Flying Fisherman Double Header Matte Tortoise/Amber
The Flying Fisherman Double Header in matte tortoise with amber lenses is a lightweight, full-coverage fishing and watersports eyewear option built for anglers who need reliable sun protection without the bulk. Weighing just 0.9 ounces, these polycarbonate frames deliver comfort during long hours on the water, with a wrap-around design that minimizes glare and maximizes your field of vision—critical when you're reading water, spotting structure, or tracking rising fish.
Fishing demands eyewear that stays put and doesn't slip when you're casting, wading, or working in humidity and spray. The Double Header addresses this with extended temple pads that grip securely and comfort-focused nose pads designed to sit snug without digging in. The matte tortoise finish blends classic styling with everyday wearability, and the amber lens tint is a proven choice for cutting through water glare and enhancing contrast in varying light conditions—especially useful for sight-fishing or shallow-water presentations.
These are built on a polycarbonate frame, a standard material in fishing eyewear for its combination of durability and light weight. The 8 base curve and 60mm lens width give you solid coverage without the feel of oversized frames. Whether you're fishing lakes, streams, or coastal flats, or simply need tough, comfortable shades for any outdoor pursuit, the Double Header delivers the functionality that matters: clear vision, stable fit, and all-day comfort.
