Riptide RX

"Clarity and brightness in low light is excellent. Percription is very clear. Only reason I didn't give it 5 star is because the glasses sit too close ur face so in low light days where humidity is high it does tend to fog up easily even if u aplly anti fog stuff."

Good fit finally

"At 44 years old I finally had to get glasses. I’ve always worn sunnies but never prescription lenses. I went to a few online retailers and bought two that did not fit or feel good on my ears or head. Finally out two and two together and realized my riptide sunnies fit great and I could get them as regular prescription lenses. Bingo bango I have lenses that fit great and don’t slide off my nose."

Recommended

"I took a chance and ordered these without being able to try them on, and am happy I did. They look good (even on me), are comfortable to wear for hours at a time / most of the day straight, and stick to my face extremely well. I have only had them for a few weeks but as of now, would recommend without any reservations. Chromapop on the transitionals isn't as great as on the sunglasses though ."

Best fitting frame yet✔️

"I have been a longtime supporter of Smith. I carried them in my Surf shop for over 20+years. Closed my shop in 2019. Still buying them at retail(no more bro deals). The Riptide is the best fitting frame to date. Prior to this, it was the Oulier XL. I was worried I would never find something similar. Fit is better with the Riptide, just not as much coverage as the Outlier XL lenses. Very stoked with these frames. Will buy again with my rx in a sunglasses blue mirror lense🤙"

RX settings on website incorrect

"I was recently able to purchase a set of riptides in the prescription I needed, only to have the order cancelled because they were unable to accommodate it in prescription department. If you have a high power script, be wary of what the website says is possible for the frame and lens. Smith needs to update their online ordering to prevent issues like this in the future."

Progressives were not usable.

"Base RX was correct but the progressive was effectively off the bottom of the lens. A reality check needs added to the lens shop to make sure they are producing a workable product. I was refunded without issue and I appreciate that."

My new sunnies

"Great although I'm getting use to the rubber insert for the nose bridge. It kind of tugs at your skin (although probably keeps them more secure)."
