Smith Real Lens Pictures!

[rooftop85]

Hey NS,

I got sick and tired of looking at cartoon pictures of smith lenses when I was trying to figure out what lenses I wanted for my I/O, so I figured I would post pics of all my lenses so people can see what they really look like.

Any questions feel free to P'm me!

 

[pigglywiggly]

thanks for doing this man! Helps a lot

 

[DUKES]

damn those sol-x lenses are fly

 

[pigglywiggly]

But please smith make a murdered lens!

 

[rooftop85]

I'm glad I can help! If anyone wants to know about lens tints or anything just ask. I have every lens except for gold sensor, red sensor, and rc36....... future possible additions!

 

[rooftop85]

those gold sol-x are the darkest lens I have ever put on! They look pretty black in flat light.

 

[a_pla5tic_bag]

someone should do this with oakley. although I guess you can just look at the goggle thread.

 

[tripnip]

thanks man realy helpful. i think im getting the green sol-ex they look sick

 

[.cam.]

Do they have a lens similar to oakley's grey polarized?

 

[rooftop85]

No not really, They have one lens that is polarized and it's only available in certain models. It's a rose copper lens

 

[JumboBum]

Pretty helpful! Thanks man.

 

[DHogg]

very helpful. Next question is where the best place to buy them is?

 

[rooftop85]

if you check out ebay they will have a sol-x lens everyone now and then for like 30-35 and prolens.com is the only place I know with the yellow lens. Smith doesn't even have it on their website

 

[Yung_Gnarley]

they're on the site...

 

[rooftop85]

for the I/O...... where at?

yellow is not the same as gold sensor mirror in case that's what you are thinking.

 

[Dustin.]

Oakley's pictures on their site are pretty good, the ones on Smith's site are terrible though. Everything looks completely clear with some different tinges of color. This helps a ton man, thanks!

 

[japanada]

platinum and ignitor mirrors are both more mirrored when not in direct sunlight.

 

[Stewie4]

you don't have RC36 lense?

 

[rooftop85]

nope not yet.... always looking for a deal though

[IanAvery-Leaf]

[rooftop85]

hahaha! I get the gold Sensor Mirror lenses in on wednesday and then I will have every lens you can get for the I/O.

I'm pretty pathetic, I know!

[T.DUDE]

[Stewie4]

I just noticed your sick quiver in the backround!

 

[Jonny7]

50% smith where ? interested

 

[Jonny7]

damn i meant to PM that

 

[rooftop85]

Finally the Gold Sensor Mirror

I finally have the whole set and I hope this helps a lot of people out on here when it comes to buying lenses. Any questions feel free to ask me and I will post any extra pics you want.

 

[DirtyMick]

How do you like your I/Os? I might go back to smith cause I'm not sure I dig my oakleys

 

[EastCoastSkiier]

Threads. Thanks this is sick!

 

[rooftop85]

I really do love my I/O goggles. I have a hard time finding a goggle that fits my nose properly. Oakley and Electric both cut off all air to my nose and it makes it really hard to breath. With smith I have never had that problem. I would recommend them to anyone who has had the same problem as me, but of course always get what fits you the best.

 

[DirtyMick]

Yeah my cbars strap is super short or something cause they're mad tight on my helmet. They press on my face a bit too much and leave me with a mean goggle mark after a full day.
Once I get some cash I might opt for the I/Os, I've got a smith helmet so it's probably a better idea.

 

[IanAvery-Leaf]

wear them under your helmet

 

[Stewie4]

YOu SIR! need to get the murdered out lens!!!

 

[DirtyMick]

I tried. It's uncomfortable. I have no idea how everyone else seems to put up with it.

 

[Stewie4]

^^^ gget a bigger helmet or one that doesnt cover the strap (my holt doesnt cover my strap)

 

[rooftop85]

Hahaha yeah that would look nice but the gold sol-x is so dark it looks black in flat light

 

[tripnip]

how dark are the green sol-x lens compared to like the gold sensor mirror?

 

[rooftop85]

the gold sensor mirror are a pretty light lens when it comes to tint. I would wear them on low light days. The green sol-x is a much darker lens designed for bright sunlight. does this help?

 

[JRyder]

Is there one?

 

[TonyMacaroni]

too sick

 

[rooftop85]

nope not that I know of

 

[Mr_pretzel]

What would you say is the best all around lens?

 

[RudyGarmisch]

Anyone else suffering huge fogging issues with these goggles?

 

[japanada]

my I/O would for whenever I wore my bern, the lack of venting on the helmet led to them alllllways fogging after any sort of hiking. Without my helmet, there were no probs.

 

[alexg1687]

threads. thanks heaps

 

[Mr_pretzel]

Never.

Only the top of the goggle if i have them on the top of my helmet.
