The Costa Del Mar Kailano 2013 sunglasses bring together classic square styling and Costa's legendary 580 polarized lens technology in a premium acetate frame built for life on and off the water. Named after a Hawaiian word for the sea, the Kailano is part of Costa's Del Mar collection—a lifestyle-focused line that pairs performance optics with refined, everyday design.
Costa 580 Lens Technology: Color-Enhancing Polarization
Every pair of Costa sunglasses features 100% polarized lenses with the brand's patented 580 technology. Unlike standard polarized lenses, Costa 580 lenses filter out harsh yellow light at 580 nanometers on the visible spectrum, allowing reds, greens, and blues to appear naturally vibrant. The result is sharper contrast, enhanced color definition, and reduced eye strain—especially valuable during long days in bright sunlight or on the water. Costa 580 lenses also block 100% of UV light and absorb high-energy visible (HEV) blue light, protecting your eyes from long-term damage. The proprietary C-Wall coating adds scratch resistance and repels water, oil, and sweat for easy cleaning.
Premium Acetate Construction & Keyhole Bridge Design
The Kailano features durable acetate frames—a material prized for its strength, light weight, and hypoallergenic properties. The full-rim square shape delivers a modern, structured look that complements a range of face shapes, while the keyhole bridge adds vintage-inspired character and distributes weight evenly on the sides of the nose rather than pressing down on the bridge. This design is particularly comfortable for those with low or flat nose bridges and helps prevent slipping during active wear. Water-inspired temple detailing and clean lines round out the design, making the Kailano equally at home exploring coastlines or running errands around town.
Prescription-Ready Frames
The Kailano 2013 is prescription-ready, so you can add single-vision or progressive lenses to enjoy Costa's color-enhancing optics with your exact prescription. Available in eight color combinations—including classic black, smoke crystal, tortoise, and blue options—the Kailano offers versatility for any style preference.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Costa Del Mar Kailano sunglasses prescription-ready?
Yes, the Costa Kailano 2013 sunglasses are prescription-ready. Most Costa frames can be outfitted with prescription lenses, including single-vision and progressive options. The acetate frame construction makes it easy to customize with your exact prescription while maintaining Costa's 580 polarized lens technology for color enhancement and glare reduction.
What is Costa 580 lens technology?
Costa 580 lens technology filters out harsh yellow light at 580 nanometers on the visible light spectrum, allowing reds, greens, and blues to appear more vibrant. This patented technology enhances color, contrast, and definition while providing 100% UV protection and 100% polarization to eliminate glare. Costa 580 lenses also absorb harmful high-energy visible (HEV) blue light that can cause eye strain and long-term damage.
What is a keyhole bridge and how does it fit?
A keyhole bridge is shaped like an old-fashioned keyhole and rests on the sides of the nose rather than directly on the bridge. This design distributes weight evenly, reduces pressure points, and is particularly comfortable for people with low or flat nose bridges. The keyhole bridge also helps prevent the sunglasses from sliding down your nose during active wear.
What material are Costa Kailano frames made from?
The Costa Kailano 2013 features premium acetate frames. Acetate is a durable, lightweight, and hypoallergenic material that's ideal for layered designs with rich colors. It's strong enough to withstand daily wear while remaining comfortable for all-day use, and it can be easily adjusted for a custom fit with prescription lenses.
Do Costa sunglasses have UV protection?
Yes, all Costa sunglasses provide 100% UV protection, blocking harmful ultraviolet light from reaching your eyes. The lenses also feature the C-Wall coating, which provides extra scratch resistance and creates a barrier that repels water, oil, and sweat for easy cleaning and long-lasting durability.
What does the name 'Kailano' mean?
Kailano gets its name from a Hawaiian word for the sea. As part of Costa's Del Mar collection, the design is inspired by life on the water, featuring water-inspired temple details, a keyhole bridge, and clean styling that works equally well for exploring coastlines or everyday wear.

Costa Del Mar Kailano vs. Sullivan vs. Ferg: Which Square Frame Is Right for You?
If you're drawn to Costa's square frame designs, the Kailano 2013, Sullivan 2002, and Ferg 9002 each offer distinct advantages depending on your style and intended use.
Kailano 2013: Lifestyle Meets Performance
The Kailano stands out with its premium acetate construction and distinctive keyhole bridge design. As part of Costa's Del Mar collection, it's built for those who want Costa's legendary 580 lens technology in a refined, everyday frame. The keyhole bridge distributes weight evenly and is particularly comfortable for people with low or flat nose bridges. The water-inspired temple details add subtle character, making the Kailano equally appropriate for coastal adventures or urban settings. With eight color options ranging from classic black to vibrant blue, the Kailano offers versatility without sacrificing performance.
Sullivan 2002: Del Mar Collection Alternative
The Sullivan is another acetate frame from Costa's Del Mar collection, offering a similar lifestyle-focused approach with a square shape. While both frames share premium materials and prescription-ready construction, the Sullivan may feature different temple styling and bridge design. If you prefer a more traditional bridge over the Kailano's keyhole design, the Sullivan is worth considering. Both frames deliver the same Costa 580 color-enhancing polarization and UV protection.
Ferg 9002: Performance-Oriented Square
The Ferg takes a more performance-oriented approach, often featuring bio-resin frame materials designed to withstand tough conditions on the water. While it shares the square shape and Costa 580 lens technology, the Ferg is built for anglers and outdoor enthusiasts who prioritize durability and function over lifestyle styling. If you spend most of your time fishing or in harsh environments, the Ferg's rugged construction may be the better choice. However, if you want a frame that transitions seamlessly from the boat to the boardwalk, the Kailano's acetate construction and refined design offer more versatility.
Our Recommendation
Choose the Kailano 2013 if you want a premium acetate frame with distinctive keyhole bridge comfort and styling that works for both active and everyday wear. The Del Mar collection design makes it the most versatile option for those who want Costa performance without an overtly sporty look. All three frames are prescription-ready and feature Costa's industry-leading 580 polarized lenses, so you can't go wrong—it's simply a matter of matching the frame design to your lifestyle and aesthetic preferences.
