Here is some WISDOM for ya
Andrew Weathers: 
These are some great goggles. The lenses are like a car wind shield, making peripheral vision awesome so you can see that crazy dude bonzai'n' down the hill making a b-line for you. Hoever if you have a small head these probably aren't for you, according to my roommate who in 5'6". I'm 6'4"
Nice, but problems
eri2485801: 
The iridium lenses, at least the pink iridium version, has terrible reflections on the inside of the lens. It seems the inside surface is as mirrorlike as the outside. Gave me a headache.These goggles fit nicely without a helmet, but are too tall from the bridge of the nose to the forehead to work well with a helmet. Too bad, cuz otherwise they're very nice (with a non-iridium lens).
Um... Perfect!

I received these goggles after an incredible buy and not trying them on. They fit with, or without a helmet (I wear the r.e.d. Hi-Fi XL). TOTALLY STOKED! the polarized oakley lense is completely worth the price. I'll be rockin these for a long time!!!
Looks awesome, but warn your nose
Broncobeno: 
I have to admit, I never actually took these out on the mountain, so I can't speak for the performance of the lens; however, I'm sure it's great by reading other reviews. The reason: They sit so low and tight on my nose that I can hardly breathe through it. I didn't want to experience what they would feel like after a tiring run on the slopes. I guess a lot of other people don't have this problem (I noticed only one other reviewer who mentioned it), but if you've got any kind of size to your nose, I wouldn't go with these. I know my nose isn't small, but I wouldn't call it abnormally large or anything. I really hate it though, cause the white camo is eaisly the sweetest looking goggles I've seen and everything I've read about Oakley goggles has been top notch. So if you've got a tiny little nose, go for it. If not, I'd go with Smith or Dragon, they seem to fit me pretty well.
Wisdoms
Fur Finley: 
First of all, these are Oakleys, so you can't go wrong. No fogging, great comfort, good quality, and of course good style. I own a pair of these and love them. The lens are crystal clear and you often forget you're wearing them.As for the lens tents, I have a persimmon lens which shows from the chart to allow 61% light through. These seem to be an all around tent for me. Even on the bright sunny days I can get by and the cloudy days work as well. I have an H.I. Yellow lens for cloudier days and night riding. Anything much darker than 61% would be tough on cloudy days, and anything that allows much more than 61% light would be an eye squinting experience on sunny days.To help those who are trying to decide between Crowbars, Wisdoms, and A-Frames hopefully I can help. First, the A-Frames tend to fit a medium to smaller face. They're definately the smallest of the three. Because of this they also have the least amount of peripherel vision when wearing them. However, if you're face is smaller you probably won't notice this anyways.The Crowbars and Wisdoms are made for the medium to larger faces. Both have a bigger field of view than the A-Frames but are slightly differently shaped. The Crowbars and A-frames have the typical goggle shape while the Wisdoms have more of a rounded shape towards the bottom. I find that the Crowbars fit tighter around your nose than the Wisdoms do. So if you have a bigger nose I would go with the Wisdoms.Either way, all three are great goggles, and better yet, if you order from here and they don't fit, you can send them back and change your order without any problem. These guys have GREAT customer service!
