Looking to get a new pair of prescription sunglasses for the boat and fishing. Are there any particular Oakley or other brands that people really like. I want a pair that fit pretty tight. Almost all of the wrap around pairs have non adjustable nose pads and I find slip when my face gets sweaty. I hate the feeling they are going to slip off when bending over.

I have been wearing Oakley Flak prescription sunglasses for over 15 years with no issues. My latest pair has progressive lenses and they are great. Never used a different brand so I have nothing to compare them to.
I have a pair of Costa & Wiley X, I think the Wiley X are clearer, and they fit better IMO
Same. Been wearing Oakley Flak progressive prescription for 10 years absolutely love them and had no issues. The important thing to me especially with sport glasses is the fit at the nose and Oakley has great replacement rubber nose pieces. Can't stand glasses that have no nose piece so you end up with a plastic frame resting on your cheeks and nose. Does not work well when you're sweating and they keep sliding down your nose.

Exactly about the sweat, I have a pair of Wiley X and that is what bothers me about them.

Go Oakley's been wearing over 15 years flak or half jacket great replacement program spendy but well worth it
I'm in Oakly "Gascans" . Prescription, ANSI rated, and transition to dark grey. I'm on my second pair, don't slide off when sweating. I actually bought them exclusively for work, but wear them everywhere. I just added a set of Costa's for the boat and fishing, I haven't tried them on the water yet. I did mine through here - https://www.sportrx.com/
Oakley Flak 2.0, nose pads are replaceable, and many options are available from other companies besides Oakley. They also have the Asian fit nose piece if you like your glasses farther away from your face.
Third season with my Costa Blackfin Progressives. Way better than the Moui Jims I had. Have the Green mirrored ones. I really like them.

Costa makes a “Pro” type of a few models (Fantail Pro, Reefton Pro, etc).
The “Pro” have adjustable nose pieces.

You guys using the Oakleys are you using the prescription rx lenses or the Oakley?

I'm using prescription rx wrap arounds with blue mirror lenses. I got a pair for the boat and a pair for driving.
Prescription rx lense for me. The place I posted above send me the "stock" lenses too. They did the same on the Costas too,so I have a nice pair of new factory lenses for both, that I'll never use.
Oakleys with RX lenses from Lens crafters
I get new Oakley flak jackets every two years through insurance. Very comfortable. There are aftermarket places to order replacement lenses with prescription too that are pretty affordable. I wear them all day for work and they are my fishing glasses.
Wiley X has been very good to me.
