Top features
Costa Del Mar Fantail is a premium polarized sunglasses option built for serious outdoor use and water sports. The frame features 580P polycarbonate lenses with proprietary Costa polarization technology, delivering excellent glare reduction and color contrast. The Blackout frame with Green Mirror lenses offers a classic, sporty aesthetic suitable for fishing, boating, and driving.
Build & Fit: Durable acetate or nylon frame construction with solid hinges. The 59mm size provides generous coverage for larger faces. Lightweight design suits all-day wear.
Lens Tech: Full UV400 protection blocks 100% UVA/UVB. The mirror coating reduces brightness in bright conditions while maintaining visibility and depth perception. Polycarbonate construction resists scratches better than standard glass.
Who It's For: Anglers, boaters, and outdoor enthusiasts willing to invest in premium optics. Strong reputation among water-sports communities; less suited for budget-conscious everyday wear.
Warranty & Value: Typically 1-year manufacturer warranty. Price point (~$150–180) positions this as mid-to-premium, justified by brand heritage and lens technology but above affordable alternatives like SUNGAIT or Knockaround.
