Oakley Wisdom Goggle Replacement Lenses allow you to customize to any condition on the hill. From blazing bluebird days to the dark depths of a 4-day blizzard, you'll find a lens to protect your eyes while revealing every hidden feature on the hill. An eye bunker for ice storms, the Wisdom's amplified lens dimensions extend the range of peripheral and downward vision beyond those of conventional goggles.
Bottom Line: If you're not so good about putting your goggles away in their stow bag, or just want to customize to the day's conditions, replacement lenses are the call.
These are great for bluebird days. Just that it is a real pain sometimes popping the lenses in and out. Got to have clean paws too, so the insides don't scratch. Should invest in a different pair of wisdom googles, not any with iridium because they rock you about $150, buy the non iridium and then buy these lenses separate. Plus you'll now have a back-up orange permission lens for semi cloudy days.
Own both the Titanium Clear and Fire Iridium lenses. Haven't gotten the chance to use the Fire's yet but the Titanium clear are pretty good for overcast days. Would've like some HI or some else rather than the Clear one but it came with the goggles when I bought them.
Changing lenses is a real pain in the ass. Would not recommend doing them while on the mountain. However, if you change them frequently, you'll probably get the hang on swapping them out pretty quickly. Make sure you have your goggle bag though.
These lenses are great for those gnarly days with low lighting or heavy snow. Theyre also really cool at night if you can ride where they have lights. You must take your time to pop these puppies in. And please use your goggle bag to wipe them down.
we all know the black iriduim works good in bright sun, thats self evident, but how does it look???? im crazy about completley reflective lenses and this is the next best thing besides a fire lens. in the sun it looks silver and there is just a tiny bit of transparency
I have the Wisdoms in two lens colors: Fire and Persimmon. Fire looks awesome and is definitely the goggle to sport on a sunny day. However the Persimmon lens is nothing but simply amazing. They are great on any days that aren't blue bird. They amplify light at night and just flat out rock.
The switching out of the lens takes a little time to get used to. Not the easiest thing to do but once you get it, you should be okay.
I bought my Oakley Wisdom goggles a few years ago and they were always perfect. - Never once fogged up. - But I scratched them.. - and when looking for a replacement set of goggles I went for style over substance and bought a set of Anon goggles. - Those things ruined a 4ft powder day at Mt.Baker... - they fogged up as soon as I got there and never cleared up. - I spent most of the day skiing in heavy snow with no goggles on. - The first thing I did when I got home was to buy a replacement lens for my Oakleys - and they are perfect again.
Once you get oakley goggles it's over. Nothing else will do. I've been upgrading to the polarized lenses and I'm not disappointed. If you don't have them, get'em
I bought this lens to replace a HI Persimmon because I wanted even more contrast in flat light. I was not disappointed. I haven't found another lens that is as good in overcast or snowy days.
I agree w. Flynn's review. It's not easy to switch lenses. I wouldn't switch lenses while on the mountain.
The "High Intensity" lens from Oakley is the best flatlight eyewear I have used to date. It brings contrast to broken suface conditions. The lens will allow you make out subtle differences in untracked snow so that you don't float off into space with vertigo.
The lenses are hard enough to take out and put in that you will think twice before changing them, however they are very secure once set in place. They are great looking (although flashy) and are tinted enough that both full sun and low ceiling are comfortable. Be prepared to pay for Oakley clarity.
I use these for snowboarding and snowmobiling in the backcountry of the central and northern Sierra's. These goggles, especially the high intensity, for low-light and flat-light conditions, are by far the best goggle I have ever used. Normally in flat light conditions it is difficult to judge differences in terrain, these goggles make the difference. Of course you have to pay a premium for this, but I think its well worth it.
I got a pair of Wisdom Goggled with the basic Persimmon lens and loved them all except for the fact that the original lens wasn't reflective (Iridium coated) so i ordered up a pair of the Gold Iridium's and love em, they are awesome in mid to high light conditions and the Iridium helps a ton with glare. (and they look a heck of a lot cooler than the persimmon...) all in all a great upgrade!
I have the Wisdoms in a fire lens and a persimmon lens. The fire is awesome on sunny days but in the shadows at the end of the day it is pretty hard to see well.
I have used the Oakley Wisdom lenses for three winters in all types of conditions and the Blue Iridium is definitely the best all around. Great in flat light, awesome in the trees, and they are always durable.
I've been past due for a pair of lenses. I feel your gear is a direct reflection of how good you rip. These lenses help me out with the "who's that guy?" crowd. Thanks and see ya soon!!
