Guides don’t get to pick the days they go out. A guide faces every imaginable weather condition and his or her equipment has to hold up. Smith designed the Guide’s Choice Sunglasses to be tough enough to handle Mother Nature’s wrath so your eyes don’t have to.
- Polarchromic lenses eliminate glare and self-adjust tint according to light conditions (automatically darken as the sun gets brighter, lighten when the clouds come out)
- TLT Techlite glass lens offers maximum optical clarity and greater durability than plastic
- TR90 Grilamid frame is tough, flexible and lightweight
- Hydrophilic Megol on the nose and ear-pieces grip stronger the more you sweat
- Medium fit
Bottom Line: Protection you can rely on.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
Great glasses, too small

These are really fantastic fishing glasses. Unfortunately, I had to return them as they are simply too small to comfortably fit my head. I think that medium fit definitely leans towards the small to medium range, not the medium to large range. But other than the fit - these were the exact glasses that I had hoped to find. Optics are the best I've experienced in fishing glasses.
I'll never go back to "regular" glasses!

I love these glasses. The lenses have amazing clarity. Also, the auto tint feature makes transition from sunny areas to shade very convenient. No more putting glasses on my head and then putting them back on my face over and over again. I never realized how clutch that technology was, but will now never go back. The rubber on the nose piece is a nice touch as it prevents them from sliding on a sweaty face. They are pretty light considering how sturdy they are, but I could definitely feel them after 8+ hours straight.
Great optics, lousy frames.

I'm on my second pair of Smith sunglasses and have found the lenses to be excellent quality and the frames very comfortable. However, on both pairs that I have owned they developed cracks along the bottom edge of the frame. Smith optics insisted they where dropped and wont not warranty the glasses. It seems they would rather sell me another pair at half the MSRP than honoring the warranty. I would recommend staying away from these glasses and going with a brand with a better reputation such as Maui Jim or Costa Del Mar.
