Sunglasses for guys with really big heads

[zimmy]

sierratradingpost.com has a bunch of costas on sale. I got a nice pair with glass lenses for about $80 ( less than 1/2 price). Some with polycarb lenses were in the $40-50 range.

And a note for anyone looking to buy there, you can nearly always get 30% off of the STP price with a coupon. Sign up for the deal flyer...

Frequently they'll do 30% + free shipping and every some times 35% and free ship.

Thanks for the tip Zimmy, I bought a pair at the best price I saw.

Jim, what pair did you settle on?

I was looking at the Pescador model, but they're bifocal. ??? I don't wear prescription glasses and really don't want anything that's going to impair my vision in the long run. Am I stoopid for being concerned about that?

Believe it or not, I've used "BluBlockers" for years, no complaints here (Viper body style). They cut through the water pretty good, and cost me $5 @CVS. I don't need to make a fashion statement anymore, so they fit their purpose. However, I can' find them at that cost anymore...online they're much more costly now (close to these Costa Del Mars)...

Hey Bloo -

Went with Hammerheads by Costa Del Mar. Clarity is amazing, fit is better than anything I've tried, but still a bit of a squeeze. Only carnival novelty sunglasses would fit me comfortably, I think. I really have a freak-head, and I'm bald to boot...As my wife says, when I take my hat off at th ebeach, the tides change.

Dude - you must have a big squash - the Hammerheads fit perfectly for me
