Smith built the Outlaw Sunglasses with tough Grilamid TR90 frames and stainless steel hinges to make them tough enough for just about anything. Being an outlaw and all you’ll have to endure car chases and bank heists and shootouts, so it’ll be good to have a tough pair of shades. Plus you get Smith’s 8 Base optically correct lenses to ensure you see everything clearly and spot the fuzz a mile away.

Bottom Line: Tough as nails.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

My First Pair

By:
March 28, 2011

So I've never owned a pair of sunglasses before because I'm not a sunglasses kinda guy but I took a shot with these (From SAC, black/grey non-polarized, only about $40 including shipping). Being a noob with sunglasses, I don't really know my face size but I'll guess medium, maybe medium/small (5'9 150 lbs) and it's a good fit. While the glasses are on, there's no slipping even when bending over which is surprising because there are no nose-/temple-grips. When you have them on top of your head (bro-status, haha), they'll move around a little but if you have a bigger head then you'll be alright. As for the style, the lenses are pretty big considering my face size but the square frame makes it look nice. Not only do the lenses provide excellent cover, I found the wide ear pieces (whatever it's called, arm? The other end of the hinge after the lenses) conveniently block out the sun from the periphery too; it's not like you're always looking in the direction of the sun, y'know? So I like the look and the function, I get compliments from friends and ladies alike. Durability-wise, I've had these things for over a year and only a few minor scratches; they still look great. In fact, the only reason why the scratches are there is because I'm pretty careless with these. I lost the pouch for them so I just leave them wherever; I'll throw them in my backpack (it has a shitty, likely abrasive sunglasses pocket) or hang one of the earpieces from my front pocket when the sun's not out. Loved these glasses so much I started getting other pairs; now I have a pair of Oakley M-frames (so ugly you can only wear them for physical activity, haha) and a pair of classic Ray-Ban aviators. Price aside, I would choose these Smith's over my other pairs any day. Attached is a pic I took with them to give you all a better idea.
Edit: And I should mention while my Ray-Ban aviators leave painful and obvious marks from the nose piece, these Smith haven't hurt me one bit nor left any mark even when wearing them for hours straight.

Love these shades, super light, super comfy, extremely durable, and the quality of Smith's optics is always top notch. What more could you want? Got a great deal for mine on chainlove I believe, but definitely worth any price your willing to pay.

Do these have UV protection ? What does being polarized mean

Yes, these sunglasses provide 100% UV protection.

In short, "polarized" sunglasses block reflected light/glare from surfaces like water, snow and glass. This can be very helpful if you spend time on water (fishing, sailing) on snow (skiing/boarding, snowshoeing, etc.), or drive on wet/snowy roads. Obviously, most people perform at least some of these activities, and (personally) I have found that polarized shades are worth the extra cost.

FWIW, the sunglasses on this page are not polarized.

Befriend an Outlaw

Love them. Comfortable for long periods and fit very securely. The fit is true to Smith sizing, and Smith sizing is true to most people, so if you have a medium sized head, chances are pretty good that they'll fit you nicely. They're nice and compact but still have that stylie square look.

These things are mad functional and have killer style. I have a medium sized head and they stay on even when I lean over. Awesome shades.

Good Stuff

Nice shades. They are similar in size to Oakley Gascans, but they fit nicer, have metal hinges, and feel better than them. Good for outdoor activities and random mischief.

Perfect for me. Mellow styling looks good no matter what I wear, the lenses are Smith-typical top notch, the cost is easy, they're sturdy...I need a backup pair.
