Hallo [Silverfish],
Late last year you both spent a lot of time helping me with my order for a pair of Silverfish prescription glasses. I’d not only like to thank you for that, but to report on their performance. I’ve now had the opportunity to use them on land and in the sea. The characteristic I appreciate more than any other is the vision sharpness the progressive lenses provide. I also appreciate the wide peripheral vision afforded by the frame and lenses. Relative to the frame, I like how well water drains from them and its light weight. I’ve recommended the Silverfish standard sunglasses to several other surfers. . . .
Thank you very much and best regards, Bill | December 29, 2007
I couldn't do without these glasses, because of them I'm able to surf and windsurf.

Thank you for a wonderful product!

Aloha,
Got my prescription silverfish a couple of months ago and WOW! I love them. I have been able to extend my sessions by hours since my eyes don't hurt so bad from the sun and wind. I sleep better after surf and don't look like I have red marbles for eyes on Monday morning at the office.

I had to write and say thanks to everyone at Silverfish for your wonderful product. I recently ordered a pair of prescription Whistler's and they have truly changed my life. Growing up along the coast of Central Florida, surfing was a way of life for me. At age 16 my vision started to deteriorate and glasses and contact lenses soon followed. At first surfing was no problem, as everything was just a bit blurry without correction, but within a few years my vision problems made it dangerous to be out in the surf. Surfing with contact lenses was not an option so I was forced to give it up.
Fast forward 20 years, back living in Central Florida, and my two sons (Ryan and Adam) are now avid surfers. As I watched them, I realized how much I missed it and how cool it would be if I could get back in the water with them. I was talking with a friend of mine, who happens to be a former professional surfer, and he mentioned your product to me. I went to your website that day and ordered my pair of prescription Whistlers. Soon after they arrived, I paddled out into 3-4' surf, with Ryan and Adam, and surfed my brains out! I was amazed at how well the glasses performed. Even when I fell, and I fell a lot that first day, they never once moved on my face. My vision was clear and the glasses never once fogged up. I am proud to report that, thanks to Silverfish, I am a surfer once again! Your product has given me back a part of my life I thought was gone and it is hard for me to put into words what it means to surf with my sons. The glasses perform well, look cool, and I would recommend them to anyone.
Thanks for a truly great product.

Thanks for making my first surfing experience possible. I knew I wouldn't
be able to surf without prescription eyewear, and thanks to Silverfish I was
able to finally do it. I was in Hawaii last week and took lessons with
Hawaiian Fire Surf school. The instructors rocked, and I even got
compliments from them about my shades. They were really surprised that they
stayed on thru the entire lesson. I admit, I was surprised myself. They
didn't feel like they were sliding around or even wanting to come off!
Hawaii is awesome, Hawaiian Fire is awesome and so is Silverfish! Mahalo! Belinda -------- | August 27, 2003
First of all, let me say thank you to [the sales department] of Silverfish for [their] assistance and making sure every thing was good to go, from the time I ordered through the shipping of my glasses. Guys, your product is great. These are the most fantastic shades I've every had in my life. The prescription, polarized lens[es] are wonderful. I'm not sure how I've gotten by all these years without my [S]ilverfish glasses. They are not only practical, they're stylish, too. I've received numerous compliments and recommend [S]ilverfish to everyone. The only thing better than owning a pair of [S]ilverfish sunglasses is having two pair. Thanks again, everyone. Aloha.

I ordered and received a pair from you guys a few days before a short surf trip to FLA in early August. I have to admit that I was skeptical about the things--when I got them they seem[ed] to fit securely, but a dry run and a wet run are two different things. I tried them in the pool, and was immediately impressed with how comfortable they were and how they flat out eliminated the glare that has been causing me a lot of significant eye fatigue over the past few years.
But the test would come in the surf. I wore them three of four days, and first two small days, riding my 10 footer in some fun 1-3 foot surf. What was really great was that I could surf all morning with the rising sun in my eyes, then hit it again mid-day when the glare was at max; NO eye fatigue present at night before bed, or in the morning when I got up. The third day we had some thumping chest high, pitching waves, and the sunglasses were incredible. They held on through some good spin-cycle barrels (I had forgotten to bring my leash for the morning session and was riding my 7'4 all day). What was really amazing to me was that I could body surf in after my board and the glasses just refused to be pulled off my face. I didn't have any problem with fogging--just a quick head dip and they rinsed clean. I did find that I needed to clean them after 2-3 hours in the water, but that was no big deal. But I found the entire design--from the nose piece to the strap, was so fine....
In short, an incredible product. Thinking about sending them back before year's end to get prescription lenses put in so I can wear them all the time, especially for carveboarding the hills here to stay in shape..... Great product. I'd recommend them to anyone, anytime. Can't wait to get back to some larger surf to put them through the paces Tom ----- | July 18, 2003 I have been out with my new [prescription] glasses a few times now. Conditions have not been extreme, but there have been wipeouts, and the glasses stayed on! I thought I would lose them (and 200 bucks) the first time out. I didn't believe they would really stay on, but they do! Plus I can see perfectly! I am stoked. For years I hesitated learning how to surf because I couldn't see, but now I can. I also thought these glasses would make me surf better, but unfortunately, so far they haven't. Linda ----- |
