| | I have heard a lot about Costa del mar sunglasses and was wondering if anyone had a frame that they would recomend. I was also wondering if it would be worth it to spend the extra money and get the 580's? |

| | Troutman2, Yes on the 580's, I wear the Fathom style in the amber lens. For the extra $$ they are definitely worth it. |

| | I have a big head and therefore, big face as well. If you are similar, I'd highly recommend the Man-0-War frames. The black plastic sun shade pieces on the side are removable for when you aren't fishing. They are the best glasses I've ever owned. Better than Oakly, SPY, Ray Ban, or Maui Jim... (Yes i have a sun glass addiction). As far as the lenses go, spend the extra cash. They'll last forever and you won't regret it. |

| The only glasses I had in the 580s were my first pair of Turbines. I now have Turbine with blue mirror 400s, and Hammerheads with grey 400s. The only real difference I could tell was in the weight of the glasses in general. I don't spend enough time in skinny or blue water to notice the difference in clarity. My 400s perform very well for me, and are still very durable! I got the Turbines and Hammerheads on a clearance sale which is why I went with the 400s. If you have the cash, get the 580s.

| I have a pair of rencon 400's with the Green mirrror and a pair of the Switchfoot 580's Green Mirror. 580's ARE WORTH IT. Big difference

| Look at the fa 11 fathoms in amber, thats what I have and I love them. If you want nicer lens go with the 580's.
