Costas for me. 580G lenses.

 

Tried on a lot of high-end glasses

before deciding on Costas. Haven't

regretted it at all.

The best bang for your buck fishing sunglasses are the Wiley X px-70s. You can find them for 75 bucks if you shop around. With the Maui Jims and Costas what your paying for is an extra layer of polarization and glass lenses. I don't care for glass, and find the polycarbonate on the Wiley X very durable and scratch resistant. Plus they are comfortable. If you want one pair and not multiple lens colors to cover all situations, get a smoke gray lens as found on the px70s

wiley x echo polarized , removable insert keeps the light out from behind and the side.   mine are awesome.   under $90 including freight.  try to find local so you can try them on. see how they fit and feel. 

 

my 2 cents

 

 

These look pretty awesome.

 

 

 

Thanks everyone for your replies!  I will look at them all and figure out what I wanna do from there.

costas i use the carbinas . i have a friend who owes a tackle shop. so i pay 175.00 instead of the 250 ( glass version, not the plastic lenes)

worth every penny a $250

Polycarbonate lenses have a tendency to scratch and break relatively easy. I prefer anything glass. My rayban predators work great for me.

I am extremely happy with my Strike King S11's.  I now own 4 pairs of them.  On my last fishing trip I was sight fishing with a friend who was wearing Costa's and I could see just as good as him.  I even spotted several fish throughout the day which he missed with his glasses.

 

Not saying they are better ... just saying they are good enough for me and you can't beat the price!

The great majority of Maui Jim lenses are poly - not glass.
