For Immediate Release

Daytona Beach, Fla., - July 29, 2009 – The summer sun has finally risen, and Costa Del Mar is greeting the season with its new Wingman and Wheelhouse sunglass styles available now at local retailers and online at www.costadelmar.com. 

Part of Costa’s rimmed Monel® metal sunglass collection, Wingman sports a classic aviator style, and is available in gunmetal or gold frame colors.  Wheelhouse features a more square shaped lens, and comes in palladium or gold frames.   

Both of these new styles are available in Costa 400 or Costa 580 lens options, with eight colors to choose from, including gray, amber, vermillion, sunrise, copper, and blue, green and silver mirror.

Wingman and Wheelhouse feature integral stainless steel spring hinges and soft co-injected rubber temple tips, providing Costa’s signature “forget-they’re-on-fit” and easy adjustments.  The extra soft nose pads are also fully adjustable to give the wearer a custom-made flexible fit. 

Wingman and Wheelhouse range in retail price from $179 to $279, depending on lens selection, and are available in Rx-lens format, if needed.

“Wingman and Wheelhouse are classically designed sunglasses with all the performance technology Costa has to offer,” said Chas MacDonald, president of Costa Del Mar.  “These are great sunglasses whether you’re on or off the boat.”
