Pyramex I-Force Goggles - Which Lens?

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
