    SUNGLASSES

    I have a pair of costas that are blue glass. I love them to death. I had a buddy tell me the other day that he had a pair of green and that they do good also. So my question is- Do any of ya'll have multiple pair of glasses? If so how do the other colors compare to the blue? Is having multiple pair worth the investment? I appreciate any comments.

    I personally have 4 pairs of costa's the lense color seems to make a bigger difference to me than the mirror color I have one pair of green mirrors and one pair of blue mirrors that I can't tell the difference.The biggest difference to me is the color of the tint when looking through them not the color of the mirror.

    It just depends on the water color and how bright it is out. Green, amber or rose colored can be really nice on some days, but I think blue is the best all around.

    I LIKE DIFFERNET COLORS ON CERTAIN CONDITIONS AS WELL

    I AM ALSO ADDICTED TO MAUI JIMS......

    ON LOW CLOUDY DARK DAYS......THE YELLOW TINTS ARE UNREAL....IT'S LIKE TURNING ON A LIGHT! ...BUT , THERE IS A LOSS OF "COLOR" AS FAR AS SEEING "FISH COLORS" DART BY!

    i have two pairs of costa's...I cant tell a difference in the black regular mirror and the blue ones. I would deff. think its the tint color. Maybe i should experiment with them more.

    I've got a pair of green mirror/amber lense and they work good on overcast days with good clarity into water. Also blue/mirror smoke wave killers for bright sunny conditions, both made by Costa and I fell they are well worth the $$. So yes I it does make a differance to me. hope this helps some, never tried maui's for my on but have'nt heard anything bad.

    A good combination from Costa for partly overcast or cloudy days is a amber lens with the green mirror. Awesome lens for sure.

    I did find out yesterday that the Wave580 from Costa will be available with Blue Mirror soon and will also be offered in prescription. Probably about 3 months away. I'm with BOX, I'm addicted to the Maui Jim's, specifically the Maui Rose. I mean who would not want to view this wonderful world we are visiting looking through "rose colored glasses"

    I wear oceanwaves. I have an amber/green for inshore. It is supposed to help you make out bottom features better. Also have a grey/blue for offshore. Supposed to penetrate the water better... I have heard those costa 580s are supposed to be amazing though.
