Costas for sure. Their customer service is awesome- I had a pair that started self-destructing after a year or two, they fixed 'em for me, no charge, no questions asked.

Wow! Thank you everyone for the kind words. I am overwhelmed with the outpouring of support and recommendations. :) Rubberhead -Looking forward to helping you find the perfect pair of Costa's. I have a huge selection. I try to keep all of the styles in stock and we will figure out which frame/lens color/lens material combination would work best for you and your needs. In addition they have a lifetime guarantee against manufacturer's defect, no other brand offers that. Most offer one or two years, and Costa really stands behind the warranty. Looking forward to meeting you!

I've read a lot of positives about costas. Here's my experience. I bought a pair of tuna alleys 3 seasons ago. The rubber lining that makes up the nose piece and runs under the lenses has slowly come undone( unglued). The rubber above my ears is starting to do the same thing. I bought them from eyes on first too (quality service) they have nothing to do with the actual construction of the glasses. Cheap Taiwanese manufacturing. I'm gong to search myself for new sunglasses as well. I put on a pair on new oakleys at a shop in Hoboken and they felt well constructed.

Did the Oakleys feel comfortable? I tried them on and had to take them off within 30 seconds. They look like they are made to fit a volley ball and not a human head.

They felt nice. The straight sides were nice as apposed to the traditional curve down & behind the ear. I felt like they fit tight but comfortable.....won't fall off into the drink while bending down over the gunwale. I don't wear a lanyard on my shades so I liked the tighter fit. Also.....The tuna alleys are not best fit for me as the curve bends before my ear.

I personally have been wearing Maui Jims sunglasses for twenty years. Never had one problem with them. My eye doctor will not carry any other brand.
I own every shade they make. Dark black lenses for the water and snow. Brown for cloudy days. I have the glasses with the 150 x's bi-focal on the bottom so I can read maps and see my knot tying better. I own six pairs and never had one problem with lenses coming loose, scratches, frames becoming crooked or warped from the hot sun. A great product with a great warranty.

Good luck with finding the pair that makes feel comfortable and happy. That's what it's all about.
