Costa sunglasses are assembled by hand in Florida from the highest quality materials. All Costa sunglasses are
100% polarized and provide 100% UV A/B/C protection. Costa's are available in three levels of clarity: costa 580G™ (LightWAVE
Glass), COSTA 400G™ (LightWAVE Glass) and COSTA 400P™ (CR-39® and Polycarbonate).
The best lenses out there.
Only one thing should come between your eyes and adventures: the best lenses. Ours
deliver amazing color, contrast and clarity, so you can see your world purely. Here's what we use to make them.
Glass: the most optically correct
lens material offering the purest vision. Our LightWAVETM glass lenses are 20% thinner and 22% lighter, and still
exceed federal standards for impact resistance. Available in 580G and 400G.
CR-39®: exceptional resolution
in the most optically correct, lightweight and scratch-resistant plastic lens material out there. Available in 400P.
Polycarbonate: Just like Costa
580G glass lenses, our Costa 580P polycarbonate lenses block yellow light, boost red and green light. They are the clearest
lenses on the planet.
LIGHTWEIGHT
- The reason people love polycarbonate lenses in their sunglasses is first and foremost because they're lightweight. With
580P, they can now get Costa 580 clarity in a pair of sunglasses that's so lightweight they might forget they're even on.
IMPACT RESISTANT
- We know the type of people that wear Costas and we know the type of things they spend their time doing. Costa 580P lenses
have been tested to meet or exceed the rigorous impact standards set forth by the American National Standards Institute, including
ANSI Z80.3 and ANSI Z87.1.
DURABLE
- For the 580P lens we developed a proprietary coating called C-WALL™. The C-WALL™ coating is a molecular bonding
process with an oleophobic, hydrophobic hard coating that repels water, oil, dust and scratches. Our customers work hard and
play hard, and 580P is ready.
Costa and Kenny Chesney have partnered to design his first line of signature sunglasses. Proceeds generated
from the sale of the Costa Kenny Chesney Limited Edition Sunglasses will benefit the Coastal Conservation Association,
a shared cause for both Chesney and Costa. The five Costa Kenny Chesney Limited Edition Sunglasses feature Kenny’s
signature and unique hand drawn artwork etched onto each frame style, illustrating some of his favorite song lyrics and
past tours.
Yellow light is the enemy, on the water and on land. Costa 580 lenses use patented technology to cut down on
the yellow light, allowing the eye to see more red, blue and green. Simply put, they're the most advanced glare-beating polarized
sun lenses on the planet, and they'll change the way you see, period. Performance is in the details, and here are the goods
on 580:
the yellow light near 580 nanometers is particularly difficult for the eye to process - so we block it
they offer sharper contrast, better definition and enhanced colors in any environment
backed by U.S. Patents 6,334,680 and 6,604,824, so the other guys don't have it and can't touch it
available in gray, copper, blue mirror, green mirror and silver mirror

Lifetime Warranty
We warranty our sunglasses against manufacturing defects for the lifetime of the product...not for a year,
but a lifetime.
Since eventual wear and tear can be expected, reasonable repair charges will be levied if repairs are necessary
as a result of normal wear, scratched lenses, broken hinges, accidental damage, misuse or any other problems not determined
to be a manufacturing defect. Costa Del Mar will repair or replace, at our option, any product determined by Costa Del Mar
to be a manufacturer's defect. A processing fee of $11.95 (plus sales tax in CO, DE, FL, MI, NJ, RI, SC, TX) will be charged
for each warranty claim processed. We do not accept checks.
