It’s no secret, I am a big fan of Costa Del Mar’s Gold Mirror lenses. I even composed a little song I sing when I wear my Sunrise Gold Mirror lenses.

My affection for the lens color sparked when I realized I could wear a lighter tint lens in low-light conditions and still achieve 100-percent polarization to reduce the sun’s glare off the water.
Costa Del Mar has added the encapsulated Gold Mirror and rose-based lens to their throw-back Grand Catalina frame. The redesigned Grand Catalina modernizes the iconic 80’s glacier glasses by adding removable side shields, traction pads, sweat and ventilation management and water-repelling lenses.
The Gold Mirror and rose lens allows 14 percent light visible light transmission, which is a perfect balance between darker lenses for full light and lighter lenses at dawn and dusk and on cloudy days.
To round these out into your new favorite sunglasses with clarity and consistent performance, the Grand Catalina Gold Mirror uses Costa’s top-of-the-line 580 glass lenses with optimized color and light control.
