SeaSpecs saved my life
 
Last year while jet skiing on the chesapeake bay in Annapolis, MD.  I ran
into a violent thunderstorm. Sustained winds of 60 mph, gusts to 100 mph. I
had to navigate 7 ft seas, basically submerging every other swell. It was a
storm I didn't think I had a chance of surviving.
 
I credit SeaSpecs as a huge part of what saved me that day. Despite the
worst conditions imaginable, my sea specs stayed on and I was able to see
through the driving rain that stung my skin.
 
I haven't stopped recommending your sunglasses since that day, and I wanted
to thank you for selling such a useful (and apparently life saving) product.
 
I am a customer for life!
 
Thank you,
Philip Altschuler

Hi Seaspecs,

On October 10, 2010, I participated in the Bankoh Moloka'i Hoe as the sole Connecticut paddler with the New York Outrigger team. The“Moloka’i” as it is known is the world's premier outrigger race and held in Hawaii. This was the 59th running of the race. The course runs from Hale O Lono on the island of Moloka'i to Waikiki on the island of Oahu across the Kaiwi Channel. These are very rough waters, very rough waters, indeed.
 
There were 121 entries. The boats were OC-6s (six man outrigger canoes). Each boat has six seats, nine male paddlers, an escort boat, and weighed three-quarters of a ton when fully manned. Change outs occurred periodically and were performed while moving, pony express style.

For our team, the race lasted just under seven hours. I never took my SeaSpecs off from start to finish, even during change outs.

At last, after over 30 years of paddling either in semi-blindness or struggling with Croakies, string or duct tape I discovered Seaspecs, Prescription Sunglasses that stay on!  You can dive into the river, stand under a waterfall or paddle the river. They also do CLEAR lenses for kayaking in North Wales in the winter!

Dear SeaSpecs-  I just wanted to drop you a quick note telling you how impressed I am with your customer service.  After three years of excellent service from my SeaSpecs kiteboarding in many places around the world... It is so refreshing, in this day and age, to see a company really care about their customers.

Hi SeaSpecs!

Aloha, I'm a 52 year old surfing mom of five in Hawaii and won't go surf without wearing your glasses!

I’ve used SeaSpecs all days also when the waves were pretty big in Puerto Rico! I' ve really enjoyed your product..your glasses saved my eyes! ;)

I’m paddling the rivers arround the world since 2000 and I don’t remember how many of those expensive sun glasses I lost during my paddling days. Finally I get my 1st SeaSpecs in 2005, result perfect!! I simply love its polarised technologie. Its comfortable, safe and it stays on my face even on Class 5 big rapids! SeaSpecs is my lifetime bit of paddling equipment which I can use on and off the water.

…the SeaSpecs are quite brilliant. We flipped our rescue boat in large surf and were both submerged for a while, when we surfaced, the SeaSpecs were firmly in place. If I had been wearing anything else, I am sure I would have lost them.

I use my prescription Seaspecs for downhill mountain biking... and they're awesome! Just wanted to tell you about it.
 
Fantastic!!! Improves my riding experiences in the Norwegian mountains a lot...!

I bought a pair of Prescription SeaSpecs almost a year ago and have been meaning to write to you to say how they've changed my life! For nearly 30 years of surfing, I was near blind out there, particularly on overcast days when the clouds blended in with the water. It was always challenging to judge the size of the sets and where a wave was going to break. Many times I was caught out of position, paddling at the last second toward the wave. And forget having a conversation with another surfer in the water -- if his face was a blur, I could barely make out what he was saying ... All that changed with the Sea Specs.
Now I can see the waves clearly, well off in the distance. I don't have to fiddle around paddling from place to place at the last second -- I see the action clearly. I can talk to surfers, even ones at a distance.
BEST OF ALL: No fog. The glasses stay clear, which is some kind of engineering feat.
Thank you very much -- Sea Specs have changed my life! ”

Hi SeaSpecs!

We could finally test the sunglasses the first time on the catamaran, I can confirm that they are comfortable and suitable to our sport.

Will certainly be the ideal companion for our record attempt on the route Dakar-Guadeloupe.

Thanks again!

Thanks! We wore SeaSpecs every day and they made our time in the waves so much more enjoyable while battling the tropical sun glare.

Hey guys, here is a picture of myself, Kevin C, and Janet J putting some SeaSpecs through the paces on the Upper Pigeon River.  The performance of the glasses were second to none!   
Thanks for Everything,

From the day I got the SeaSpecs, I have been using it every time when I went out for kitesurfing. It feels so good when using it.
 
See attached a picture which you can use to put on your famous gallery if you want. This picture is of me with my blue SeaSpecs (my favorite color from all three SeaSpecs I have )  and was taken in Farø in Denmark during sunfall last Friday. It was awesome to kite with the glasses during the sunfall.
 
Again thanks for the good service and your quality product.  The copyrights of the picture are belonging to my boyfriend (Aleksandar Milojevic), which by the way is very happy with his prescription SeaSpecs as well.

They don't fog up or fall off our faces when we're racing!

I received my SeaSpecs on Friday. We had some really good waves and plenty powerful thanks to Hurricane Irene. The glasses performed flawlessly duck diving the waves and keeping the glare down. I wear contacts and the brightness of the sun makes it very difficult and painful to see. Now that I have my polarized SeaSpecs I can look directly into the reflection of the sun without any problems.
I have recommended your glasses to many people already.  Thank you, SeaSpecs!

SeaSpecs are the best glasses! Did the Molokai to Oahu paddleboard race with them. Absolutely super!

Aloha SeaSpecs,
I just want to say that your SeaSpecs are so well made that I'm still using the same glasses, and I'm not just a weekend surfer. I surf 5 days a week.
Great product.

