    affordable sun glasses

    What is the best affordable sun glasses on the market? What is the best color to see in the water with bluebird skies and cloudy skies.

    Hard to beat SolarBats for price. The blue green gradient lens is very good for seeing in water.

    Been using the Fletcher Shryock Renegade pro inexpensive and pretty good lens and fit for my head, which is the most important thing I think. Could have the best lenses but if high noon sun is shining in above our under the lenses its still difficult to do anything

    I'm sticking with my Oakley Radars. Pricey...but worth it in my opinion.

    IMO getting a pair that fits right is just as important as the color of the lens etc... A poor fitting pair of glasses are worthless. Go get fitted, or go try on a few different models to find what fits before ordering online. You may find a cheap pair of polarized glasses fit you well?

    Get you a pair of Shady Rays in the blue/green lens. They are great glasses for not a lot of $. Great warranty.

    I could never buy a pair without trying them on. Most are uncomfortable in some way. Pulling or weight on ears, nose pressure, too close to eyebrows or cheeks. Too many variables to just order a pair. Regardless if they are $30 or $300.

    Depends on your idea of cheap. Strike king and solar bat are great. But before you buy them take a look at steepandcheap.com for sales on Costa, native, Wiley x, and other top name brands. After wearing berkley, strike king, terminator, and booyah sunglasses in between pairs of Costas (lost a few on the water, one got stolen, and another one my friends dog ate) I’ll never go back to a cheap pair. Switching to a cheap pair for a day just trout fishing actually gave me A migraine

    The 2 gradient lenses are both good.

    If You go this route, ShadyRays™ is having a deal 50% off 2 pairs. the code is 'TV50'

    And remember the old proviso 'It is only a "deal" if You need it...'

    I've been turned on to Flying Fisherman Action Angler series.. to be honest, I'm quite impressed with them for the prices.. They also carry a step up called the master angler series.

    Cheap enough I have several pairs in the boat, truck, camping gear.
