Jake, might sound silly but I have a pair of amber S11's that I use when it's overcast and I'm sight fishing. Cheap and work exceptionally well.

I have a 580P with gray lens that I wear in any weather. Lets in way more light than my amber with green mirror lenses. The amber is more clear when fishing Fork, but the gray is a perfect all-weather driving lens.

Copper is great for all conditions. Grey lenses are great for cloudy days but not so much for sunny days.

I have an old pair of amber glass 580g with no coating that I guard with my life. Costa please make that lens again. That lens is killer for low light cloudy type sight fishing.

Fouzman we do not have a date at this time. Don't want to give you unwarranted expectations.
