Smith Goggle user's.....

Hey Matt,
Your gonna get a variety of reply's on this one. I've been wearing goggles for over 10 yrs. now, I wear one, and carry two others, (ya gotta love that tunnel bag on the REV's ) - Yellow , Clear , and Smoke. Generally cover all light conditions.
Now last year I bought the Pro-Vue Goggles, Smith, non- prescription , and I got the 7 lens that snap on and off.
I love 'em!!!! I got yellow, orange, blue, green, rose, grey,,,,,,etc…. snap 'em on and off thru out the day. $100 for the complete package.
Not much difference between yellow and orange - ok for evening / dusk time.
I like the blue. Green is ok for semi-bright days. Rose (and blue) is good for flat light days.
I got the quik-strap setup. I wear the Pro-vue's, then also keep a extra pair with a full strap incase the quik-strap lets go, (never has for me, goin' on my third helmet with them, but ya just never know) then depending on the weather I'll also carry an extra pair of Smith's with a real dark smoke lens for super sunny days.

But..if you start out with Clear for night, yellow or blue for flat light , and Smoke for sunny days, you should have it covered.

I am going to the sno-x style helmet and goggles this year and will be getting some Smith Snow Warp TI goggles, but I want to have some spare lens's for varying light conditions or in case of fogging, snow in the goggles, etc. Which ones do you guys use? The goggles comes with the dual PMT Sensor Mirror lens, which seems like it will work for the majority of riding conditions. I definately want a clear lens (dual, ofcourse) for night riding and was also considering a yellow tinted lens. Here is Smith's lens selections and descriptions.

Thanks in advance!!!

Matt I have been wearing Smith goggles for over 15 years now and would never go back to shield... Anyway, I use clear lens all the time as the clear will allow the most light thru lens and gives the clearest vision. This is a fact and with all Smith goggles there is a card that comes in box that tells each lens and how much light that lens allows thru... I like the new Rose colored ones for only daytime use but for night anything other than clear is taking a chance and is also illegal in MOST EVERY state. Last year in NY they started writing tickets for guys wearing smoke or colored lenses/shields at night. Think about it, you can't avoid what you can't see...
Also get a Roko Quick strap they work really good and will save your goggles from getting wet when you stop for a break on trail...
