Two dozen posts of crap, and only jps and I answered Jim's
question.

BTW--I like Costa Del Mar more than Maui Jim's.




Thanks for the suggestions. I do have a Sunglass Hut near me and plan to
take a look at their collection. Gander Mountain carries the Costa Del Mar
brand and I will stop there tomorrow.

Nice tip jps.....I will do that after I find the pair that works for me.

Tried both the Maui Jim and Costa Del Mar brands and liked the MJ's better
(Big Island style).

$320 with sales tax at Sunglass Hut.

Purchased them today on Ebay for $220 including shipping and insurance.
Brand new with registration and case.

You can't beat Ebay!

Got them the other day and finally got a chance to use them today (been at
home the last couple of days).

Wow. They fit great and the view is crisp and clear through them. I drove
into the sun with them on today (mid morning) and did the trick.

Thanks for all the great advice. ;-)

Sheesh, you're grumpy today. Blizzard got you down?

I don't open up tinyurl.com links. Why didn't you just mention the brand
name in the post?

Costa Del Mar. After owning two pair, I wouldn't buy anything else. Get
the mirrored amber lens.

Up here, some boaters use field glasses in their normally frustrated
attempts to catch even the faintest glimmer of sunlight. I have been
told the sun is round, and sort of a bright white/orange/yellow color.
Thank heaven for our perpetual cloud cover, it doesn't sound like that
mythical ball of fire in the sky would be much to look at even if one
had an opportunity to do so.

(There are some important reasons that the Pacific NW is not a hotbed
of celestial navigation and/or astronomy)
