Crowbars, Polarized in a non-polarized frame?

I know its not supposed to work in sunglasses, according to Oakley at least, even though its possible. Would it be doable for snow goggles, considering how flexible they are I cant see it being a problem. Anybody done it?

I had no idea they had different frames for polorized and non polorized glasses. seems unecesary to me.

I'm not sure if the frames are different, but they sell crowbars and polarized crowbars so I'm not sure.

Polarization simply means that they seperate the light waves further. Unless the lense shape is different to accomodate the different technology, the frames should be exactly the same, because the frame has nothing to do with it.

As far as i know it has nothing to do with the shape/size of the lens it's to do with with laminates that coat the lenses. So yes, the lenses would be inter-changeable. also it would not be in oakley's best interest to produce 2 different shape frames for the same model goggle, that would be an expensive exercise.

they are not interchangeable for regular sunglass frames...but they are interchangeable for half-jackets since the glasses were designed to be able to change lenses. this might be the case for goggles too since they are designed to be able to change lenses
