I have my REI dividend + 20% coupon coming up in a couple weeks and I want to get a new pair of goggles since I'll be getting like $130 of store credit. I was looking at the Oakley Flight Deck an the Smith I/O 7. They also have Anon M2s and a bunch of other brands. Plus they can get pretty much any pair of goggles from their warehouse shipped to the store. I definitely want a pair of goggles with interchangeable lenses. I've always only had cheapo goggles. My current pair is a few years old and I figured its time to upgrade to a decent pair. Which one should I get?

yea but how do the optics compare to oakley prizm and smith lenses? ease of interchangeability is nice but optics is definitely the most important.

I mean yeah prism lenses can be used for a greater range of conditions imo but at that point why do you need interchangeable lenses? what exactly do you mean by optics anyways?

Optics means the quality/clarity of the lenses. Theres a big difference between the light conditions on a bright sunny day and a cloudy stormy day and I don't think any lense even prizm could handle both scenarios. I ultimately want a pair of goggles where I have a bluebird day lense and an overcast day lense so I can swap them in the parking lot or if the conditions change then on the ski hill.
