Update: went and tried on several. The Blokes were still too tight. The Rincon were spring loaded hinges and we're very comfortable for a big head.
Green mirror lens.
Thanks for all the feedback.
Green or the blue lens?
I'm looking at the Rincon or Blokes as they are wide enough for my giant head.
Not sure which to choose.
Or
Thanks. I'd appreciate any input.

Let me know what you decide. My head is too big for small people Costas too.

I have a few different pairs, but my Zanes have been my go to for the last several years. They are just the most comfortable to me.

Using them for fishing or just eye protection? If fishing, get the tightest fitting ones around your eyes that let in the least amount of light. I don't think color really matters but for seeing fish, fit does.
I've been wearing Triple Tail for years but those have been discontinued.

I have worn a pair of green Fantail for years. I wore green Switchfoot before they were discontinued. I have very sensitive eyes and wear sunglasses if the sun is out and I am outside.

Both. Never worn a green lens but YouTube tells me they are for more inshore and gives better contrast. I have plenty of glasses ffrom work I can wear daily so these would more than likely be for fishing more.
The blokes look like they give more protection but the other lens looks larger perhaps.

I’d choose the first ones. Second ones are getting into “White Oakley” territory with the thick rims/earpiece

I’d say go to the store like Bass Pro and try on every pie you can. I learned hard way that fit of them can be way different than what I think by looking at picture.

Jose with 580G blue

I can spot fish better inshore with my green lens over my blue lens

What kind of fishing are you doing?
Posted on 8/22/19 at 6:15 am to thejudge
Hammerhead blue lens

The Galveston's are what I wear for fishing. I wear the Cocos for driving.

Green mirror lenses are an amber base and better for inshore fishing. That's what I use exclusively for sight casting. Blue mirror is a grey base and better for offshore. So just depends what kind of fishing you do.
Also, I much prefer the 580G's as opposed to the plastic lenses. Seems to be better clarity.

I have the Blokes (bottom pic) and they fit my fat face perfectly.

Just went through this about a week ago. Tried on both of those as mine were for fishing too.
Settled on the Reeftons. Might want to try those, they are pretty similar to the ones you have shown.
I do mostly inshore fishing and went with the blackout, 580G green lens. Are easily my favorite pair (have 4 other models).

Whatever pair fits your face just make sure that they are glass lenses.

I prefer the green lens. It doesn't make everything as dark and brightens up green and red objects. If that makes any sense.

580G Green for most of South Louisiana fishing. I love my Brine pair
