It's time for a change

These sunglasses change quite well in response to outdoors brightness, especially when there is direct UV light hitting the lens. They change less when behind UV blocking window glass, so if they are not dark enough, leave them on outside for several minutes, and then put them on when you drive. I've used them at Steamboat when the light has been blindingly intense getting on and off the chairlift, and have been very happy with their eye protection and darkening ability. I have walked into the house when outside in bright light and then looked at the lenses and was suprised at how dark they get. I am a bicycler and skier and don't leave home without them. They are my favorite all around Oakleys so far.
