SMITH Longfin Sunglasses with ChromaPop Lenses – Polarized Performance Sports Active Sunglasses – For Men & Women

Sunglasses are very subjective. You either like how they look on you or you don’t. But one thing that is not subjective is Smith’s quality. Their lenses make the world look sharper and colors more vivid. I was a Costa fan for years, when I put on my first pair I was amazed at how much better they were. The frames, hinges and nose pads are the best in the industry. And nothing compares to their lenses when you’re on the water. I love sight fishing and my Smith sunglasses allow me to see fish I would have missed with any other brand. They’re not just fashion for me, they’re a tool, and the best tool at that.

I've lived in the tropics for 60 years and have owned numerous ocean related businesses. Sunglasses I have owned include Oakley, ray-ban, Costa, Maui Jim, etc. etc. I always get the neutral Grey lenses for true color rendition and only polarized sunglasses.When I first received these glasses and put them on and walked outside I was disappointed due to what I perceived as added unnecessary colors. BUT after using them for a hike on my beach these became my favorite sunglasses. That Chroma Pop really works.

The Lens quality is crystal clear, and they fit to my face well. I'm not worried about them falling off while I'm cycling, or fishing

Christmas for son, he loved them

Excellent at cutting glare, even from the side

As a fisherman, I need my sunglasses to perform in multiple ways: battling glare, changing light conditions, fogging, long periods of wear, and sweat/ saltwater.These sunglasses have been tested at this point. I would not think twice about buying a second pair after 4 months of near daily use. I bought the tortoise, glass lens. They are not scratched anywhere despite multiple drops. The material touching the face is a robust, soft rubber. The arms of the frame are malleable, yet firm in hand. They have not bothered my head at all during multiple 8 hr + outings. The nose piece seems appropriate for most nose sizes, mine is pretty narrow and the glasses will slide down my nose bridge occasionally when wet.The lens performs well in most light conditions, which is why I wanted this color. In bright light, the brown lens is manageable, I don’t feel the need to squint when wearing a hat. In low light it performs much better than I anticipated, being able to wear these in the early dawn hours without sacrificing visibility.I don’t doubt that the frame components on the sides of the glasses block light, but you will absolutely still get glare from the sides. That was a big selling point for me, as I have sensitive eyes. However, I experienced HEAVY fogging with my previous smith sunglasses (guides choice), and sought an option that would have a strong performance in terms of fog prevention and glare reduction. These glasses fog significantly less than my guides choice. Glare is still somewhat of an issue, but far less than other options that don’t wrap the face with the frame.I also really love that these sunglasses don’t scream “I’m going fishing.”I highly recommend these sunglasses in terms of style, performance, and durability.

Due to price you couldn’t beat it. That was spring 2023 on this page. So it’s absurd the price hike when they’re fantastic selling at $35

Very happy with these glasses. Frames are well constructed. Lenses are incredible. I use them fly fishing mainly and these are definitely an upgrade for me. Polarized lenses cut a lot of the glare and allows me to spot fish and flies much better. A+
