“Good viewing angles, well vented and fit is great for someone with a larger face / head. Overall happy with the glasses just wish they had polarized options to fight the glare.”
“Photochromic lenses are the best for Ohio weather and for riding in the shade and sun. Wildcat fits well and has good coverage. The only worry I have is when doing a look back on the road bike. the glasses feel like they can blow off.”
“The Wildcat is one of the raddest looking mountain bike glasses on the market. The chromapop lenses are also super clear.
Changing lenses is very cumbersome on the trail and impossible to do without getting finger prints everywhere. Not a fan of the system used for changing lenses. My biggest gripe is that these things won’t stay on my face. Especially on really chunky rooty trails, I’m always pulling off the trail to put my glasses back on. I’m talking almost after every section with any chunk whatsoever. It’s not great when you can’t pull over in the middle of a section and your eye protection is sitting half-way down the bridge of your nose.
They come with a really nice case and bag, and offer very good eye protection when they stay on. Also, these things never fog up which is impressive! The quality is really high end.
FYI, I’m 6’2, I ride steeper loose tech and flow trails, on an evil insurgent and live in bc.”

“Nice product, great anti fog on the lenses has not been an issue when riding. The nose piece has trouble staying up when face is sweaty after riding up. Lenses are a bit harder to change then expected. Would totally buy again with different expectations.”

Purchased these to replace my Smith Wildcat road glasses which I loved until they started cracking around the nose area middle section. So I contacted Smith and I was given a $200 credit to shop on their site.
Since the Wildcat was frame free on the lower half of the lenses I decided to go with the Bobcat which have a full frame. Unfortunately after a month they have the same cracks around the nose area. These lenses must be very weak. Im very careful and never dropped both of my glasses. I have a cheap $20 pair from Rockbros that I have had for 4yrs no issues at all. They just don't look as good.
Now I have to say the Smith warranty is great. I had my wildcats replaced within a week. So I give the team, replacement program and company ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
