Low light lenses - anon

I'm thinking about getting some spare lenses for really bad light conditions.

frames are anon figments

looking on the anon website it looks like 'red ice' or just 'yellow' are the best bets. The anon lense visualiser is pretty useful but I thought I may as well ask in case anyone had a strong opinion on which gives the best visiblity in greybird / white out conditions. (I know it's always gonna be pretty shitty in fog but obv I want the best that is possible)

+ frames are from 2 seasons ago. Will they have changed at all?

Thanks in advance guys

yellow will be the best for low light/night riding because it brightens everything up nicely and lets the most light through.

thanks

yeah that's what I thought but then the website says these red ice ones are 80% VLT while the yellow are 75.

I guess I'll just flip a coin.

The lens shape is still the same.

Red Ice and Green Tea mirror are great for low light conditions and will still be fine if the sun pokes out a little. Clear and Yellow would be your best bet obviously for storms and/or night skiing, but aren't as versatile as the other two mentioned
