DESCRIPTION RATINGS & REVIEWS PRESCRIPTION GUIDE

The Costa Del Mar Reefton Pro 9080 sunglasses bring PRO Series performance to one of the most trusted frames in fishing. Named after the legendary New Zealand fishing town of Reefton, this large rectangular frame has been a favorite among anglers for years—and the PRO upgrade takes it to the next level with features designed to keep your vision clear and your frames locked in place, even when conditions get tough.

PRO Series Performance Features

The Reefton Pro 9080 is built for anglers who spend long days on the water. Sweat management channels run the length of the temples to wick away moisture, while eyewire drains prevent sweat from pooling in the frame—a combination that dramatically reduces fogging compared to standard sunglasses. The fully-adjustable nose pads are vented for airflow and let you dial in a custom fit that stays comfortable through 8+ hour sessions. Improved Hydrolite® rubber on the nose pads and temples actually grips better when wet, so the frames stay put when you're working a fish or moving around the boat.

The frame features top hooding and side shields that block peripheral light and glare, plus metal keeper slots in the temples so you can clip on retainers and keep fishing instead of searching overboard. This is an XL frame with a wide fit—the lenses measure 63.5mm wide and 43.1mm tall, making the Reefton Pro the largest in Costa's PRO Series and a solid choice if you've struggled to find performance sunglasses that fit a bigger head.

Costa 580G Lens Technology

The Reefton Pro 9080 is available exclusively with Costa's 580G glass lenses, which filter out harsh yellow light at 580 nanometers while enhancing reds, blues, and greens for sharper contrast and better definition in any environment. The result is clarity that lets you see structure, bait, and fish beneath the surface with less eye fatigue. These lenses are 100% polarized to eliminate reflective glare and provide 100% UV protection. The glass construction offers superior scratch resistance—mirrors are encapsulated between layers of glass, so they won't wear off—and Costa's LightWAVE® technology makes the 580G lenses 20% thinner and 22% lighter than average polarized glass.

The C-Wall coating adds an extra barrier that repels water, oil, and sweat for easy cleaning. Available in multiple lens colors including Blue Mirror (ideal for bright, full-sun offshore conditions), Green Mirror (high contrast for inshore and sight fishing), Gray Silver Mirror, and Copper Silver Mirror, each tint is optimized for specific light conditions.

Sustainable Bio-Resin Frame

The frame is constructed from Costa's proprietary bio-resin material, sourced from castor bean plants rather than petroleum. This eco-friendly material creates a smaller carbon footprint while delivering exceptional durability—bio-resin withstands salt, sun, and heat without compromising strength or flexibility. The frame is lightweight despite the glass lenses, and the integrated spring hinges provide a secure, comfortable fit built for longevity.

The Costa Reefton Pro 9080 is prescription-ready, so you can add your Rx lenses through authorized optical dealers. Whether you're sight-casting on the flats, running offshore, or just need serious sun protection for all-day outdoor wear, the Reefton Pro delivers PRO-level performance in a frame that's built to last.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Costa Reefton Pro 9080 sunglasses prescription-ready?

Yes, the Costa Reefton Pro 9080 is prescription-ready. Costa offers prescription lens options through authorized optical dealers, typically in 580P polycarbonate material for most prescriptions. The frame's fully-adjustable nose pads help ensure proper optical alignment when fitted with prescription lenses.

What is the difference between Costa 580G and 580P lenses?

580G lenses are glass and offer superior optical clarity and scratch resistance, with mirrors encapsulated between glass layers for durability. 580P lenses are polycarbonate—lighter weight and more impact-resistant, making them ideal for high-activity use. Both feature Costa's 580 technology that filters yellow light and enhances color, with 100% polarization and UV protection.

What size head do the Reefton Pro 9080 sunglasses fit?

The Reefton Pro 9080 is an XL frame with a wide fit, designed for average to larger head sizes. The lenses measure 63.5mm wide and 43.1mm tall—the largest in Costa's PRO Series. The fully-adjustable nose pads allow you to customize the fit, and multiple reviews confirm they fit larger heads comfortably without sliding.

