Flying Fisherman Buchanan Crystal Gunmetal Smoke

The Flying Fisherman Buchanan Crystal Gunmetal Smoke delivers serious eye protection built for time on the water and in the field. These wraparound fishing sunglasses combine a large, protective frame design with practical comfort features that keep you focused on what matters—whether you're sight-casting to cruising fish or glassing distant terrain from the boat or truck bed. The Buchanan's generous coverage and wide temples provide the kind of all-day wearability serious anglers and outdoor enthusiasts demand.

Polycarbonate construction is standard for impact-resistant eyewear, and Flying Fisherman engineered these glasses with vented rubber nose pads that prevent slipping and sweating during long days in the sun. Extended temple pads offer additional comfort and security, especially if you're wearing them over a hat brim or need stability while moving through brush or water. At just 1.1 ounces, weight isn't a factor—you'll forget you're wearing them.

The Crystal Gunmetal Smoke colorway offers a neutral, professional look that works on the dock, at the range, or anywhere outdoors. The 8 BASE lens curve and 63mm lens width provide wide-angle vision without distortion, giving you the optical performance you need for spotting and hunting applications. This is workmanlike eyewear: no gimmicks, no fussy design—just solid protection that handles real outdoor conditions.
