About as versatile a "non-sun" lens as any Oakley produced.
Hides the eyes better than the clears (ruby and Ti), it's still just light enough to work nicely indoors. A particularly fine evening concert lens.

A good middle-of-the-road lens in terms of light transmission. Obviously meant for overcast days, they provide enough contrast to be suitable any part of day as long as the sun isn't out.

Only worn this a couple of times as the glasses which these are installed (Why 8.0) are my dads. Noticed it felt more comfortable wearing them indoors in a bright environment than outdoors during the afternoon (probably due to the contrast). Not a bad set of lenses, though for outdoor use I'd think probably early morning or evening.

I've worn this lens in the new Why 8.0 Polished Gold model. It's a nice low light lens with a bronze tint as you'd expect. Best for evening through dusk, and definitely not mid-day, as the VR50 series is about as transmissive as Titanium Clear.

Very nice to look through, easy on the eyes but not very dark. Looks realy classy as well. Definitely worth 4 skulls!
