Emerald vs Vr50 Emerald - Snowboarding Forum

aje6890 · 12-21-2012, 01:07 PM

Can anyone tell me the difference between the emerald iridium and the vr50 emerald iridium? I am looking for a versatile lens and the emerald iridium are way too dark. Does anyone know what the vr50 emerald iridium are like and if they are versatile? There is not much info on them and they seem to be hard to find.

Also, Does anyone know where I can buy the vr50 emerald iridium?

Any info you could give me would be appreciated. Thanks.

The only thing I know about the Emerald Iridium lenses for Oakley is that on youtube some guy said they are the most "mirrored" lenses.

I use the Emerald Iridium A-frame lens as my all around goggle, IMO they are very versatile. Up until today they have been my only goggle, and have worked great. I did get a H.I yellow lens as a gift that i'm excited to test out the next time i'm riding with low visibility. Back to topic i'm also unsure of major differences, but I've gotten pretty decent feedback at the Oakley store if you have one locally; and if not just call them and ask for an explanation.
