About Smith Optics


Based in Sun Valley, Idaho, Smith Optics, Inc. was founded in 1965 with the creation of the first-ever goggle featuring a sealed thermal lens and breathable vent foam. In the early years, founder Dr. Bob Smith, an orthodontist by trade, made goggles by hand using dental tools, foam, and glue. Before he struck a deal for manufacturing of Smith goggles in the late 60s, Smith would often trade his creations for lift tickets. These early prototypes were usually manufactured by Smith and friends around the kitchen table.

Building on that goggle heritage and extending its expertise, Smith Sport Optics has gone on to set the standard for high-performance eyewear and goggles. Innovations over the years include the Fog-X anti-fog coating, PMT Perforated Membrane Technology lens ventilation system, patented Turbo C.A.M. Constant Air Management system, patented Regulator adjustable lens ventilation system, patented Roll Off's film advance system for motocross, patented ODS (Ocular Docking System) prescription insert, and patented Slider series sunglasses, the most innovative interchangeable lens sunglass available.

Today, Smith Optics has become synonymous with innovative, durable, top-quality products in the eyewear and goggle market. The company is also recognized for its unparalleled team roster, which boasts some of the top names in biking, motocross, skiing, snowboarding, surfing, skateboarding, and wakeboarding. Like many other companies, Smith utilizes team input as a key element of new product introductions. In addition, Smith athletes are actively involved in the development process for performance testing and coloration selection.

Smith products are sold worldwide in more than 50 countries through specialty and sporting goods stores. From Smith's distortion-free Tapered Lens Technology to the versatility of the Slider Series, with its patented, interchangeable lens system, its devotion to excellence, innovation and style has made Smith goggles and sunglasses the choice of action-sport athletes worldwide. Smith products represent authentic sports gear, researched and tested by a dedicated group of employees and athletes that live and breathe the lifestyle.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prefer over Oakleys, September 26, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Smith Optics Riverside Sunglasses (Eyewear)
When looking for a new pair of sunglasses I had some requirements that led me to Smith Optics
They needed to be polarized because I fish
I wanted glass lenses because my last pair of expensive oakleys had a scratch within a week and by the time they broke completely and the warranty had run out they had a ton of scratches and pitting.
I didn't want to spend as much money as I had done in the past
When I found these Smith sunglasses they had all my requirements, plus had the added benefits of a lifetime warranty and the polarchromic lenses mean that when I'm out fishing at dusk, I can keep my sunglasses on for the polarization longer.

I've now had them for 6 months and I love them, I got the polarchromic copper lenses with matte black frame for under $100. I ordered them online so I never was able to try them on but they fit nicely, the pads on the sides and nose keep them on my face, the spring hinges bend backwards so you don't break them as...Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Warranty Service, January 12, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Smith Optics have terrible warranty service. My lens cracked recently while the glasses were being tranported in the mfg supplied case inside of a padded carry-on bag. I did no impact the lenses in any way. Smith wants to charge me $70 for warranty repair. They didn't care what I had to say, nor that I have literally owned three pairs of these same glasses. I'd recommend any of you think twice before buying a product from a company that doesn't stand behind what they build.
