Flying Fisherman Rafter Floating Sunglasses Matte Black Smoke

The Flying Fisherman Rafter floating sunglasses are engineered for anglers who spend serious time on the water. Built with a small-fit, wrap design and wide temples that block sunlight from the sides, these polarized fishing sunglasses deliver the coverage and clarity serious fishermen demand. Unlike standard eyewear, the Rafter frames are made from TPX™ material—a low-density, flexible polymer that actually floats. Drop them overboard and you'll fish them out; lose them to the bottom of your boat and they'll stay visible. That's a genuine advantage when you're focused on the bite, not babying your gear.

The matte black smoke finish pairs function with clean aesthetics. AcuTint® polarized lenses cut glare off the water surface, boost contrast to help you spot fish and structure, and deliver the visual clarity that makes a real difference when you're reading the water all day. The lenses block 100% of UVA and UVB rays, so your eyes stay protected whether you're chasing redfish in Louisiana marshes or targeting bass in Ozark lakes. Triacetate lens construction adds impact and scratch resistance—important when you're handling rods, climbing in and out of boats, and dealing with the salt spray or freshwater splashes that come with the territory.

Built for comfort over long days on the water, the Rafter combines TPX™ durability and heat resistance with an anti-saltwater coating on the lenses. These aren't weekend-warrior shades; they're designed to handle the real work of fishing. If you've ever watched a good pair of sunglasses sink in 20 feet of water or fogged up when you needed them most, the Rafter solves both problems.
