The wife had a blast fishing the bay at St Joe and after wearing my Costa's she decided she needs some quality fishing/driving polarized glasses and I need a new pair myself. I've been wearing Costas since the early 90's so I can figure out the style and 580 lense color we want this time. I'll probably look at some Maui Jims while I'm at it. I've lost a lot of weight and my face is much narrower than it used to be so I'm going to have to try them on for fit and she will want to see how they fit and look on her.
Question is where to buy them around Moultrie, Valdosta, Thomasville, and possibly Tallahassee area? I'm looking for good selection and prices. I've heard an optometrist near the mall in Albany is really good at service and fitting them to your face but I've never been in her store. I like spending locally but if I can try some on and then save a bunch of money from an online site that would be a good option. Google searches haven't led to any bargains yet though.
I've casually looked at Backwoods Outdoors in Albany, Lazarus in Moultrie, and a tshirt/sunglass store in Valdosta as you come into town near the theater. I do have to go to Atlanta in a couple of weeks so I'll be going by Perry Sportsman Center and Macon BPS on the way.

South Georgia Outdoors or Kevin's can hook you up. And they are both sponsors of BBF.

I don't want to take $$ away from the locals but I saved $40 a pair when I got my Maui Jims on eBay.

I bought a pair of prescription, polorized Costa's about three years ago. Not knowing the color I needed, I got the regular dark shades but polorized. They aren't worth a hoot! Last week I had my regular eye exam and though I'd change out my lens in the Costa glasses with another color. What I found out was Costa just change their policy and will not let another lens maker, make and put their lens in Costa's frames. First I knew the prescription lens I have were not made by Costa. I have the lens that came with the Costa glasses but do not know if they are polorized or not. Need to find out and change back to them if they are polorized.

All I can say is be CAREFUL if you are getting prescription lens.

I've bought 4-5 pairs of Costa from South Georgia Outdoors over the last 2-3 years and have had a few service issues which were taken care of Pronto. I don't remember Ebay having a very good return policy or service department.
I do wish SGO carried Kaenon glasses.

i bought my last my last pair from siverking for 1/2 price and been more than happy

South Georgia Outdoors has got my vote.

Well my frist choice would be Southga Outdoors But thaT JUST ME HEATH HAS ALL WAys treated me really fair and He is a top notch guy

Thanks. I guess I'll call and see if S GA Outdoors has the women's shades for the wife too.
I don't think I've seen the Jose style in person. Might have to try them on. I'm wondering if the larger frame styles like the Brine or Harpoon will fit now or be too big so an in-person trial run is needed.

I think SGO has a sale running 6/9-11.

I'm a maui Jim guy myself, but if you go with maui's makes sure they are the ones that want let the sun in the side. I personally beleave that the maui lenses are a lot clearer.

You don't have to go out and buy big ticket sunglasses. I have a pair from West Marine that were
around 60 bucks that works just as good as some 150 dollar pair from Costa.

I've seen some Wiley-X in town.

Go see Heath @ SGO or Linn @ Kevin's
