ebay, but be sure and ask the seller to confirm it is a double lens.
nothing on the bay right now... all the usual online sites have them at the same price $70...
it's only my inner lens that's crack - about 1.5" long starting from the bridge going straight up... it's annoying but not unusable... so i might just run 'em as is, unless the crack spreads or they start fogging badly...
I picked up a pair of Splices this weekend and am looking for a good price on a H.I Yellow as well. I bought the Fire lens for sunny days and it came with a Persimmon, but not the H.I. Persimmon. I couldn't get US Outdoor to let me pay the $30 difference to swap the Persimmon for the HIY.
Anybody think it's NOT worth buying a H.I. Yellow and think I should just use the Persimmon? I really don't know Oakley lenses well, this is my first pair in a long time.
i am selling a pair of crowbars with HI Y lenses for 40 + shipping.
just saying...

condition? scratches? anything?
they are in pretty good condition. a few scratched here and there, but nothing that obstructs view. they are about 2 years old, and i never really wear them.

Thanks Ado, that's what I wanted to hear. Whether or not there was a noticeable difference. Hood is notorious for low vis, so a good low light lens is essential. Sounds like this one's worth it......
I wear a yellow lens in my crowbars during flat light days at Meadows and it is 100x better than my fire lens. Still have a hard time seeing bumps in the snow some days (especially in Heather canyon). I believe Hood may have some of the worst light issues I have ever encountered while riding. The sky and snow just seem to meld together some days.
Huge fan of pink iridium in low light. Just sayin'.
Have you tried HI yellow? If pink is better I may have to try that. Anything that will help my vision in the soup here at Hood.kirkenplop said: Huge fan of pink iridium in low light. Just sayin'.
Oh yeah? Have you ever used the HI yellow to compare?
HI Yellow is the official lens of the PNW... ;) lol
that's where I bought my HI Yellow lens last year (Hood Meadows) :p
pink is more versatile, hi yellow is better in low light.
i think i am gonna start rocking clear at night, and a hi yellow for overcast. hi yellow fucks with my eyes too much under the lights.
Persimmon fucks with my eyes in all light.
I think I'll see if the shop I bought them from, will give me 20% off a HI yellow. I think they will, they gave it to me on the goggs and fire lens.
BTW, I wore them for the first time today. Kick ass goggle and sooooo comfy.
Hey Ricky,
How was Meadows today? I am going up all day Sunday.
hi yellow and hi persimmon own hi pink and regs persimmon. hi pink gives you lots of reflection of your own face which hi per. doesnt. hi yellow is just better when its so over cast.
