The Reefton PRO‘s large frame loved by anglers is now updated with Costa’s new PRO Series fit and features: sweat management channels and eyewire drains, improved Hydrolite rubber, adjustable nose pads, top hooding and side shields and metal keeper slots.

We tried the Blue Mirror lenses (Premium Polarized 580, with 100% UV protection of course) for bright, full-sun situations on the open water and offshore. We found them ideal for open reflective water that will bleach out lesser lenses.

When you try these on for the first time, the difference is shocking. It’s almost a superpower, your ability to see underwater features with such clarity and nuance. And the Hydrolite rubber nose pads are another major highlight, made from Costa’s proprietary, hypoallergenic rubber which prevents slippage when you’re sweating.

The nose pads boast two channels apiece to allow airflow. This attention to detail is rare, and evidence that Costa designers are always out on the water, testing and retesting to design sunglasses that really stand up to the elements in real-time.

And maybe best of all? The frames are made of castor oil–based Bio Resin material—part of Costa’s Kick Plastic initiative to reduce their carbon footprint and protect the planet’s waters. (Bio-resin frames are just as durable and lightweight as petroleum-based plastic.) With plastic sunglass frames a huge contributor to the pollution crisis, Costa’s efforts here can’t be understated. They’re doing more than any other optics manufacturer to tackle this.

No one called me Feet Banks back in 1987. In those days, most people called me by my given name—except for my ski buddies, to whom I was known by the most badass moniker to ever schuss the slopes: Twinkle Toes.
We’re celebrating 20 Years of Mountain Life!
From The Gear Shed: Last Monday was the official start of spring, but we know there’s still some winter to be shredded. So ML staff and partners have picked the latest jackets, lanterns, bindings, mugs and drysuits for winter-spring.

The Southern Interior region of BC holds an ecological cross-section of the province with alpine meadows, arid Douglas fir grasslands, damp cedar and hemlock forests of the Columbia Mountains and the warm expanse of Shuswap Lake.

Conceived by superhuman snowboarder @travisrice, the @naturalselection Tour highlights earth’s premier riders, from big-mountain mavens to Olympians, all competing on the most stoketastic—and unpredictable—terrain known to humankind.
Built upon a shared desire to enjoy, respect, and advocate for Alberta’s incredible landscapes, it was a natural fit for @elementsoutfitters to work with a local conservation organization @saltslandtrust to highlight the province’s rugged beauty and outdoor apparel to match.
