Hybrid Performance Meets XL Comfort: Costa Debuts Broadbill II XL

Costa Sunglasses is expanding its lineup of fan-favorite hybrid frames to offer more size versatility with the launch of Broadbill II XL — an evolution of Broadbill II, now engineered in a larger fit for those looking for more coverage.

Designed for the versatile waterman looking for uncompromising quality in every detail, Broadbill II XL brings modern hybrid design to a larger fit, pairing XL sizing and spring hinges with Costa’s performance DNA. Constructed from injected bio-resin, the 8-base wrap coupled with a square silhouette delivers clean, contemporary style and dependable coverage.

Broadbill II XL is built for adventure, and transitions seamlessly from long days on the water to everyday wear around town, while elevated details enhance both protection and comfort. Micro side shields and subtle hooding help minimize light leak, and vented nose pads promote airflow to reduce fogging during high-energy pursuits. Costa’s renowned polarized lens technology enhances color and contrast, filters reflective glare and blocks harmful UV light, delivering crisp clarity for every environment that lies ahead.

The new frame is sported by Justin Lee, National Spearfishing Champion and roster athlete for the USA National Spearfishing team. As a hunter and storyteller who shares disciplined, ethical dives and family-rooted aloha from Hawai‘i’s reefs, his approach to the ocean reflects the spirit behind Broadbill II XL: capable, intentional and deeply connected to the water.

Broadbill II XL is available now on CostaDelMar.com and at select retailers nationwide for $285 in various frame colorways including Matte Black, Matte Tortoise, and Matte Terra Cotta, as well as Gold Mirror, Green Mirror, Blue Mirror and Grey lenses.
