Polorized vs Regular Lens

Why is that polorized lens's are clear and less reflective than regular lens and is the O-Frame black iridium the same black iridium as the crowbar (just making sure so I don't buy dark grey)

if you buy the black iridium for o-frame it should be the same as the crowbars. only the shape changes not the lens itself

when comparing oakley to oakley... black iridium is black iridium.
Polarized films eliminate 99.9% of glare, thus defeating the purpose of a mirrored lens (you thought it was just for looks, didn't you?) hence why the mirror coating on a polarized lens is less extreme.
also, don't buy polarized lenses for skiing unless you're doing glacier skiing in the summer, you can't tell the difference between ice and snow.

ehhh not really, if you do a lot of skiing above tree line then a polarized lens would help also.

regular lense to me are better. there is a less chance that the film will come off if your in the subcumstances that you need to wipe your polorized goggles.

the polorization is much better and worth the money! they look so much better. if you take good care of them you should never even worry about it coming off
