WindRider Polarized Floating Sunglasses for Fishing 100% UV Protection

Love it

I got these sunglasses to see whether I could wear them while surfing. Their hydrophobic lenses are quite good, I'd say. But the problem was the fogging. When the breeze is there, it's not much of a problem because the little cut on the outer upper side of the lenses lets in the breeze to blow away the fogging. But when there is no breeze, the lenses stayed fogged and I couldn't see very well. They are also a bit tight around my head even though my head is on the smaller side. But for a $35 sunglasses, they are pretty good.I also need to make a comment about their customer service: it's excellent! My lenses got scratched up so I emailed the company to see whether they would replace the lenses according to their warranty. They replied promptly and asked me to send them in. I just got them back, a brand new pair. I had to pay for the shipment to send them in but they sent the new pair promptly. I'm very impressed with their customer service.

They float great, and being white are easy to see floating out in the water. I thought the white rims would be distracting when wearing them but after about ten minutes I barely noticed it. The bridge has a lot of contact with your nose vs nose pads, which isn't great on a hot day, but not a big enough deal for me not to get them. The arms are a bit tight in the back on my head- I wear a 7 5/8 hat for reference. I haven't noticed if the vents make a difference yet, but that could be because they are working. I was pleasantly surprised they came in nice zippered case with microfiber lens cloths. I wanted sunglasses that wouldn't be overly dark in the shadows and they aren't. The trade off is they feel a little bright in completely open sunlight. I did take them off to see the difference and after doing that is was clear they helped a lot more than I initially thought, but they are brighter than regular dark sunglasses. Overall I am very happy and felt $35 was reasonable. These were the first pair I found that hit all my points: Reflective, wrap-around, UV blocking, polarized, and floating.

After loosing my Oakleys on my boat (lost Oakleys about 8-10 times on outdoor activities.). Oakley claims it is for performance and their stuff quickly flies off your head with a gust of wind or sinks in the water.I was glad to find these and the polarization is just the same as Maui Jim's. I took these on a cruise and with high winds they really stayed on my head. I really like the fact that they fog us less and with Covid wearing a mask with glasses is really hard even with fog spray.Great glasses and even if something happens to them they don't cost you $150+ to replace.

I purchased these sunglasses specifically for rowing. In particular I was drawn to them because of the opening next to the lens which seems like a good solve for more airflow, therefore not getting foggy when sweating 😅. Alas they fogged and didn't really meet the mark. I'll probably keep them for fishing, kayaking and paddle boarding, but they don't really meet the mark as rowing glasses. Do like that they float however.

The glasses look and feal great. Have not tested on the water yet, as I will need to exchange them, one of the lenses was scratched/ scuffed right out of the pachage.

These have been great for kiteboarding. They fit well and float if they ever get knocked off. However the coating has started to peel off.
