"I really like the El Matador. I have the copper lenses. The side screens help with glare and side reflection. They are excellent for sailing and provide good protection. Con: I would prefer an option for different size frames. They have a tendency to fit a little loose on my head."
"Top notch"
"Bought these with the Sightmaster lens and wore them fishing at a quarry that typically has really clear water yet I was amazed how much more I could actually see. I was spotting fish and beds that otherwise I could not tell were there. Great product, comfortable fit, awesome application for fishing."
"Just got them so your request is premature"
"Blocks the sun from the side. Very effective on the glare. As a lifeguard of 38 yrs service, I Highly recommend these sun glasses."
"Great value- Quality!"
"Bought these for fishing and haven't had a chance to be on the water yet but off the water they are comfortable lightweight and definitely reduce the glare main test will be when I hit the water"
"Awesome pair of Glasses Awesome Price! Better then competitions overpriced sunglasses"
"I LOVE my Hobie El Matador’s! I got a pair last year and loved them so much I got 2 new pairs for the new kayak fishing season!"
