disclaimer: i did attempt to search bar but didn't feel like sifting through the countless crowbar threads.

I have never been too up to date with goggles so i was just curious about what lenses you use in certain conditions.

post an approximate weather condition and your lense of choice for that condition.

thanks

for crowbars:

sunny- black irid
medium light/sunnier conditions- blue irid
low/flat light- hi-yellow
night- clear
best all around lens for every possible condition is hi-persimmon imo, if you want one lens to do it all then that's it

yea, i was thinking about just getting one lense because mostly ski in the day so i will for sure consider. would the above all around choice be good when its cloudy/poor light?

hi-persimmon is technically designed for low light but i found it works for everything

check out the different lenses, then scroll down to see the light transmission number, the lower it is the darker the lens.

i was actually really surprised with oakley's standard persimmon lense.  works really well at night and on those grey stormy days.
could be better for the day time, but the hi persimmon has a little glaze to cute glare.  that would probably be a sick lense.
