A replacement for Costa’s? Say it ain’t so!

[Preytorien]

I’ve been a diehard Costa fan for the past many years, but for a gift late last year I received the Prizm Shallow Water Fishing Lenses for my normally-cycling-specific Oakley M2’s. I had my first large outing today and I have to say the optics are daggum impressive, dare I say better than my Costa’s. I can’t believe I wrote that. But man they’re good. I would suggest them for a first time buyer.

 

What do you think? Am I sacreligious?

The prism lenses are incredible.  Tungsten is my favorite for fishing.

Which lenses are in your Costa's?

Durability was always the issue I had with Oakley's. I've owned several pairs since I can get good deals on them because of my job. Never had a pair make it to it's second birthday. I'm not the easiest on them, but not throwing them around and stepping on them or anything either. I've had a lot of issues with finishes on the frames coming off too. Been a few years since I've tried a pair though, maybe they've worked those issues out.

Last summer a woman in Oakley store told me they are discontinuing the Prizm Shallow Water.
