Smith Slider Series Empire Sunglasses

Item #SMI0100 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Love them Smiths!

By Backcountry.com Employee February 21, 2007

These replace my throughly worn-out 5 year old slider 01's. The fit is similar, medium head, close fit to face, but the empires have a taller lens for better coverage. They're well designed, particularly the nose and temple rubber pads, and very comfy. My only gripe is that the wide sides get in your peripheral vision a little bit, but that's a minor issue and trouble for all sunglasses.
