Costa Sunglasses is growing its hybrid category of frames for spring with Mainsail and Aleta for wearing on land and water. 

Mainsail (unisex) gets its name from the mainsail on a sailboat and Aleta (women) from the Spanish word for fin. Both offer a relaxed look and feel with technical features for wearing on the water. 

Integrated micro side shields and hooding keep additional light out for improved view, the vented Hydrolite nose pad​ keeps the frames locked in place and helps prevent fogging, sweat management channels and eyewire drains keep sweat out of the eyes, and keeper-ready temples keep the frames in place.

“Our new hybrid category is our most versatile. It has it all, water-ready performance and a stylish, modern design,” said John Acosta, Costa Sunglasses vice president of marketing NA. “We took the performance features that Costa is famous for and added them to a more relaxed frame shape that is equally comfortable and durable on any adventure.”

Mainsail and Aleta use Costa’s polarized, color-enhancing 580 lens technology for next-level clarity. The scratch-resistant lens cuts haze and blur and enhances key colors for clarity and definition. Built with Bio-Resin, Mainsail and Aleta are lightweight and durable.
