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.

I have the Harpoons myself with the 580P,I bought-em last year. The clarity is insane,blues greens really burst out but as for the fit,it's so so.I dunno maybe my squash is too small for them
Bob, I have a narrow face and got the Maya frames with the blue glass 580 lenses, makes even horrible lawns look like Ireland.
