"Disappointed with Smith. The sunglasses fit loosely and constantly fell off during normal use. After a very minor fall, the lens shattered completely, and the warranty claim was denied. I’ve owned multiple Smith products over the years, but between the poor durability and lack of support, I won’t be purchasing from them again."

Tolon L. (1/5)

"Great glasses but one set just thrown in packing box, not in case that was loose next to them. Weird decision given cost but furtunately not damaged"

Best Fishing Glasses

"Guides choice have been in my experience the best glasses for sight fishing shallow water situations. From mirrored polar-chromatic lenses that fit an array of situations to low light lenses for cloudy days. They really cover the entire range necessary when targeting fish in the flats. The instant improvement in ability one has to see fish when wearing the appropriate glasses is undeniable."

George (5/5)

"Flimsy- The arm of the glasses caught in my hair and when disengaging the arm pulled right out of the metal hinge… the frame didn’t break and the hinge didn’t break it simply pulled out of the insertion indentation in the arm of the glasses. It doesn’t stay in now."

The best fishing guide glasses on the market !!!!

"I ordered a pair of the Guide's Choice Polarchromic sunglassess and I'm very satisfied with the quality of the glasses. These are my new favorite pair of shades while on the water. I am a licensed charter boat Captain and licensed fishing guide in the state of Michigan and these make all the difference in the world! Extremely happy with my purchase! Highly recommend the Polarchromic for those who love to fish!"

Captain A. (5/5)

Love these lenses!

"These are by far the best lenses I’ve had and I’ve spent a LOT of money on lenses"

james h. (5/5)

"Lunette confortable avec une bonne polarisation mais l’effet polarchromic et imperceptible donc décevant."

Jean M. (3/5)

Guides choice "XL"

"Frames and lenses seem good quality, chose XL frame as I have a big head. They are too small reason for 4 stars not 5. If you've worn Costa permits, these are smaller. Overall slightly disappointed with fitment."

Chris (4/5)

Best in the industry right now!

"The glass Chromapop polarchromic lenses are the best lenses in the industry at the moment. Frames are great they just run a bit large, that being said I’m only 5’8”, 145lbs."

Hunter F. (5/5)

"High quality construction. Quick shipping. Would give stars but there was a very strong chemical smell that couldnt be easily removed. It has now subsided after being left out for a few days. Smith optics still has the highest quality products and best customer service in my opinion."
