Hi all

After my FMA fan-assisted-goggles died on me 2 hours into their first game, I'm thinking about trying the Pyramex I-Force.

Only question now, as in the title.

Anyone tried the amber and can recommend them over the clear lens?

FWIW, I play 70ish% outdoors and 30ish% CQB.

TIA

 
To me yellow/tinted wins over clear.

Enhances vision (don't ask me how cuz I have no idea, I'm too dumb for that. I suppose it has something to do with contrast) and actually shades the eyes from sunlight a tad better than clear lenses, it's not dark lenses levels of protection but it's better than nothing.

 
I'm a big fan of yellow tint for motorcycle use, but I've not tried them for airsoft.  I have clear dual-pane I-Forces (well, one of the many rebrandings of them).

A couple of things I'd note though is that I wouldn't wear any tint in a dark indoor environment (I'm not sure what you mean by CQB); and that I can fog up the I-Forces.

The only things that works for me are fan goggles, or DIY dual-pane goggles.  I-Forces are pretty good, but I'd give yourself a backup option just in case.

 Considering the amount I've meshed you are not the only one. Also to note they do 2 sizes  if you have a slim or broad face too which is worth taking into account.

Amber is good for contrast, and helps in misty conditions.

Clear is the all rounder

 
Thanks everyone for your insights. 

Amber it is then. 

@Rogerborg cqb is indoors, and quite dark where I play. 

Cheers
