The Smith Method Polarized Sunglasses are ready to race. Hop into your speedboat or hemi-powered muscle car and go for pink slips. Put the pedal to the metal and take advantage of polarized optics that give you a glare-free view of the finish line. If you happen to drop the Smith Methods in your post-race celebrations, the TR90 Grilamid frame stands up to the abuse. After blowing the doors off of the competition, you can still rock these fast-looking shades while you party with the trophy girls.
Bottom Line: Grab the Smith Method Polarized Sunglasses and peel out.
I bought this 2 years ago with Polarchromic Lenses (Adjustable Tint, Polarized). They are still my favorite glasses. The styling is just right for medium faces and the lenses are incredible. Unfortunately they don't seem to offer the polarchromic lens in this frame anymore, I wanted to snap up another pair.
I bought a pair of the Smith Super Methods a couple of years ago and they were great, just a little too Super...and I ended up on wearing them as much because of the fit. I'm assuming that the regular Methods will be a better match for my face dimensions. Is this a safe assumption? Any one out there able to comment on the comparison between the Method and Super Method? Thanks.
I have tried the Methods, but liked the Supers better for my face. If you felt that the Super was too big, then for sure the Methods will work better. You also might be a border line face, where neither is good, but we can only hope that it works out for you.

It's true, I'm an addict of sunglasses for sure. I am obsessed with wearing them whenever it is even somewhat sunny. My first pair of Methods were given to me 5 years ago and due to me loosing them and not taking care of them and getting them too scratched, I've needed to get new glasses, but I keep coming back to these. They're big enough that they block a lot of sun, but they're not too Hollywood. Also, I really don't like it when glasses sit on my cheeks and these don't at all. The super methods do and get foggy really easily, but these are great.
I had a pretty terrible over-the-bars, no-hander-lander on my face mountain bike crash, and as my face was dragging across the rocks and dirt I was truly thanking my lucky stars for these shatterproof lenses because I literally would have lost my right eye. The lens bore a huge brunt of the crash (the impact did slice open my eyebrow and cheek right where the frame hit) skin heals, and the rocks would have done much more damage. I love that I can wear these riding or casually and they perform beautifully either way.
These are one of Smith's older style frames and I've had them forever!!!! That being said, I wanted to try something new but nothing fits and looks as good as these Methods. I have a medium sized head/round face and these fit perfect so I keep going back to these. My wife has a small to medium size head and they look great on her too. They are stylish without looking cheesy or too big. Like I said, I've had these forever and they are absolutely bomb proof. The frames feel great/light on and do not have any rubber padding on the nose or temples that may wear out over time. Just great all around frames that I dress up in and mountain bike in.
These are great all around glasses, from chilling to skiing. My only gripe is that they did not provide enough coverage for my big eyes, so I went with the Super methods. Get these, you wont be disappointed
great sunglasses, but the retail this site had them was off, then i paid a higher price, and then saw them for less on steep n cheep, not happy about that...........
Even my dog loves these glasses. She wanted me to get a new pair so she ate the first pair I had and recently tried to have her way with my newest pair. I don't mind spending my money as long as it's on a quality product that does what it says. They are stylish, offer great protection and are almost dog proof.
These shades are great. I have a slightly narrow face and they fit it well. Good full sun protection and they come in a polarized version, which is the only way to go. I do a bit of traveling and they're great. Style and function. I've run in them, ran around on a boat with them on and kick it in the city. My only problem is that I tend to place them down in random places and they quickly walk off. This is the third pair I have owned.
These are so versatile. I love them for running, can wear them biking and love how cool they look. Also gotta love the polarized lens! very flattering glasses that work well on many face styles.
