Excellent video.
Thanks for doing all the hard work! Nicely done, excellent presented, and very objective evaluation.
Thank Dennis, I easily put +100 hours of work into the evaluation. It was so hard to narrow it down to just 5. Tight lines!
This was a lot of work, much thanks!
You're welcome! I'm glad you found it useful.😎😎😎
Great video thanks for the work
You bet. 😎🐟
All sunglasses are absolutely great!! Even the new replacement lenses like revant are amazing! You just need to choose the right lense tint for the type of fishing you do!
Polarization and UV protection are a must. You're exactly right about the lens color. Tight lines!
Really helpful thank you. can I ask a question If the info was provided I seem to have missed it. Which len color was in top choice 1 &2 ?
For the Guide's Choice - Glass Lens Bronze
For Local Kines - Bronze
For me the Bronze and Copper lenses provide the best contrast without being to dark. Most of my fishing is early and later in the day when the sun is at a lower level. Meaning lots of glare off the water.
Great video
Thanks, I've got a new batch of sunglasses that I'll be taking out onto the water in a couple weeks.
Thanks for taking time to break all that down, just can’t bring myself to spend that kind of money on sunglasses
I appreciate the note. Tight lines 🐟🐟🐟
Got some rap around polarized amber lens ones from Walmart a couple of years ago ($15)...still use them. They work just fine.
Just having polarization makes a big difference. Tight Lines! 🐟🎣
@@GuideRecommended Yup. Wouldn't go fishing without them. Always a good thing to have a second pair as back up.
You forgot the Walmart fishing glasses for 18 dollars are amazing made polarized.
I’ve Oakley costa Del Mar mai Jim’s still one to one performance
Polarization makes all the difference for sure. Tight Lines and thanks for the comment! 🎣🐟
Anything on the waterland co glasses?
😎 Sorry, I haven't heard about the Waterland's before.
Anything on the cheaper brands under 50.00 like LL bean Orvis ,flying fisherman
I tried some Fishoholics last year - ua-cam.com/video/lM1lf0H0Jhw/v-deo.htmlsi=tHDuqwJNY-uegHI6
you should've reviewed both solarbats & waterland.
Those are a couple names I haven't heard of. I'll look into them. Tight lines 🎣🐟
If you cannot tell the difference between Vuarnet, Costa, Smith, Revo, etc and Walmart cheapos then don’t have the best vision.
Cheers
Absolutely, I think you're right. That's why I scored each of the sunglasses 😎. Thanks
Wish you would have done at least one pair of pelagic glasses!!!
Great suggestion 👍😎
I see you wear glasses. please do the same test for fit over sunglasses. I wear glasses and cant see without them and would like to see your results for fit over sunglasses.
Great suggestion! For a long time I used Cocoons, but they scratched up pretty easily and didn't fit over my glasses well. I know it costs more, but I get prescription sunglasses. (only one thing on my face to fall in the water) Tight lines!!
Have you tried the Ray-Ban chromance?
😎 I've requested a set of Ray Bans with Chromance, but never heard anything back from Ray Ban.
Too bad these tests don't tell you how these glasses are going to hold up under hard use!
Thanks for the comment. When you say hard use what are you thinking? I'd like to understand so maybe I could create a test or evaluate the sunglasses that way. 😎
I still have Maui Jims from 1996 that still work great. Glass lenses are pretty durable. These glasses have been through hell and back pretty much, even lost at one point. I recently used them to pressure wash for about 4 hours .
One of the arms is missing a little piece of plastic but the inside of it is a steel flexible metal rod. Still fit great.
The pair I had you could bend the arms to fit your head better if needed.
If you can find some old stock Maui Jims with the thicker glass (made in japan) they hold up great. The new Jims look great too. Try a look at the newer "AMBERJACK" by Maui Jim.
Probably my fav fishing glass style yet.
The Smith and Jims would be a good bet.
