OO Black Iridium Polarized Vs Vr28 Black Iridium Polarized

[discostu]

Thanks for that comparison. I love my vr28's but after seeing that, I'd like to try the double oo's.

No problem at all, glad it helps and I would highly recommend the OO to anyone!

I like VR28s but I find myself taking a while to acclimatise to the contrast, whereas with OOs or G30s you're pretty much good to go.

Here are a few other threads about the same topic. Hope it helps. None of them have photos though.

There was a sunglass hut exclusive Holbrook with matte black frame and OO red iridium polarized lenses, model oo9102-33.

As for OO BIP vs VR28 BIP, I never had vr28 and I can't comment on the technical differences, but I really enjoy OO BIP. Nice rose base, not too dark or too light (transmission), and can't see your eyes from the outside, unlike vr28 BIP.

how much better is the OO BIP at eye hiding than the VR28 BIP?

Which one is which?

Which one is which?

The OO BiP is the more natural looking tint in the X Squared frame and the VR28 in the Pit Boss appears 'browner'. Both have the black iridium coating so will hide the eye as well as each other I would say.

OO BIP hides the eyes better.

Now you have an answer in three threads. Woohoo!

I have VR28BiP and 00BiP for my Radars.
Since getting the 00 a year ago, I've not used the VR.
I find I appreciate the "brighter" contrast; it helps me read the road surface better (cycling).

For me:
ooBIP Great in bright sunshine, OK in overcast. Better anti reflective.
VR28 Good in bright sunshine, GREAT in overcast days and evening. Like driving with them.
