Easton E-pro Interchangeables

Thinking about getting some of the Easton E-pro's. Anybody have any idea on what the different colored lenses are used for? Blue, Silver Smoke, and Orange.

From one of many websites:

"The 100% UV protective, shatter-resistant polycarbonate lenses are interchangeable to allow for customization."

But do the different colors offer any functionality or are they just for looks?

The official website says nothing other than what I quoted above, so apparently it is just for looks.

I use Tifosi sunglasses (made for bicyclists and sold in bike shops). They have interchangeable lens. I've found the yellow ones to be good on days with a high thin overcast or in very hazy conditions. The clear ones are good for keeping bugs out of your eyes when riding a bike -- but of no particular use on a softball field.

I don't know. Some of these Texas softball fields in late spring have hordes of bugs in all varieties! They may come in useful here!

Did you know Tifosi backwards is "is of it???"

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I looked into these glasses and picked up a pair for $20. They just arrived today, and holy CRAP do the blue lenses light everything up! anythingxtreme.com is selling the navy and silver for $25, and the grey for $20. Not too shabby.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
