Costa Del Mar Rincon, Named for a Legendary Point Break
Inspired by the iconic California point break, the Costa Del Mar Rincon embodies a timeless look with a straight bridge and stylishly contoured temples that evoke the West Coast. The big frame and sharp angles reflect the hard charging surfers who champion the sport, giving it a bold, oversized presence built for people who spend real time outdoors.
Lens and Frame Technology
The Rincon uses glass lenses, which Costa notes provide the best clarity of any lens material, with encapsulated mirrors between layers of glass that are scratch proof. The lenses are 20 percent thinner and 22 percent lighter than average polarized glass, while absorbing harmful high energy blue light, enhancing reds, greens, and blues, and filtering out harsh yellow tones. The gray lens option runs a gray base with 10 percent light transmission, suited to harsh sun, open reflective water, and boating or fishing in deep water. Every Costa pair filters reflective glare and blocks 100 percent of UV light, and the frame itself is crafted from a castor plant bio-based resin with advanced spring hinges for a comfortable, flexible fit.
Who This Pair Is For
The Rincon is built as a great oversized style for most wearers or a genuinely large fit for bigger heads, which the brand calls out directly. It suits anyone spending long hours on open water, whether boating, fishing, or simply out in harsh sun where glare management matters.
Wearing and Caring for Your Sunglasses
The C-Wall coating on Costa lenses adds extra scratch resistance and repels water, oil, and sweat for easier cleaning, so a quick wipe with a proper lens cloth keeps them clear. Rinse with fresh water after saltwater exposure and store in a protective case when not worn, since the encapsulated glass lenses, while scratch proof between layers, still deserve careful handling on the outer surface.
