Smith Redline Max Sunglasses - Polarized - 2009 BCS

I've had slider smith sun glasses for years. I have a medium to small face and the smiths have always fit well so I made the plug and got a great deal on a set of Redlines. I've been on two road rides and the glasses are great. They fit true to form for my medium sized face. They keep out the light and wide from the sides and they are easy on my eyes (even with my contacts in)!! The only negative I've found so far is the case. It has this little felt protector for the extra lenses that just doesn't work. My solution was to leave the extra lenses in the plastic baggy they came in to avoid scratches in the case. Other than that I think these will be great riding glasses!!

So far these are great glasses. I wanted Smiths because I love their snow goggles so much. The glasses took a little getting used to: snug fit, lenses with large coverage area (bigger than I’m used to but not eerily large). I’ve taken these on my road bike and unlike a lot of other glasses, these protected my eyes perfectly from the wind. No more post-ride red eyes for me. I paid the higher price to get the other lenses with the frame. In Colorado the sun’s particularly bright so the dark polarized lenses are great. It’s also a quick changes to the clear lenses for a night commute to keep the bugs out of your eyes.

Just got this pair, they work great for around town / driving. They are a bit snug on my face, but that is to be expected since they are for medium faces.

I just got these glasses and am so glad I now have performance shades to wear when road and mountain biking. I swear - first ride I wore them, I had my fastest mountain bike ride of the season! I switched the lenses out for the Ignitor right away and they were solid for a sunny afternoon. The coverage was great for my face, breatheability spot-on, plus they made me look way cooler than my old pair. Total score.
