Fantastic lens for the Virtue Vio ascend I have. Came right from virtue and in excellent shape. Packaging was well kept and came with no damages to the box either. Very satisfied with this purchase and I the future I will be ordering from here again!

My expectations for this lens were simple.- Does it stop fog buildup- Does it help with the sun in my eyes- Is the value good for the priceThis lens absolutely changed how I played paintball, it truly was night and day. No longer stuck in the back line afraid of breathing to heavy and not being able to see anything or dreading being on the wrong side because the sun would be in my eyes. After getting these i could fearless play any position i needed without worry of my vision being obstructed. These are an absolute steal for this price and a necessity in your gear bag.Be carful cleaning though. The anti fog is on the inside of the lens. Be sure to use nothing but a micro-fiber rag and water or the anti-fog will wipe away.

Great product and a great addition to the mask. Ordered specifically for ( airsoft ) use on darker days and indoor CQB sites. Great visibility and strong enough to withstand point blank shots without causing damage or even marking the lense. I highly recomend this lense

These are amazing lenses, have used multiple colors/shades and all have been great. Virtue has great customer service as well. Had one lens arrive with a scratch on it once, it happens could’ve been from shipping or what not, and virtue didn’t hesitate to send a replacement that same day and sent me a return label to send the old one back. Also word of advice, if you somehow get paint on the inside of the lens where the anti-fog film is, clean it off immediately or asap. If paint is left on there it will ruin it. Other than that awesome lenses!

The Chromatic lenses look awesome, but in terms of utility thats about it. I tend to buy too much gear so i have clear, black, and now high contrast yellow lenses to choose from. I gave the Chromatic Fire to a friend who did not mind the reflective nature.For speedballers, you can see the paint in the air so much better with clear lenses and that allows you to dip your head out of the way a split-second earlier. I have had guys say my lenses stood out a lot on the sunny field, not that speedball involves a lot of sneaking but it does help you avoid attracting any extra attention.For Woodsballers, the chromatic looks cool but obviously does not help with camo. And on a field with buildings or shaded areas, it can be hard for guys outside of said area to spot you due to the intense contrast. But the reflective lenses with be shining bright! Especially if you are in the house looking out a window for the added light to reflect. I had players tell me it looked like a floating mask was shooting that them.Again, all of this is to say, great lenses that have never fogged up even when playing in the rain and cold weather, i just wish i had thought about how the color might give me away before i spent $35 on the Chromatics!

Man I never thought a Lens could make that much difference when playing in the woods. I normally play speedball but I have a few friends who just got into paintball and they only play woodsball. I was playing with a clear lens for some time but it was pretty easy to spot me due to my face poping out so much in the wooded environment. Tried a smoke lens and that helped me from sticking out like a sore thumb but it made it difficult to distinguish players from normal objective if they were just camping behind trees/objects. This lens changed everything. It gave me that low key contrast that didn’t give my position away as much as the clear and it gave me the ability to spot players so easy. It highlights the colors so you can notice so much more then with either lens.

These lenses are great they never fog, they never have a problem with water unless submerged for a long period of time, only problem is the chromatic lenses scratch super easy they look cool but only last a hand full of games till its noticeable, the HD lens, clear and smoke have had zero problems with.

I bought the Chromatic Gold Vio lens for my Virtue Ascend mask, and they give you that mirror look. I was concerned that I won't be able to play indoors but I had no problems with them. When you get closer you can see in them easier, and they are mirrored from a distances (see pictures). They can be easily scratched, so make sure you have some micro fiber cloths and water to clean them on the field.

I love this lens and use it all the time. Its very clear, crisp and bright. I play a lot of woodsball in the trees so its extremely helpful to have a crisp clear view.I use it on bright sunny fields, but it can be more challenging than a tinted lens in this area. I do carry a tinted lens in my gear bag, but just haven't felt the need to put it on during the sunny games. I ended up adding a visor to my goggles (Vio Ascend).I highly recommend this visor and plan to get a second as a backup.

Bought the clear lens as a replacement for my current lens. The one I received varies slightly from the pictured clear lens in the fact that the edges aren't colored. In reality this does nothing to change the function or appearance of the lens or the mask overall, but for those that demand absolute perfection in the way they look this may be an issue.My mask is a first generation Virtue VIO, green with green/black lower half. As a first gen it has the oft complained about mask securing system. This lens, being essentially an OEM lens, locked right into place without issue. Clarity was great, and didn't have any problems fogging when I played this last weekend.By and far the Virtue VIO is my favorite mask I've worn, in part because of their lenses. Can't go wrong with their clear thermal lens as a replacement or a different option from their other chromatic offerings (which I cannot speak to as I don't buy or use chromatic lenses)
