Comments about Offshore Sunglasses, Black Frames with Blue Mirror Lenses:
Bought for fishing use. Fit, comfort & look are great. (If you have a bigger head or wider face, these fit well. I should know. Hah!)
Suggest buying a hard case for storage protection during transport or being really careful with these when not in use. I've bought three pairs and I've broken all three at the hinge where it connects to the frame. It's a plastic-to-plastic connection with a screw that holds it in place.
Maybe I've just been careless with all the pairs I've owned but the design of this particular model at the hinges are its weak point in my opinion. I've since bought the "Express" model which has metal-to-metal hinge connections instead. That being said I would buy the "Offshore" model again but with a hard case for protection.

Comments about Offshore Sunglasses, Black Frames with Blue Mirror Lenses:
I am a professional captain and these are the best polarized shades I've found for the money. they are comfortable, and stay on while your moving around. The polarized lens work great - they are light weight, and the Calcutta brand has several styles. this is my 4th pair in 3 years, I'm hard on them. Only con for me is that the mirror coating is not real durable, even so, when it scratches it doesn't seem to degrade the performance.