How do the sweat management features work on the Reefton Pro?

The Reefton Pro features sweat management channels that run through the length of the temples to enable airflow and wick away moisture. Eyewire drains at the frame allow sweat to drain rather than pool near the lenses. Combined with vented, adjustable nose pads, this system significantly reduces fogging—a feature consistently praised in angler reviews.

What lens color is best for fishing in the Costa Reefton Pro?

Green Mirror lenses (10% light transmission, copper base) are the most versatile choice for inshore fishing and varied light conditions, offering high contrast for sight fishing. Blue Mirror lenses (gray base) excel in bright, full-sun offshore situations. Sunrise Silver Mirror lenses work best in low-light conditions like dawn or overcast days.

Are Costa Reefton Pro sunglasses durable enough for daily fishing use?

Yes, the Reefton Pro is built for serious durability. The bio-resin frame withstands salt, sun, and heat, while 580G glass lenses are highly scratch-resistant with encapsulated mirrors that won't wear off. The improved Hydrolite rubber and spring hinges are designed for long-term use. Multiple anglers report years of heavy use with minimal wear.

Costa Reefton Pro 9080 vs. Original Reefton 9007

The most common question: is the PRO upgrade worth it? The Costa Reefton Pro 9080 takes the beloved Reefton 9007 frame and adds six key performance features designed for serious anglers. The PRO model includes sweat management channels and eyewire drains that dramatically reduce fogging—a game-changer if you've ever had your vision cloud up during a critical moment on the water. The fully-adjustable, vented nose pads let you dial in a custom fit and improve airflow, while the improved Hydrolite® rubber grips better when wet. Top hooding, side shields, and metal keeper slots round out the upgrades.

The original Reefton 9007 offers the same large rectangular frame shape and 580 lens technology at a slightly lower price ($181.73–$296 vs. $196.87–$309), and it's available in both 580G glass and 580P polycarbonate options. If you fish occasionally or in moderate conditions, the standard Reefton delivers excellent performance. But if you're logging long days on the water, dealing with heat and humidity, or need maximum fog resistance, the Reefton Pro's upgrades justify the difference. Multiple reviewers note the PRO is the first pair of sunglasses they've worn that truly doesn't fog.

Reefton Pro 9080 vs. Blackfin Pro 9078

Both are PRO Series frames with identical performance features—sweat channels, eyewire drains, adjustable nose pads, improved Hydrolite, and 580G-only lenses. The choice comes down to fit and style. The Reefton Pro has the largest lenses in the PRO Series (63.5mm x 43.1mm), offering maximum coverage and a casual, confident look. It's the go-to for anglers with larger heads or those who want the most peripheral protection.

The Blackfin Pro 9078 ($272–$309) is more streamlined and technical-looking, with a medium fit that works better for average-sized faces. It's an award-winning design from the original PRO Series launch and excels for anglers who prefer a lower-profile frame. If you want the biggest field of view and the most light-blocking coverage, choose the Reefton Pro. If you prefer a sleeker, more compact frame, the Blackfin Pro is your pick.

Reefton Pro 9080 vs. Tuna Alley 9009

The Tuna Alley 9009 ($199–$296) is another large-coverage Costa frame popular with offshore anglers, featuring signature vents at the bottom corners of the lenses for airflow. However, the standard Tuna Alley lacks the PRO Series upgrades—it has fixed nose pads, no sweat management channels, and no top hooding or side shields. The lenses are also smaller than the Reefton Pro by about 3cm in both height and width.

Costa does offer a Tuna Alley PRO with the same features as the Reefton Pro, and the choice between those two PRO models comes down to lens shape preference: the Reefton Pro has the most square-shaped lenses in the series for a casual style, while the Tuna Alley PRO maintains the classic Tuna Alley silhouette with modernized vents. If you're comparing the standard Tuna Alley 9009 to the Reefton Pro 9080, the PRO's adjustable fit, fog resistance, and larger coverage make it the better choice for serious fishing—though the Tuna Alley remains a solid option at a lower price if PRO features aren't essential.
