Visually stunning and my favorite color Oakley has ever released! Nice fusion between the emerald and slate iridiums. Light transmission is perfect for me, and I find this comfortable to wear both indoors and outdoors. Nice iridium mirror, which hides the eyes well in a lot of conditions, except when it's very sunny and the light creeps in from the top or sides. Still, it hides the eyes better than most lenses with similar or even lower transmission rates.

Many think that these are too light to wear during sunny conditions, but I mostly disagree... I think the only times these don't offer enough protection is during the early morning or late afternoon of a clear and sunny day -- when the sun is near the horizon.

I tried these on in a pair of Juliets and I immediatly asked what they were and knew that I had to have them. I called up Oakley and the said I can't get them. Long story short, my newly purchased Juliets are there getting the lenses and earsox that are associated with them.

I love this lens because of the neutral base, I can't stand amber based lenses. The iridium seems to do most of the work for the reduction in light but a very nice lens to look thru and at.

Emerald Slate are my top 1 lens... Are just perfect...
from the inside you have that light blueish or purple tint, that feels awsome for the eyes, from the outside you have that wonderful emerald green with something of yellow.
In a first look its looks too light but after a fill minutes with it you just cant take them off, the polished frame of ichiros juliet make the perfect match with this lens.. even when I go out with my OO Blue Iridium ichiro, my finito or my 1st gen Red Ruby... People don't turn as much as they turn for the Emerald slate... and when you wear it doesn't the lens don't look as light as they are so when the sun is going down or we have a cloudy day and Im wearing (perfect conditions for them) people ask me "isn't too dark for sunglasses?" when I let them try out the first thing they can say after the time of shock... is "where can I get those glasses?"
AWSOME DUDE!!!!!!

one of my favorite lenses. whenever I watch a baseball game or need to go somewhere that I gotta look decent or formal, this is what I wear. The style could be accepted in both formal or rugged applications

I have a tendency to forget about how much I like these lenses. They are on the light side, but they do a great job in a range of lighting conditions. I wouldn't suggest them for a bright sunny day, but they perform better than you would expect. The real strength however is in the look they give. They are a silvery-green that is just amazing. I would wear them much more if I didn't have such a paranoia towards care of my Ichiro Juliets. Fans of dark lenses will probably find these slightly better than Ti Clear or Slate, but might not appreciate them from a blockage point of view.
