Costa Del Mar

When the sun is out in full force, you've gotta wear shades. A pair of sunglasses look great for sure, but fashion isn't the only reason people wear them. They also protect your eyes against the harmful UV rays of the sun. That's important in any season and no matter where you live or travel. Sunglasses also help protect the eyes from blue light—those electromagnetic energy waves found in the solar spectrum. Sunglasses also reduce glare while driving which could be a car, boat, or motorcycle. And, yes, they look pretty cool too.

People like Costa Del Mar sunglasses for their sporty look and feel. In fact, they are one of the more popular brands in sports sunglasses. Costa Del Mar translates to "coast of the sea" in Spanish, and people use them on the beach, in their boats, and while surfing the waves. Founded in 1983, Costa Del Mar offers styles of sunglasses for men, women as well as unisex. Abt carries Costa del Mar sunglasses in colors of black, ivory, rose gold, and tortoise.

The Cheeca Polarized Sunglasses are a popular choice. This pair in a matte shadow tortoise frame cost less than $200 and offer 100% UV protection so they're perfect for the beach. They are lightweight and stylish plus the Polycarbonate and Trivex materials used to make the lenses means they are very durable. C-Wall® makes them scratch-resistant as well.

For another option at under $200, we recommend the Ballast Blue Mirror Polarized Sunglasses which feature a shiny black frame that is incredibly light at 16 grams. Nylon is the best frame material for people who are active. This pair is durable and impact-resistant to thanks to TR90 nylon frames and 580P Polycarbonate (+Trivex In RX) in the lenses. Wear them while you play a game of beach volleyball and you'll barely notice them.
