Depends on the lighting at your hill.

go on oakleys website and look at the lense compostions. the fire and black iridium only let in like 13-14% of available light, thus are good for sun and bright lights. the H.I lenses let in a lot more, like 30% or something.

My guess is that you'll probably be ok, but doing a lot of night skiing you might just want to buy a clear lense.






I feel bad for people who don't drink, cause when they wake up in the morning, thats the best the're going to feel all day

theyre pretty bad for night skiing. If your hill is really lit up they'll work but you'll probably end up just putting them up when your skiing and wearing them on the lift to keep your face warm if the lightings pretty shitty. Theyre amazing in the sun though.

you just have to pop the lense out from the sides of the goggles. there are little knobs where the other lenses clip on.

The wisdom lenses are just as interchangeable as the A frames. Use your provided silk to hold the lense while you pull the frame away from it. There will be 5 holes on top, 1 on each of the lower corners, and 3 around the bridge of the nose. Hope that helps.
