I have the same Harpoon 580's but in i think copper or amber I don't remember. How did they break? I hear a lot of them break from the center in between the eyes.

I just bought Costas in the Corbina frame withe th 580 Green lens'. Best pair of glasses i have ever bought. The lenses are great they realy wrap around your eyes and provide a lot of protection.

Hammerhead Blue Mirror Lens......
About to pick up my 2nd and third pair from..
Colors in Downtown McAllen.....
Amber lens and Everyday Avaitor look alike...
I'm telling you if you need a pair you need to visit them.
There is a reason I get them there and not Academy or any other store.

I have two pair of black frame Fathoms one glass lenses in the Amber one CR-39 lenses in the Rose color (they were both over five years old - rose is no longer a color option). Also have a pair of 9 year old tortoise frame Eliminators 400's which before I dropped them 40' on a concrete floor during Hurricane IKE still had never scratched. Last year I sent all three in for some repairs of one type or another. The Eliminator frame I was told were not available anymore so I had to choose another replacement frame, so I chose the Hammerhead frame. When I received my repairs back two weeks later I found all Fathom lenses were totally replaced, the glass Fathoms got a new frame too. The CR-39 rose replacement lenses were now bronze with the new scratch resistant coating which was alright by me! When I looked at the remaining pair I found it to be a replacement Eliminator frame with new Green 580's SAAWWWEEETTTTT! They sent a letter saying that because I was a long time valued customer they were able to come up with a new frame and up graded from the 400 lense to the 580's. My total cost including shipping for the repairs of three old and well used saltwater incrusted glasses was $72.00. No Joking here. They are a wonderful company to work with and they back their product 100%. Since then I have had a cataract removed from my right eye and a new inner-occular lense inserted, now with the 580's I can see trout hiding in the grassbeds like never before. This picture is proof. Less than 36 hours after the surgery, (don't tell my doctor) Boom I see you.   |
