I don't think they're gold iridium... you can see through it.

It's hard to tell, mainly because of the lighting/glare. I can't really tell if the reflection on the side is the lens' mirroring or simply the flash.

It MIGHT be the G30/VR28/VR28 Polarized. I can't really tell. You can't see through heavily mirrored lenses like gold iridium though.

I'm going to guess G30, cause I have a VR28 and I think it's darker than that, but the lighting in this picture makes it hard to tell.

I don't think it is the g30/vr28 because neither of those lens have a reflective coating, just a darker tint. So, I would say it has to be some type of iridium, and gold would be my best bet as well.

I'm going to have to go with H.I. Persimmon...

pink iridium is more reflective (all the iridium lenses are very reflective).. the only other option I see is G30 which has a similar coloring to the hi persimmon but is a bit darker...

minor correction here..

almost all of oakley's lenses have an iridium coating to reduce glare.. the 3 with iridium in the name are more reflective than the others [fire, black and pink].. i also have a pair with pink iridium lenses and they are much more reflective than the pictured goggle [especially in lower light].

The thing here is that the background is white. Put your Pink Iridiums 1ft from a white wall and you'll see right thru them all day long.

but they wouldn't be so clear where the wall isn't showing... i.e. around the vents up top where you can clearly see the foam that separates the double lens.
