I have the Smith Spawns, they are sorta polarized I think. They are wicked cool. Really nice when its sunny out.

I would go with something where you can change the lense like you mentioned.....I think those smiths and some of the Bolles can be changed like those peops said above me. Just don't go cheap, it's your eyes we're talking about.

I would go with polorized, because when ever I need a lowlight lense, I just wear googles, because it is usally snowing. I really like my Arnettes and I have some kick ass Ray-Ban aviators, too bad they aren't very good for skiing.

I had interchangable lens' once...the novelty wore off eventually and i just used the same lens for all occasions.

in the case of just getting glasses...i have to give a shout out to von z's.. i gots a pair of the papa g's and they are the greatest thing ever. the lenses arnt interchangable or anything, but for just driving, or cruisin around town they are great. plus theyre really big. and really comfortable.

I just realized something, in Smith's line of interchangeable lenses they have some polarized ones so that makes thing easy.
but hey, if someone's already in the christmas spirit and can get me a deal on Smith stuff that'd be greatly appreciated.

polarized lenses are great on water but on snow and winter conditions not so good i feel. You can't see ice that well with them because they cut glare so well, so don't drive with them on! for best all round lense color i'd go with a pink (rose) colored one. They may look kinda elton john style but they work sweet.
