Building off of the success of Costa’s hybrid category – frames that blend performance features with everyday style – Mainsail (unisex) and Aleta (women’s) are built with the same high-quality materials and features you want from the beach to the big blue. The versatile new frames are just at home reeling in a fish as they are checking surf breaks, voyaging to a remote atoll or exploring a coastal village.
Inspired by the watery world Costa is synonymous with, Mainsail gets its name from the mainsail on a sailboat, and Aleta, from the Spanish word for “fin.” Staying true to their roots, Mainsail and Aleta maintain a relaxed look and feel, while their technical features are ready for anything the water throws at you. Integrated micro side shields and hooding help keep additional light out for an improved view, the vented Hydrolite™ nose pad keeps your frames locked in place and helps prevent fogging, sweat management channels and eyewire drains keep sweat out of your eyes, and keeper-ready temples keep your frames from going overboard.
“Our new hybrid category is our most versatile. It has it all, water-ready performance and a stylish, modern design,” says John Acosta, Costa Sunglasses Vice President of Marketing NA. “We took the performance features that Costa is famous for and added them to a more relaxed frame shape that is equally comfortable and durable on any adventure.”
