What is ChromaPop™ and how does it work?

ChromaPop™ is Smith Optics’ proprietary lens technology that filters the wavelengths responsible for color muddiness in standard lenses, producing sharper contrast and more natural color. On the trail, that means reading terrain more clearly. On water, it means better depth and surface definition. Available across sunglasses and goggles in polarized and photochromic versions.

Are Smith Optics sunglasses polarized?

Many Smith Optics’ sunglasses come with polarized lenses. Polarization cuts reflected glare from water, snow, and pavement, reducing eye fatigue and improving contrast. Smith Optics’ ChromaPop™ Polarized lenses combine glare reduction with enhanced color definition — a strong option for fishing, skiing, and driving in high-sun conditions.
