I have decided to go with the Sphere XP swim mask & now my next question is what color lenses should I get. Just a little background, I usually swim in the evening in an outdoor pool for the summer, and when the weather gets cooler I will be swimming in an indoor pool, and when i finally compete it will most likely be in the ocean (I live in Southern California). So with the locations that I swim in what would your suggestion be for the color of lenses?

I raced with the clear lenses for a while, but found that I was having problems sighting into the sun. I bought a pair of tinted lenses. I thought it would be bad when I was swimming in the evening, but they were fine. Now, when I tried sighting into the sun with the tinited lenses, they were just a little better than the clear. So get which ever pair makes you look the coolest IMHO

the tinted lenses would make it tough to see in the darker waters of a lake. But I was wrong -- with tinted lenses I have no problem seeing a pair of feet in front of me and I can even see well at dusk/dawn with them.
