Reviews

"Fit and Prescription Lens was PERFECT and they Look FANTASTIC!!! But the color in the photo is completely False advertising, they are NOT TEAL/MEDITERRANIAN they are almost a glossy Navy Blue. They need to update that photo and people will be just as happy!"

David (5/5)

Quality At The Right Price

"This is my second or third pair of Smith Optics Rx frames, which that should speak for itself. I know I can always count on a quality product but more importantly, only the BEST customer service. All questions were promptly and with the correct information. I’ll always be sticking with Smith for any future eyewear in addition to skull protection (great helmets)."

Jacob P. (5/5)

Slip without a nosepad

"The fit is great, the lenses are great, but they constantly slip down my face. Compared to lowdown sunglasses with a nosepad, these are absolutely unwearable. I regret getting this style."

Ivan B. (2/5)

"These are pheominal glasses. Very easy to forget youre wearing them. The metallic construction just sends them over the top."

Sydney (5/5)

MJ (5/5)

They didnt fit, not even close

"Î trying to find and glasses place locally that can pull the lenses and try and get them into a new frame. . . . it was my mistake. I never should have tried online. At this point is was a huge waste of money"

Arrived Damaged

"I absolutely love the fit, style, comfort, look, and blue light; however, I was surprised and disappointed to see that they arrived damaged. They were scratched and almost dented, and the arms were extremely loose. I"
