Help!!! I am trying to get a pair of oakley snow goggles for my boyfriend as xmas present and I am totallty new to this topic. Can anyone help me please!!?!?? I will be buying A-frame and they offer so many different choices of lenses that perform well under different conditions but I just want one that would be great under general weather condition - not too sunny, not extremely overcast, more to use for afternoon/evening snowboarding?
Or if I can afford to buy two lenses for different weather conditions, what two should I choose so both sunny days and cloudy/dusk time can be covered too?? thanks!!!!!
Please i want specific answers as reference to oakley lenses models!!! thanks!!!!! ( e.g what is Vr50 pink iridium? what is emerald iridium?
Emerald iridium is a nuetral, grey based lens that has a green mirrored coating.
Anything in the Oakley descriptions that has "iridium" in it, is talking about a mirrored coating.
VR28 black iridium is good for cloudy, moderately sunny days. It has a rose color when looking through it an increases contrast (so you can see the contours of the slopes better).
'
However, if he rides a lot at night, get him a HI Yellow lens. It's great for cloudy, snowy, and night conditions. For BRIGHT sunlight, go with straight Black Iridium (not VR). IT's Oakley's darkest lens and has a mirrored coating.
if he's susceptable to glare, get a polarized lens as this will cut glare.
