DIFFERENCE IN SHIELDS

There is a difference in shields! Yellow will really brighten and make things in your peripheral range come alive...we use these for skeet shooting...and they work great when it is dull gray misty gray outside...and even fog lights are yellow. the dark smoke is like wearing sunglasses,,,nice till night time or dusk when you can hardly see anything...iridium is great as well...buy one and you can always use it in place of a clear, light smoke or dark smoke. They actually work...You should be able to get you glasses on after you put your helmet on and raise your face shield...if not HJC makes different pads for thier helmets...

HMMM

How do you explain...iridium is like smoke...I think that it reflects more of the UV rays than a smoke or dark smoke does allowing your eyes to actually see more. Like Oakleys protecting you from both UVA and UVB, the Iridium is like that...it's really difficult to explain...like the difference between rose and yellow. In Sicily the sky/background was nearly all gray, overcast so the yellow glasses went on, when the sun was out and the sky was blue I swithed out my UVEX lenses to dark gray. The cost of one shield is worth you to invest in. I don't care for looking at them from the outside but the inside looking out is great. Ther is also now a tape that you can wear on the top third of your shield...I'm not to excited about tilting my head to use that portion though..
They do cut the glare...

60's colors

EWWWWWW!!! Not a good thing! I'm not into those kinda trips! I like the Areneiline rush when you stop ans see trees hundreds of feet below and perhaps a river...or like in Northern Colorado the waterfalls and creeks/small rivers flowing under the highways and the trees...everything smess so great that youjust can't get enough of it. You just want to keep deep breathing the great clean air, finally forcing yourself to quit before you pass out...I sat by a turnout, and finally started walking to stretch my legs...I love the fresh air and freedom, greens, blues, the sound of water...oh yeah, polarized sunglasses...huh?
