Best standard lens?

[Sport Rider]

Ignoring Polarized lenses and Prizm lenses, what is the best standard iridium lens available today? How do they compare to the Prizm lenses? Planning to buy a pair of Rx Oakleys and I'm open to all lenses. Just prefer something that's an excellent daily lens....which for me, can be colored.

What suggestions do you have?

I am partial to the VR28 Black Iridium. But I believe there are some threads out there that really delve into this subject.

Thanks. I assumed there were but I did a search and came up with nothing.

I usually match the color of my lens to what i'm wearing

What color do you want everything to be when you look through the lenses?

That's a good question. I have Violet Iridium, and those are almost yellow. I also have Prizm Roads, Prizm Ruby and DWP, which are rose or amber. I probably prefer my Jade Iridium lenses which have a gray base.

So for these, I probably want a gray base or a blue base.

Ruby is blue when you look through it.

"Standard" is pretty subjective and is different from one person to the next.
I'd say my standard would be Prizm Daily Polarized, Prizm Sapphire Polarized, Prizm Deep Water...I mean, I've always enjoyed those, but may be different for someone else.

My favorite non prizm lens is VR28 black iridium, followed closely by g30 polarized.
