Description of Smith Shelter Sunglasses - Polarized:
If you're into the wrap-around look, wrap the Smith Polarized Shelter Sunglasses around your peepers to block UV and fight glare. Tapered Lens Technology keeps things distortion-free, while polarized lenses keep surfaces glare-free. These shades' Grilamid TR90 frame stands up to the trail, water, or road while Hydrophilic Megol nosepads keep these Smith sunglasses in place, even when you work up a sweat.
Bottom Line: Get some protection from the sun and a shield for the glare with the Smith Polarized Shelter Sunglasses.
These sunglasses are well crafted and rugged. You can tell that Smith cares about the quality of their product much more than some other manufacturers. The lenses are crystal clear, the polarization reduces glare efficiently, and the peripheral vision is minimally compromised. The frames are pretty large so you should like the bigger style or have a huge melon. The patterning on the frame is sweet (think translucent green jaguar) unlike like anything I have seen. Definitely one of my favorite sunglasses in the quiver.
These sunglasses are awesome. Smith has some of the best lenses out there and they are so clear. I also have a bigger head and these fit me perfectly. They also have really nice rubber nose pads that keep them from sliding off your face if you get really sweaty. The polarized lenses are great for cutting down on the glare as well. These are really great glasses.
I have left Oakley for Smith pretty much. When Oakley wouldn't replace some nose guards, I started buying Smith's and haven't looked back. Their lifetime guarantee says it all. Their shades are rugged. I work in 'em and play in 'em. I have a large head so these are a great fit and the wrap-around style keeps the peripheral glare down. This pair can dress up or down, a real style hybrid!
