Though they may seem similar at first glance, there are significant differences between men's and women's sunglasses. Colors, styles and shapes are huge factors when considering a frame style. The challenge for women in choosing a frame is finding a style that is not only flattering to her features, but also one that is comfortable.
Men's sunglasses are marked by straight lines, neutral colors, and muted finishes. While wider bridges and longer frame arms are important in a men's frame, there are more options to consider when choosing sunglasses - weight, function, lens properties, and comfort are at the top of the list. We've assembled a collection of frames that are not only comfortable and classy, but are also appropriate for all kinds of use.
Originally developed for boaters and fishermen who needed to reduce glare coming from the surface of the water, polarized lenses have come to the forefront of sunglass lens technology. It's not just outdoor enthusiasts who can enjoy the benefits of a polarized lens. Glare from a car hood or from a long, flat road can be avoided with the use of polarized lenses.
A brand is really only as good as its reputation. With that in mind, we've chosen sunglasses from the best designer brands on the market. While looking your best is important, it's also important to remember that quality sunglasses will offer your eyes (and your eyesight) a significant level of protection far and above that of cheap, mass-produced sunglasses.
For more than 30 years, one brand has been the standard for outdoor eyewear - Costa del Mar. Founded by a group of hardcore fishermen in 1983, Costa set out to solve the problem of outdoor adventures being more durable than sport sunglasses! After development and design, the folks at Costa del Mar set out to produce the kind of eyewear that they would wear themselves.

Needed sunglasses and found this store on the internet. It's a great store, the minute we walked in the young man working there said hello and asked if he could help. I told him I was looking for a pair of polarized. I have a small face and he immediately new a couple brands that worked for me. I'd highly recommend this store. Clean, wonder selection of sunglasses, and most of all an extremely knowledgeable sales associate.
