Trusted Review™ Scorecard
Recently I lost a my favorite pair of sunglasses, my Costa Del Mar Fathoms flew off my head and sank into Lake Erie. So, to hold myself over until I was able to order myself a new pair I went to a local bait shop(Jeff’s Bait &Tackle) that I knew had a ton of sunglasses. There on the counter was some new ones that I hadn’t seen last time I was in. I found a pair on the rack from Maxx that had similar frame that I wore in my Costas. After asking a few questions about them I figured I would give them a try. The pair I went with was the Black Framed Fusion with HDP lenses; the glasses have amber lenses and are polarized. They retail for only $19.95, so I had nothing to lose for giving them a try.
The first time I had these on while fishing was a wade fishing trip for Channel Catfish, and I was impressed with them right away. They had the clearest view into the water I have ever seen from a pair of sunglasses at this price point. The amount of glare they cut was very good also. I was able to make out some pretty small minnows swimming right under the surface over 10 yards away.
The only drawback I have found with them is the frame weight, but I am comparing them with my Fathoms that I lost which are very light frames. The frame itself though seems to be pretty durable and I have yet to break them. In fact I haven’t been treating them too kindly, I have been throwing them around and I have to have any breakage. So if you are in the market for a new pair of sunglasses, that will not break the bank, give these Maxx Fusions a look.

Quality
The quality of these sunglasses are at the top of the class for sunglasses in this price point. The frames are tough and I have yet to even scratch the lenses, let alone shatter the polycarbonate lenses. The clarity gives you an HD feel to your world when your wearing them.
Reliability
So far I have been unable to even break them, the shatterproof lens have taken everything I have given them, short of a sinker to lens.
Price/Value
The price on these is great! I think they could even ask a little more for them and get it. These are the best value I have ever seen in the $29.99 and under price point for sunglasses
Referability
If I knew someone that need a good pair of glasses and in a hurry or someone that loses them often I would recommend these to them. They are just fantastic for money
