Costa Del Mar Rincon Sunglasses

Bold, capable, and built for life on the water, the Costa Del Mar Rincon Sunglasses deliver high-performance optics in a larger, modern frame.

Inspired by the iconic California point break, the Rincon features a straight bridge, wrapped lines, and curved temples for a confident, West Coast look that performs as well as it wears.

Equipped with Costa 580® polarized lenses, these sunglasses cut harsh glare, enhance natural colors, and provide exceptional clarity in bright conditions. The 580P polycarbonate lenses are lightweight and impact-resistant, making them a reliable choice for long days on the water or active use.

Durability is built in with a C-Wall® coating that resists scratches while repelling water, oil, and sweat for easy maintenance. The frame itself is constructed from bio-based resin derived from castor plants, offering a strong yet environmentally conscious build.

Designed with a wide fit and oversized profile, the Rincon is ideal for those who prefer more coverage and a roomier feel. Spring hinges add comfort and flexibility, ensuring a secure fit throughout the day.

Q: Why are polarized fishing sunglasses important?
A: Polarized sunglasses cut through surface glare, allowing anglers to see beneath the water for spotting fish, structure, and currents, they can also help protect your eyes from hooks should you make an errant cast. They reduce eye strain and provide better visual clarity in bright conditions — an essential piece of gear for fly fishing and all-day comfort on the water.

Q: What lens colours are best for fishing?
A: Lens colour depends on light and water conditions. Amber, copper, and brown lenses enhance contrast in variable or low light, making them ideal for river or inshore fishing, these are your best all around options. Grey or blue mirror lenses reduce glare and brightness in full sun, perfect for saltwater or open-water fishing.

A: Glass lenses offer superior clarity and scratch resistance, while polycarbonate lenses are lighter and more impact-resistant. Many anglers prefer glass for clarity on the flats or in bright light, while polycarbonate is ideal
for rugged use and long days on the river.

Q: How should I care for my fishing sunglasses?
A: Rinse lenses with fresh water after use, especially near saltwater, and dry them with a soft microfiber cloth. Store your sunglasses in a hard case when not in use to prevent scratches and damage. Avoid wiping dry lenses, as dust or grit can cause micro-abrasions.
