Last-Minute Gift Idea: Sunglasses Made in Florida

Costa del Mar's Saltbreak Shades

Costa del Mar has let two styles from its 2013 lineup out of the bag early, just in time for the last-minute holiday-shopping rush. The Tuna Alley and Saltbreak (pictured) sunglasses are two of 13 new styles the company plans to relase in 2013, Costa's 30th anniversary since it was founded in Ormond Beach in 1983 (the company since moved to nearby Daytona Beach). The new styles continue the tradition of quality, functionality and style that helped the company skyrocket to success in the 1980s, becoming the de-facto sunglasses among outdoor enthusiasts. Vents on the Tuna Alley frames prevent lens fog, and Saltbreaks feature a no-slip lining to keep the glasses from falling off while battling gamefish or cruising down the beach.

The new shades are available now on Costa del Mar's web site.
