I have been happy with Amber.
I purchased a pair of Smith of Sierra Trading post and I thought I clicked brown but ended up with grey. They are nice for driving, but too dark for fishing in the eveing.
I tried frameless Maui Jim's and that was a disaster. (But REI was great to work with) They cracked when I was cleaning them.
I now have a pair of Titanium framed, Amber Smith which appear to be glass (in Amber). These are really nice. A bit darker than my original Maui Jim's but still much better than the darker grey.
And use the glasses case. It sounds funny but the Maui Jim glasses had a much slimmer case which made the case much more practical to stick in my pocket and had a built in clip to clip on a pack. I just wish they weren't $300 for the ones I want.

Glass over plastic. I wear Costa 580g green mirrored amber lens.Don't let your glass case get coated in potpourri.Sent from my iPhoneI broke my grey Costa Hatches on a roller coaster. The repair costs for new lenses cost as much as a new pair of hatches, so I'm going to buy a different model with full frames instead.--What color lenses do you suggest for fishing around trees and the environment we have in the DC area? I found my grey lenses to be a little too dark in the shade. Also, is there a big difference between glass and plastic lenses? I'd prefer 1 general purpose set of glasses, but I could be convinced to do eventually purchase 2.
