Are they any good? They look like crobars. I can get them for wicked cheap from work.. so i'm pondering getting some.

Anyone know about what the lenses are like?

I saw someone at my resort with a pair. They just looked like a cheap pair of goggles off ebay with a lense that isnt that cool.

i meant they didnt "look" that cool. I know that is one of the most important factors in buying outwear and gear, but to me they just werent very appealing. I might have just seen one of the crappier lenses, i dont really know much about them, except this lense and frame just didnt look like they could compare with crowbars.

that statement is pretty contradictory. and alot of people care how a lense looks. why do you think so many people have mirrored lenses and continue to wear them at night or in whatever condition? its just how people are, they care about what they look like and want to look cool. Well almost everyone anyways..

Haha, yup. Lens is singular, and lenses is plural. There is no "lense"

They are retarded if they wear mirrored sun lenses at night. I'm sorry, but thats just dumb.

The only explanation could be that they have no night lenses, which is totally understandable, because even I dont.

and I'm coming to think that "they" is YOU... not me or most other people.

the lenses are really good i've used them 18 + days and no scratches or any thing, the one thing is that you can't see a thing in flat light.
