Can anyone point me in the direction to buy a pair of these? Been looking up best Polarized sunglasses and these come highly recommended in 580glass silver lenses I'm looking for, can't seem to find a stockist in England with much choice or the glass lenses

Used to sell them but they seem to have stopped
But total fishing tackle sell some Costa glasses but most are out of stock
Maybe they need to order them in nowadays as they are quite expensive

Farlows in London had a few styles, the fly shops are more likely to sell them I think

Edit, Glasgow angling are worth a look

I bought 580G costa del mar fantails in America and stupidly left them in the back of a cab in Miami. Trying to find replacements in the uk was a nightmare! My wife spent hours trying to source fantails but no success. She finally found similar Costa Hammerheads ( wraparound, black frame, blue mirror glas 580 lenses but had to buy from America). Arrived ok and look good but I still feel like a prat for leaving the Fantails in the cab. Phoned the cab Co but driver didn't report he'd found them. I'm not surprised - $230 worth of shades as a tip😩. You may have to look at sites in the USA.

Get some shipped over by a mate or the import tax they will charge may sting a bit

Robjents in Hampshire have loads. They don't sell online or communicate via e-Mail though so unless you are local you will need to call. http://www.robjents.co.uk/

Take a look at Oakley's angling specific sunglasses - an exceptionally good alternative to Costas and although subjective, I prefer the Oakley styling.

Have a look at ebay seller foralleyes based in florida they are brilliant to deal with and are open to you making an offer.Todber Manor sell costa but when you can get them a hell of alot cheaper including import duties from the US its well worth doing.I am just about to order some more,im tempted get the cat cay and the half moon frames.
I take it all back,contact Todber Maonor I ordered mine Saturday,delivered this morning fully tracked to my door.They did me a great price on them and the service was superb
Are you sure?
