Anyone own a pair of these? Opinions? What would be a good all around lens color? I'm leaning towards amber.

I have the amber, the gray was too dark. They work pretty decent, but I switched to some polarized prescriptions - way more $$ but worth every penny. For the price thought the cocoons are o.k. almost cheap enough to try 'em to see what you think.

I didn't like the Cocoons, but now I have found these:

So far, so good and the price is right.

i have a pair i keep in the boat for people who always "forget their glasses" they are the dark grey, nobody has ever complained. i personally use the h30 sports with the perscription inserts they are the best thing i have ever come across for those who need glasses!

I have both the gray and amber. gray i for bright sunny days and amber is for overcast or dusk.

I like them better than fitovers and price isn't too bad.

Got them both for less than $50.00 at https://www.apairofshades.com.

Like them myself.
Used them a full year now doing evrything under the sun.
Fit right over my glasses, light an block out junk from the side, light,wind, bugs...
Do the job fine for me.
My lens are darker shade of something, an then again not so dark as they would be called medium. LOL
Work good give'em an A+

Plus make me look older an wiser like the folks we see driveing home from the eye doctor.

I love how they stay put. I've been in Canada & on Lake Erie, and I often even forget I have them on. Mine are real dark.

I have the dark gray lenses and I really like mine. They are light and comfortable, inexpensive and do the job. The only negative is missing fish to partners with better optics, I really don't see everything underwater. Cocoon sharing more or less. And people ask me if I just got back from an eye exam.

Thanks everyone! Ordered the amber lens slim model so hopefully my dad won't look like (quite as) much a goofball in our pictures this year.

I have both the Amber and Grey Lens Cocoon Fit-Over Sunglasses.I like the Amber in low light ,high overcast days and the Grey lens for the bluebird days.I use to get expensive sunglasses,but kept loosing them,scratching them etc.. So my wife being an Optician I get Cocoon's for $12 each!

I have a pair of FosterGrant Fish Eyes. Amber. They serve the purpose well for me.
