Change the position of the lightweight Grilamid frame ever so slightly, and the symphonic notes of a topless European sports car may whisper forth from the crystal-clear, distortion-free Techlite TLT glass lenses. Finally, with the non-slip Megol arm pads and stainless steel spring hinges pressed to your face, listen for the whistling whine of a turbo-charged exotic to usher forth dang, what a ride, eh'

fantastic

I fish a lot. Sometimes all day long. Whether I'm guiding or fishing, these are some of the best glasses I've owned. Extremely comfortable, good in many light conditions, from cloudy to full sun. Polarizing is also top notch. Many times I see fish I never would have seen without them. Buy these if you have the money. You won't regret it. BTW, they are also very stylish and I wear then everywhere, not just fishing.
