Costa offers Rx. sunglasses, but I can't find where they make a cocoon style frame to fit over regular Rx. glasses.
...Politicians aren't the "Oldest Profession", but the results are still the same!!! |

I know BPS has them, and I bet your local fishing stores have them. Shop local when possible!! |

Easy - I got Costa no line bifocals from Jackson Davenport on King St. Pretty reasonable price too. They are great!

I don't don't believe they do. I just bought a second pair Friday, brine, so far I like them but not tested on water yet.
Also have frigate's I love them. They usually block wind, etc. Even going about 55 on the water.
I wear contacts and both pairs are regular costas. That could be another option for ya. |

| Marshman what you consider a reasonable price I may not! I'm pretty cheap! If I can ask, what did you get them for? ionocswing, never had contacts and don't know if I could stand putting something in my eye! Thanks guys, think I'll just go with the Cacoons unless the prescription Costas don't cost, an arm and a leg. |

They are around $400 for perscription Costa's. Be sure they are KB lenses or factory Costa lenses. Some stores sell the Costa frames with generic lenses. I have had mine for 6 years with one new set of lenses ($200). Need to step up to the 580's and new frames...but keep putting it off.

Definitly think about contacts. They are so much better than glasses
There is no greater fan of fly fishing than the mud minnow. |

Easy - I got Triple Tail frames, green mirror 580 lenses and no-line bifocals for $378 form JD on King. My last pair of Ray Bans were $450 so thats why I thought it was reasonable. Took a couple weeks to get them because they actually get them from Costa - they don't grind lenses on site.
