Getting a pair of Gascans and can't decide....

[Deleted member 24]

Have you worn polarized lenses before? Some people complain that they get headaches with polarized lenses. You may want to try on a pair before committing to a pair that you may regret.

As an avid Oakley wearer for about 15 years, I can tell you the polarization CAN cause headaches for some. I am one of them. I have very few polarized pairs because the headaches I get from wearing them.

Go for a custom made pair with some nice icons or a limited edition one (Take a look at the Black Flying Tiger Edition), you can always swap out the lenses depending on lighting conditions.

I thought I was going nuts b4 I figured out it was polarization that was screwing me up...whole lot happier with non polar and happy to know I am not alone

I'm sort of leaning toward the Polished White with Fire Iridium lens and Team Orange icons or the Matte Black with Grey Polarized lens and Team Red icons.

I was seriously considering the Polished White w/ fire iridium and a team orange icon for awhile before I settled on the custom combo I'm after... That gets my vote for sure.

For custom, I have always loved blue icons and ice lenses...to me it just pops. If you go with red icons, go with ruby lenses.

So which is darker. Warm Grey or Grey Polarized?

i need to correct myself, grey polarized lets in 17% of light, it's the black iridium polarized that let's in 9%, i got confused!

i would go for a black history text with an text icon and positive red lenses.....

you can probably order that or you can try to get a real rare white text gascan.

than it´s not important which lenses are in there those are dope!!!!!!!!

I think I've decided on the Polished White frame with the Fire Iridium lenses and the Team Orange icons. Reading on Oakley's website, Fire Iridium has 16% light transmission while the Ruby Iridium has 14% light transmission. Which lenses would you choose? I've got Fire Iridium lenses in my old Square Wire 2.0 frames so I know how they look and feel.

If you're going with Orange icons, go with the fire lenses. I think Ruby would would look better with red icons.
