Smith Passage Sunglasses - Polarchromic
Professional fishermen choose the Smith Passage. Trustworthy tapered lenses, made from glass not plastic, eliminate distortion to offer crisp vision. Polarchromic technology adjusts to changing light and shadows that might otherwise hide the catch of the day. Glare from flat water and blazing sun is absorbed within the Passage's polarization. When reeling in a big one, your glasses will stay put via non-slip Megol pads. Optimum coverage for large faces blocks more sun, so you can see the one that won't be getting away.
Bottom Line: This Passage is the right way to ultimate eye protection.

The Passage kicks ass in the mountains- non-slip nose and arms pads really help. And great glass lens
Polorchromic!

These glasses are the best glasses I've ever owned. I've had Smith Threshhold Interchangables, a couple of pair of Smith's regular polorized lensed glasses and the Passage Polorchromics are the best yet. If you are looking for a fishing lense, get Polorchromic. Polorchromic lenses are polorized, meaning they cut down the glare which allows you to see into teh water, but they are also photochromic which means they adapt to the given light in any situation. In the shade they allow more light to come into the lense, and in the bright sun they darken to keep bright light out. You'll need a pair of polorchomic lenses if you are serious about fishing til dark to hit the Caddis hatch. You'll thank me later, I promise.
How do these fit? I have a small to medium size head. Are these

Tom, I too have a small to medium face. Most glasses seem to be a bit wide for my face and it kinds sucks, but not the Passage by Smith! They will fit you great. Good call going for the Polarchromic lenses, you won't regret it.

These are made for a medium to large face, so you might just fit the bill.

Best fishing sunglasses I've ever used. I use the copper polorchromic for all round use. They are great during the late evening. Don't forget your Chums!

These really bring out great contrast in everything you look at. Cut glare and most important point out the fish in the river. Even late into the night, I could still see fish in the water. Go photochromic, I don't know what it means but I can tell a huge differene between my other 10 pairs of "fishermen" glasses
Change me.
