Costa Del Mar Rinconcito
Costa Del Mar Rinconcito Polarized Sunglasses
The Rinconcito is Costa's medium fit take on the brand's Rincon frame, named for the Southern California right point break that inspired its West Coast lines and curved temples. If you have searched for the Rinconcito by name, this is the same frame, sized down slightly from the original Rincon for a closer, more regular fit.
Frame and Lens Construction
The frame is built from Costa's bio-resin material, a lightweight construction that pairs with integral spring hinges so the arms flex rather than crack under everyday use. Lenses are polarized 580G glass, which is Costa's premium glass lens option, set at a base 6 curve for a wraparound field of view. The fixed, non-adjustable nosepad keeps the frame's profile consistent from pair to pair.

Who This Frame Fits
The Rinconcito is built in a regular fit, medium frame, making it a good option for anyone who found the standard Rincon running a little large. It suits the kind of all day sun exposure that comes with boating, fishing, and beach time along the South Florida coast, where glare off the water is constant, and the 580G glass lens is Costa's option for shoppers who prioritize optical clarity and scratch resistance over the lighter weight of a plastic lens.
Wearing and Caring for Your Costa Frame
Hydrolite nose and temple pads are designed to grip better as they get wet, which is the point on the water, at the beach, or on a boat deck, since a frame that slips when dry can actually hold tighter once you start sweating or get splashed. Rinse salt and sunscreen off the lenses and frame with fresh water and dry with a soft microfiber cloth rather than a shirt hem, and store the frame in a case when not in use to protect the polarized glass lenses from scratching. Because the spring hinges are integral to the frame rather than an add-on part, avoid forcing the arms past their natural range when folding the frame closed.
