Are the Costa King Tide lenses polarized?

Yes. The King Tide uses Costa's 580 polarized lens, which cuts glare and boosts contrast, especially on water.

Can I get the King Tide with a prescription?

Yes. Costa offers the King Tide in prescription lens options, so you can get the same frame with your correction.

It is a large rectangular frame, so it suits wider faces best. Shoppers with narrow faces often find it oversized.

The King Tide gives more coverage and a bigger lens area than Costa's low-profile inshore styles, at the cost of a bulkier look.

Yes. The nylon frame is built to handle sun and salt, and owners report it holding up well with basic rinsing.
