“I ordered a pair of Wildcats at the end of July. Paid $25 CAD shipping fee. The sunglasses has never arrived, apparently UPS lost the package. I tried to ask to speed up the process of investigation as I specifically need them for a biking road trip but apparently nothing could have be done. Still waiting....”
“They leave big gaps between my face and forehead where the sun gets behind the glasses and reflects back into my eyes. Useless around noon. But the glass is clear at least. I wouldn’t buy them again.”
“I’ve been wearing Smith gear for over 10 years. They are great and will continue to be my favorite. These glasses are have great coverage and definitely keep everything out of my eyes. I experienced two issues. One was that that rubber pieces started to get really soft, almost like they were melting. The other was that a layer of the lens started to deteriorate. I live in Oklahoma, so it’s not uncommon for it to be well over 100 degrees here, so that’s what I contribute these issues to. So maybe don’t buy these is you live in a really hot climate like I do. I did let the customer service reps know about the issue and they offered to let me claim the warranty on them. I haven’t done that but these might just become my beat up glasses. Again, I will always recommend Smith, they are amazing, I think these just can’t handle the heat.”

“I was behind the frame sunglasses trend, but not anymore! These actually fit my female face and THEY STAY PUT! Love the grippy adjustable nose pads. I’m finding the violet lens with mine is quite versatile. So far I’ve only used them in winter for skate skiing and bc touring (work well in lieu of goggles on not-stormy days for descending). No issues with fogging either while working up a sweat.”

“I’ve had many pairs of smith sunglasses over the years and have always been impressed with optical quality stylish designs. This is my first pair of MTB specific shades. Lenses and fit are excellent. I have a narrow face so I could use a little more wrap around that these offer but these would be perfect for most face shapes. The adjustable nose piece really dials in fit with helmet. Lens swap is easy enough! Overall solid product!”
