This lens is a great all-a-rounder. I have other pairs of oakleys with blk irid plzd and vr28 blk irid plzd. I have to say that the ones I've used the most are the bronze polarized. I like the fact that when you walk indoors you don't have to take them off. People can see your eyes and walking into medium-lit stores doesn't hinder vision at all. I've had gold iridium plzd in the past and i like these better. I live in the tropics where it's extremely sunny and the 15% transmission has always been sufficient. I've put them away so I can get some use of my blk and blk VR28s. I want to buy a gray or light grey polarized next because leaving them on even when indoors is convenient. and safer.

I have an old pair (6 years+) of Unknown's with the bronze polarised lens and they are my "go to" glasses for spotting striped bass on the salt flats of Cape Cod. No other lens I own lets me see fish the way these do and I'm pissed that they are loosing their anti-glare coating on the inside. Oakley, bless 'em, say they'll give me 60% off a new pair of shades with a trade-in but the Unknown's are now dis-continued, so it'll have to be be the Minute 2.0's... shame as I loved my Unknown's!

Very nice lens, really brightens up the outside world. Very easy on the eyes. This is my first pair of Oakley sunglasses and it's hard to take them off. The original lens was Black Iridium but I switched to Bronze Polarized for better contrast. It's amazing to look into the sky because you can see clounds that aren't visible to the naked eye. Clouds actually look 3-d.

A nice conservative option for polarized. They work very well in medium light and are passable in the brightest of conditions. I prefer gold iridium or tungsten iridium for full sun, but these do the job. They do not hide the eyes very well if you're into that sort of thing. These seem to be the go to option for polarized brown frames. I would like to see more gold and tungsten.

This is by far my all-around favorite lens. I was able to pick up the SI Desert Gascans from a friend, and I wasn't too happy with the regular Bronze lens. I swapped them out for the Polarized version, and it made all the difference in the world. Bronze Polarized increases contrast and reduces eye-strain in every possible lighting condition, save night time. I prefer the lenses for overcast, rain, snow, dawn, and dusk. I'll fall back to my Black Iridium Polarized if I know it'll be just bright, but the bronze is what I take for uncertain or varying conditions. Regarding the color comparison to Gold Iridium, there is a definite, more pronounced brownish tint to everything that you see. Gold Polarized would be the midpoint between Bronze and Black.
