Design
Each style of the Costa camo sunglasses provide fit and function you’ll come to appreciate. With a superior wrap-around design to eliminate glare, proprietary anti-fog vents, rugged integral hinges, co-molded hydrolite nosepieces, sleek styling in a hardcore frame and nearly indestructible nylon construction, the Costa camo design meets the needs of the discerning sportsman.
Clarity
Costa camo styles are available in Costa’s patented 580 lens technology. Allowing maximum light transmission and enhanced depth perception, the 580 lenses allow you to see more clearly in the low light of early morning or late afternoon. The polarized 580 lenses also block yellow light, creating razor-sharp color enhancement and superior visual acuity.
Whether to fit your outdoor activity or just for aesthetics, you can select from an array of lens colors. Chose from Costa’s new specialty sunrise option, as well as gray, copper, amber, blue mirror, green mirror and silver mirror.
Safety
Lightweight and impact resistant the 580P polycarbonate lens is the perfect solution for the shooting or angling enthusiast. Passing ANSI Z80.3 and ANSI Z87.1 high impact/velocity testing makes the lenses ideal for protecting your eyes from a stray hook or ricochet.
Resilient
A proprietary process of coating the 580P lens results in protective molecules covering the lens surface with what Costa named its – C-WALL. This C-WALL provides the 580P with unmatched durability and scratch resistance. Able to repel water, sweat and other liquids; the C-WALL helps prevent smudges from fingertips, oil and other chemicals from sticking to the surface of the lens, making cleaning easier.
Style
Available in the popular Fantail, Blackfin, Double Haul and Zane (pictured) styles, the Costa camo glasses have obvious class. The Realtree AP camo features lifelike overlapping limbs and hazy background elements for a stunning 3D effect. Mixing pine and hardwoods the Realtree AP camo can coordinate with your hunting clothes or favorite casual dress. A family night or Saturday shoot, these stylish shades can either make you blend in or stand out.
