Full details

These sunglasses feature a timeless oval frame in a Tortoise finish, providing excellent coverage and a comfortable fit for long-term wear. While the high-performance Copper lenses offer exceptional clarity and contrast, users should note that the injected frame design is optimized for a secure wrap-around fit, which may feel more snug on larger head sizes compared to standard lifestyle frames.

FAQs

Are these sunglasses polarized?

Yes, Costa Del Mar lenses are renowned for their advanced polarization technology, which eliminates reflective glare.

Can I use these for driving?

Absolutely. The Copper lens tint is excellent for driving as it enhances contrast and clarity in various lighting conditions.

Are the Brine frames suitable for prescription lenses?

While these are designed as high-quality sunglasses, compatibility with prescription lenses depends on your specific optical needs. It is recommended to check with a certified Costa dealer.

What is the best way to store the Brine sunglasses?

Always store them in a hard-shell case to protect the lenses from impact and the frames from being crushed.

How do I determine if these will fit my face?

The Brine series is a medium-fit frame. The wrap-around design is intended to be secure, so it is best for those who prefer a snug, performance-oriented fit.

Troubleshooting

Lenses appear cloudy or streaky after cleaning

Use a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a clean, dry microfiber cloth to remove oily residues that may have been missed.

Frames feel loose after long-term use

Check the hinge screws and tighten them carefully with a small precision screwdriver, or visit an authorized retailer for a professional inspection.

Saltwater residue buildup on the frame

Gently wash the entire frame with mild soap and lukewarm water, then pat dry with a soft cloth to prevent salt corrosion.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Brine sunglasses, follow these maintenance tips:

  1. Cleaning: Always rinse lenses with fresh water to remove salt or grit before wiping them with a microfiber cloth.
  2. Storage: Keep your sunglasses in their protective case when not in use to avoid scratches on the lens surface.
  3. Chemical Exposure: Avoid exposing the frames to harsh chemicals, including sunscreen or insect repellent, as these can degrade the frame finish over time.
  4. Adjustment: If the frames feel too tight, consult an optician for professional heat adjustments rather than attempting to bend the injected nylon yourself.