Dear Seaspecs,

Just a note to let you know how well your seaspecs worked for me.
I just purchased a set of your sunglasses prior to teaching boating/PWC water safety course for Law enforcement at the Colorado River.  I wore the seaspecs throughout the course and was very surprised by the comfort, clarity, and wind block while operating the PWC’s at high speeds.  
 
I have been working the River for about 15 years and have tried many high end and expensive sunglasses over the years.  The seaspecs out performed the others in this environment.

These shades really work. They don't fog up like other ones I've tried. I wear them out surfing or standup paddle boarding & they stay on; if not protecting my eyes, then pulled down to hang around my neck. Without them my eyes feel blow torched after hours in the Ocean. Grateful for such a great product.

Aloha - I wanted to take a moment to thank you for my recent order of SeaSpecs from your company. I ordered them on Tuesday here in Hawaii, and they just arrived 3 days later by Friday! This is my first order from your company, and already I have taken the sunglasses down to the beach and they perform as advertised. I am very happy with them so far, and glad that a company still makes an affordable pair of water-sport sunglasses that perform so well.

I’m wearing my ever so cool Prescription Sea Specs and loving them! I can actually “see” when I am out wave dancing!!!

Sherry Sterling, Los Angeles (surfingsecretaries.com)

I had an interesting experience with my Sea Specs yesterday and would like to tell you about it, please feel free to post it on your website, I have attached a picture of me in my new sea specs after a surf lesson.

Yesterday while paddling out to surf in the China Uemura longboard classic, I paddled out like I would have any other day. Queens beach was INCREDIBLY crowded, so all of the women were dodging people in the various lineups to their best ability to get out to the contest break, a split second decision made by a surfer to turn around and take off on a wave likely would have taken my eye out or at least severely injured it and made a really bad end to my day. But I was wearing my sea specs. The surfer turned around and took off on a wave at the last second thinking they could make it without hitting me, but of course they fell, the surfer's board flipped and while carrying A LOT of forward momentum, hit me HARD, it seems the tip of the surfer's longboard actually bounced off my sunglasses. I had nowhere to go and no time to dive under because people were EVERYWHERE. In a split second I heard/felt a loud CRACK and my head was sandwiched between the two boards; the surfer must have fell on top of their board because the boards actually compressed with my head between them as well, everyone who saw it couldn't believe I was okay. This included the other competitors I paddled out with, who saw what happened. While waiting for our heat, we all concluded that my SeaSpecs sunglasses saved my left eye. I appear to have a little concussion and a nice black eye. However, my SeaSpecs saved me, and to my own shock, they are still intact although covered in board wax. Believe it or not, I still got to surf my heat while wearing my stylin’ SeaSpecs.

Thank you SeaSpecs,

I just want to let you know how much I LOVE your Sea Specs.
I am a 65 year old Boogie Boarder (not exactly extreme sports), but I do get dunked quite often.

I usually wear cheap sunglasses with elastic around the back (often lost) but your Sea Specs are just amazing!

I do not even have to wear a sun visor now as they are such a good fit and keep the sun well out of my eyes.

I bought the 3 pair s & I have already worn the red & the white ones. JUST FANTASTIC.


Good products are hard to find but this one I truly recommend.

Eileen attended the KORE (Kauai Ocean Recreation Experience) event on Saturday. She wanted to try surfing for the first time, but her eyes couldn’t handle the sun. SeaSpecs saved the day! Thanks from both Eileen & I.  It was such a great experience for both of us!

We are very favorably impressed with the quality of your sunglasses. I wear mine everyday in my boat, and the polarized lenses allow me to see into the water, something critically important in the shallow, coral laden lagoon.

I gave my assistants each a pair of SeaSpecs for our research project in the Gambier Islands. Well Marc and Renee, like I, now swear by your sunglasses. We used them every day for one month in all kinds of conditions, and they are simply the best for our work.

Marc and Renee had both purchased other sunglasses before arriving here, so for the first few days of the project they tested their sunglasses against the SeaSpecs...and in the end they used only SeaSpecs for the rest of the project.

Awesome glasses. Managed not to lose them & to see really clearly. Would recommend them to anyone, especially mad women like me daft enough to take up surfing when they hit 40 to stave off the effects of middle age, long after the eyesight starts to fail!

Thank you so much for all your help.

Can’t wait to use them again :)

the specs stayed on...yeah!

Can’t go wrong.

Owning and operating a full time surf tour operation, I surf on average between 4 and 8 hours per day, and at 29 years old I have already suffered from multiple bouts of long-term sun blindness and have a pterygium encroaching on my iris. Ever since I started wearing SeaSpecs, however, my eyes have been perfectly fine. My pterygium has stopped growing, and I haven’t experienced any sun blindness at all! In addition, I find that SeaSpecs hold up to use much better than other more expensive surf-glasses on the market. SeaSpecs enable me to surf epic waves under the equatorial sun for as long as my body can last. I don’t surf without them.

I strongly rely on SeaSpecs for my protection. They protect me from blowing sand, UV rays, losing my contacts, right on down to helping me through the surf when all other glasses I have wore have fallen off or just plain fell apart from rough surf fishing life conditions. As of now this is my top go to item when I exit the truck into above mentioned conditions.

Sunny day, running the falls right into the sun, trusted my Sea Specs to counter the sunlight and keep my Line!!

For the past two years I have had 2 trigiom surgery and skin cancer on my left eye. All due to years of surfing during middle of the day without  any protection on my eyes. Now with your product I can keep on surfing without any worries!

Thank You!

I have been buying new kites every year but been wearing the same pair of SeaSpecs for years. Thank you SeaSpecs!
