Very clear

The Onyx colored visor is pictured as a grey visor on line (logical), but it actually is an orange color and fairly translucent-like something that you’d want on a cloudy day. Looks nothing like the picture on line and does not look like it would be good for sunny days. I returned it.

IT WAS SCRATCHED. The way this product is pack from manufacturer is pathetic. This expensive and very fragile piece is packed in a very thin plastic bag. I never saw a bag so thing. The bag itself was ripped and gashed several places. THIS IS ONE PRODUCT THAT SHOULD HAVE ITS OWN CLOTH BAG then places into the poastic bag. BUT IT ISNT. ITS SHAMEFUL. THEN! THEN! GIRO expects u to go out of my way and try to find a Fedex location to print a label. I went to three fedex locations and non of them said they could print the label. I emailed Giro a week ago and NO ONE EVER GOT BACK TO ME! NO ONE. SHAMEFULLL! now Im stuck with a UNUSEABLE SCRATCHED UP helmet shield. I cant use it so Im out $150. Get this, I ordered 2 more of these from Amazon and they were both unuseably scratched too because of the disgraceful product packaging. PATHETIC but at least I could return to amazon easily. I never buy anything from Giro again. Dave C. Stout

What's the difference? Which is the best lens for sunny conditions but going into tree line shade?

I got back into skiing after twenty years of health problems. Back then, I could ski any run at any speed. In those days, helmets were the exception. As fast as equipment allows the average boarder/skier ride, I would never consider going without a helmet. Even if that wasn’t the case, I would ski with this helmet for comfort alone. It’s more comfortable that wearing a beanie and goggles. Speaking of goggles, mine always fogged, no matter how much I paid for them. Or if I wore my glasses under them, my glasses fogged. Or both. With this helmet, I have only fogged twice. Both were while waiting in the lift line after a long and strenuous run where I was sweating. Otherwise, it has been a true game-changer. I have gone out in high wind conditions, snowing heavily and never had an issue. I have the grey helmet and the Onyx lenses. I thought it might not work on bright sunny days, but it is perfect. I have been on the hill for over 60 days over the past fourteen months. Only twice was the light so flat that I thought a fully transparent lens might have helped. On those days, I am better off not skiing. I have top of the line skis, bindings, and softwoods, but the game-changer of getting me on the hill and being safe in most conditions is from having bought this helmet/goggle combination.
