Summer is not quite complete without a great pair of shades. As the sun finally sets on the season next month, you still have time to buy yourself a unique, innovative and stylish pair of sunglasses that aren’t Ray Bans like every other average joe wear! Costa’s Spearo sunglasses are made for people that enjoy the outdoors and offers 100% UV protection built around strong anti-corrosive frames that you will love!

Named after spear fishers — the silent hunters of the sea – Costa, is hunting consumers who are fed up with sunglasses that are not durable or ready for what adventure you throw at them. In fact, their custom-made lens treatments and state-of-the-art lens manufacturing processes mean Costas can stand up salt water or fresh water and can be used for golf, driving, and water skiing just to name a few.

In fact, the frame of their Spearo sunglasses are built from a robust bio-resin Polycarbonate and Trivex blend, while their superior Lightwave glass, too, (available in different polarized finishes) is not only thinner and lighter than conventional lenses, they feature encapsulated mirrors between the layers of glass that offer supreme clarity we just haven’t seen before in a pair of shades, it truly is remarkable. All of this is protected by their patented C-wall molecular bond coating that offers impressive scratch resistance.

Also, of note are some of those added design elements that other manufacturers often forget to include like – sport vented nose pads, nonslip temple tips, an integral hinge, and CAM system for added comfort and durability. We are also a big fan of the metal icon accents on the side and the included carrying case and cleaning cloth backed by a lifetime warranty, yes you read that right!

The Spearo have been our go to shades this Summer and we have truly put them through the ringer when it comes to endurance. We have used them while hiking, fishing, jet skiing and even golfing and they have taken a few tumbles now and then and look as good as the day we got them. For someone like me, who drops their sunglasses daily through sheer clumsiness, it is reassuring to know that I won’t be forking out hundreds of more dollars for a replacement pair next season.

Lastly, it is worth mentioning Costa’s sustainability efforts as they partner with different organizations to minimize their own impact on the environment and help raise awareness and build a better future for the coming generations. This includes their work with OCEARCH an organization created to protect the ocean’s sharks and #OneCoast, an initiative to bring relief to those people by the coast affected by natural disasters.

Costa have a winner on their hands with their Spearo sunglasses but more importantly are winning at giving back to their community and protecting the environment. In our books, for these reasons alone, they are worth the investment if you want a quality product and want to feel good doing it.
