Anyone running polarized lenses? I'd like to find a good set of goggles that have polarized lenses and yellow lenses to swap out. Any ideas?

Polarized lenses are good for any weather. Even overcast days can generate glare.

Yea, I got a few pair thanks for telling me that. I didn't know I couldn't wear them on overcast days because of the glare...

They are hard to find online compared to regular clear lenses.

Pro-Grip goggles with polarized, light sensitive lenses are great. I'm happy with their performance in all light conditions.

Here are my 2 cents on Polarized lenses.  it's great for driving in a car because it eliminated the reflection of the windshield.  Great for fishing because they eliminate the reflection of the surface water allowing you to see bubba gump hiding under the lilly pad.

Now, for other sports, these reflections give your brain cues and clues about the terrain that become second nature to you.  Things like the reflection on wet grass, the shiny surface of moist dirt or mud, and the shiny rock or branch on the trail.  These are all good bits of info I like to know when riding the trails.  Trail riders are constantly doing a scan of the terrain and making small, subtle adjustments accordingly.  Polarized lenses will eliminate (hide) these small bits of info - I really don't see where they would help.  What reflections in the woods do you want to eliminate?  Aside from the glare of the fender of the guy you are following - not much!
