Bajio Hopedale

Bajio Hopedale Polarized Fishing Sunglasses

Large Fit • Medium Wrap

Named after the iconic fishing community along Bayou La Loutre in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana — the birthplace of sight-fishing for redfish — the Bajio Hopedale is a fitting tribute. Hopedale (aka La Chinche) was established by Isleño fishermen and trappers after the Civil War, and though Hurricane Katrina destroyed the community, the fishing remains world-class. Anglers still flock from across the country to sight-cast for redfish, black drum, and sheepshead in its legendary marsh.

The Hopedale frame delivers radical lens clarity through Bajio's polarized, blue light blocking lenses — essential for cutting glare and spotting fish on the flats. A hidden Sun Ledge™ blocks overhead light, recessed nose pads keep the frame comfortable all day, and durable barrel hinges are built to handle the elements. The large fit works on most head sizes, and the cool, casual style transitions seamlessly from the water to everyday wear.
