Costa sunglasses come with a lifetime guarantee. Renato Cappuccitti, Director of Sales at Costa, explains the technology that helps a pair of Costa's last a lifetime. This includes mirrors baked into the lens so they can't be scratched off, and patented Hydrolite rubber fused to the frame for a no-slip grip.
About Costa
We're always about developing new products and technology in order to appeal to our core customer or that person that has always known Costa to be known for durability. What put us on the map was being able to make lenses that were unmatched in durability (framesdirect.com/knowledge-center/costa-lenses).
Mirrors have been popular for quite some time (framesdirect.com/collections/mirrored-sunglasses-dp). We make mirrors differently than others. Our mirrors are actually under the surface of the lens with glass lenses. It's inside the lens, which means our mirrors will last for a lifetime. They'll never be scratched off the surface.
We also know that frames have to be durable, as well. You're wearing them in very harsh environments. When you're outdoors, you're perspiring, especially with a sport (framesdirect.com/shop-by-sport). A lot of our frames incorporate a hypoallergenic rubber that helps them. It's called Hydrolite. It's unique to Costa and it helps them hold onto the face, onto your ears, so that they're not slipping down.
We also warranty that for a lifetime. That's a unique feature for Costa, as well. It's actually bonded and fused to the frame. It is not glued on. Our frame technology can be quite unique, as well.
