The contrast on this lens is great, and it really brightens up a cloudy day and makes everything pop. I can't agree with those who say this can work on a bright day though. There is just not enough sun protection for that. Also, it's not a very good looking lense from the outside. If you are looking for a great contrast lens on cloudy days and don't really care about appearances, then it's perfect. Otherwise, you may want to look at a different lense.

I am presently using the King's Camo Radar Pitch (Woodland) which comes with VR28 lens. The VR28 is a versatile lens that helps you adapt to changing light conditions. It is neither too dark nor does it transmit too much light and as such, can be worn in both bright sunny conditions as well as cloudy conditions.

If you are looking for lens that essentially reduces glare in very bright conditions or lens that helps you face direct sunlight then these lens may not be adequate.

These really are a low-light lens. I can't say that I've ever liked them due to their niche use. They have a rose tint to them, and since they are best suited for dawn or dusk, a time which there is a rose color to everything anyway, they just result in overkill. VR28 Black Iridium is a better all-around choice. It's only slightly darker, and the iridium coating blocks so much more glare...

I ordered a set of Strike 2.0 ballistic glasses about 2 weeks ago for the shooting range. Having used shooting glasses in the past with a "plain" yellow tint, I got a VR28 lens to go with the Strikes. I just got back from the range today and all I can say is WOW. For contrast and detail, both of which you want during shooting, the VR28s are by far the best glasses I have ever used.

This is my all-time favorite base tint. It really makes texture changes pop out so cycling is a breeze with them. They work equally well on the road or on the trails. I used to ride with G30 lenses and when on the dirt, everything would blend together and I'd miss all sorts of roots & ruts... very dangerous. Then I tried VR28 and was able to pick out every subtle difference in road texture. Unlike the Bronze base tints, VR28 enhances contrast without making the world look hazy. This is a great lens color for all but the brightest of days. Definitely not for the fashion conscious, but the best lens if you're looking for true utility. Add one of the Iridium coatings or polarizing (or both) if you need a little more sun protection.
