Costa Del Mar Fathom 580 Sunglasses

 (9 customer reviews)

I own two pairs of these glasses and have had multiple issues with rubber on the frames melting off. I have returned the fathoms multiple time to have the frames fixed. during the long process i bought a second pair for my job-regret). Great lenses, but Costa needs to realize rubber will deteriorate extermly fast. This is the explanation I was given from Costa Del Mar as to why my frames keep breaking down.

i'm sorry to hear about your frames. We do have styles without the hydrolite material, so there are other options. If they tend to disintegrate quickly, it may be because of the acidity (PH) level in your sweat. That, combined with sunscreen, bug spray, etc., and it can wear quickly. Yet, on some people with lower levels of acidity, it may not wear for a very long time. -Email From Costa Del Mar Rep

The only thing I would recommend are holes at the end of the frames to attach neck laces like the Jubol Explorer glasses, since most people would put laces on so they do not fall off or to let them temporarily hang when they are off. The ear piece are hard to put on laces that are tubes and both the loops and the tubes eventually wear and fall off because of...Read more

My husband kept mentioning that he wanted a pair of Costas and after reading many many reviews and researching them I finally bought these for my husband for fathers day. I had a hard time spending this much money on sunglasses! We love boating and he loves to fish, so we spend alot of time on the water. These things are amazing on the water. Now.... I am trying to refrain from ordering myself a pair but just may have to give in! We will definatley own more in the future..maybe the near future. :)
