Do people wear the MX version skiing? Or do they not work as well as the snow? Because I want to get some and the MX version is a lot cheaper. Thanks and +k to all of you that help!

The snow ones have wholes or 'vents' at the top of the lens. Unlike the MX version

Yea i'm sure the mx ones will fog up really bad, really quick.
If you're on a tight budget, here's a pair of white o frames with persimmon lens for 40 bucks

Thanks +k, Yea I saw those but I'm trying to get either white or black with a dark grey lens. If any of you want to sell /trade Oakley O's to me that would be great.

MX won't work well for skiing I suggest getting snow ones, you can probably find them for very cheap seeing as they are O-Frames and a lower model than say Splice or Crowbar as well as it being June, hahaha.

just a suggestion, if you're on a budget that tight, spy goggles make some pretty sick goggles for the cheaper than mx goggles, i also bought a pair of vonzippers which look really nice for 100$ at my local store, they're light and work well too
