For what application?
Fishing in stained water - green mirror
Driving - gray

Blue and green mirror are both for bright conditions. Check the Costa website for explanations of the verious tints. I prefer green but blue & green are both nearly the same to me.

I prefer grey for daily use and most fishing. Prefer the green mirror for sight fishing.

i personally wear Blue Mirrors all the time, except for sight fishing. Then I go to Greens. I wear mine everyday for driving and whatever else. I don't leave the house without my sunglasses.

Green polarized glass for freshwater lakes. Blue polarized glass for saltwater. I just bought a pair and did a bit of research. I went the the Costa Blackfin 580G and freaking love them! Been an Oakley guy forever.

Copper for all around use, blue or green for sunny days, gray for cloudy days.

I like the 580G Green Tint for freshwater. Check out Sunglasses A-Z on amazon, they are about $100 cheaper than basspro and i've never had any bad orders with them.

Blue or Green 580G has been the best all around lenses for me.
