The best tint for sunglasses depends on the environmental and lighting conditions you tend to experience during sports.

Yellow or orange tint: Heightens contrast in overcast, hazy, low-light conditions outdoors or for indoor sports. Filters blue light for sharper focus.

Sports: cycling, hunting, shooting, skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, indoor basketball, handball, racquetball, tennis.

Amber, rose or red tint: Heightens contrast in partly cloudy and sunny conditions, but causes significant color imbalances.

Sports: cycling, fishing (amber lenses for sandy lake or stream beds), hunting, shooting, skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, water sports.

Dark amber, copper or brown: Blocks high amounts of blue light to heighten contrast and visual acuity. Particularly useful to improve contrast on grass and against blue skies.

Sports: baseball, cycling, fishing (especially in waters with grassy bottoms), golf, hunting, skiing, water sports.

Green (G-15) Heightens contrast (mildly) while preserving color balance.

Sports: baseball, golf.

Grey: Reduces overall brightness while preserving 100 percent normal color recognition.

Sports: all outdoor sports in bright light conditions.

# Basketball Players while playing in open should select grey or brown tints.
# Cyclists while riding in low light areas should select yellow tints. In other situations they may select any of the blue, brown or amber tints.
# Golfers should select brown or brownish rose tints to distinguish between grass and the ball clearly.
# Hikers should select browns normally but dark grey tint in high mountains.
# Hunters should select as per the lighting of the area.
# Sprinters should select dark brown or grey tints on sunny days with a mirror coating. Yellow amber is vital in low lights.

There are two types of tint:

1. Straight-full even dark tint
2.Graduated- darker on top and gradually lighter to clear on bottom

If you want graduated tint type like most designer glasses feature nowadays, then use 70% dark tint Graduated, it will give the right sun protect and still have the fashionable look.
30% light tint Graduated is not suitable as it may seem TOO LIGHT and almost clear on your lenses and sun protect is inadequate.
