Costa Hamlin

What more fitting tribute to a man who refined the technique of “bait and switch” billfishing than sunglasses that give anglers the best possible ability to see fish approaching a trolling spread?

Designed in honor of Capt. Ron Hamlin, a revolutionary captain with more than 27,000 billfish to his credit, Costa Del Mar’s Hamlin sunglasses are available with Costa’s 580 lens technology to give anglers unparalleled glare-cutting, fish-spotting performance.

Hand-built, the extra-large fit glasses feature co-molded, Hydrolite frames for light weight, durability, and a comfortable but secure fit.

The shades incorporate many of the elements that make Costa’s other models so popular, including integral stainless-steel hinges that further add to the durability and comfort of the glasses.
Five available frame colors—White, Matte Black, Blackout (with a black logo), Realtree Xtra Camo, and Tortoise let anglers customize their sunglasses to their unique styles.

In addition to the frames, the company’s highest performance and durability lenses, 580 Glass, are offered in five colors, each perfect for a different fishing situation. Green Mirror, Blue Mirror, Silver Mirror, Gray, and Copper are all available in the 580 Glass lenses, each color perfect for a different fishing situation. The Copper lenses amplify color and contrast while knocking down glare, perfect for sight-fishing, driving, and all-around on-the-water activities.

Blue Mirror knocks down harsh light offshore while maintaining superior contrast and color, perfect for blue water conditions, and the other three lenses lie in between, letting anglers make the perfect choice for any situation from the flats to the deep sea.

Lighter 580 P and 400 series lenses are also available in the Hamlins in a variety of colors as well.

All of Costa Del Mar’s lenses feature 100% UV light blockage to protect anglers’ eyes for years to come and 100% polarization to kill glare and reduce eye strain in the short term.

Like all Costas, each pair of Hamlins comes with a lifetime warranty and a hard case to reduce anglers’ chances of making a claim on that warranty. You can learn more about Hamlins and the company’s entire line of sunglasses and related products at www.costadelmar.com.
