FAQs

What face shapes are the Costa Mainsail best for?

The rectangle frame shape is specifically designed to complement oval and round face shapes.

Are these lenses polarized?

Yes, Costa lenses are known for their advanced polarization technology which significantly reduces reflected glare.

Can I use these for driving?

Yes, the high contrast provided by the green mirror lens is excellent for reducing glare while driving, though you should avoid polarized lenses if your car has a head-up display that may become distorted.

How do I remove salt buildup from the frame?

Rinse the glasses thoroughly with cool, fresh water and a drop of mild soap, then pat dry with a clean microfiber cloth.

What is the best way to store the glasses?

Store them in a hard-shell case in a cool, dry place to protect the lens coating and frame integrity.

Are the lenses scratch-resistant?

While durable, the mirror coating is a delicate layer. Always treat your lenses with care and avoid placing them face-down on hard surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Smudges or oil buildup on the lens surface

Use a dedicated lens cleaning solution and a clean microfiber cloth to gently buff away residue in a circular motion.

The frame feels loose or crooked

Take the glasses to a professional optician for a frame adjustment to ensure the hinges and temple arms are properly aligned.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Costa Mainsail sunglasses last, rinse the lenses with fresh water after exposure to saltwater to remove mineral deposits and grit. Always use a microfiber cleaning cloth to wipe away smudges, as paper-based products like tissues or napkins can contain wood fibers that cause micro-scratches on the lens coating. When not in use, store your sunglasses in a hard-shell case to prevent accidental impacts or lens deformation. Avoid leaving the glasses in a hot vehicle, as extreme temperature fluctuations can stress the frame materials and compromise lens alignment.
