Smith POV sunglasses
Most dudes own an arsenal of sunglasses for their everyday carry needs. Usually at least one is for doing stuff outside: Running, hiking, mowing the lawn, biking, driving, digging a ditch, fishing, skiing, pulling weeds from the garden.
The other is for being seen in public, at a concert or a beer garden or tailgate before the game.
Smith’s new POV sunglasses is pretty convincing argument that you only need one. They’re now available via SmithOptics.com for $197.
The all-new Smith POV is a shield-style wraparound to give your eyeballs max protection from the sun’s blinding glare and UV rays.
Smith toned the look down in these new shades just enough to work around town, too.
It’s the third style in the brand’s Ulterior Collection… Smith’s solution to eyewear for people who hike in the morning and maybe grab an apres beer.

The lens is remarkable: It’s big, wraps around, and has side windows, so you get a full 180-degree view. It also uses Smith’s ChromaPop tech, which is some of the best polarization in the sunglasses game. It sharpens contrast and color, offering polarized glare control with enhanced color for all your outdoor adventures. Everything just looks a little bit crisper through it.
The lenses are also coated to resist smudges and moisture in the elements, and that anti-reflective layer cuts down on eye strain
Smith POV Sunglasses
Smith POV sunglasses are the ultimate trailrunning, biking, and outdoor activity sunglasses, featuring ChromaPop lenses.
Of course, you get 100% UV protection to keep your optometrist happy on the next checkout.
The new Smith POV frame is made from Smith’s bio-based Evolve material. It’s light and durable, and the nose pads actually get grippier when you sweat… a nice touch if you’re prone to having your sunglasses slide down your face while you’re in the moment on the trail. The hinges lock open as well, so putting them on with one hand is real easy. It also includes temple tips that work with a paracord leash if you’d rather they hang around your neck so you can keep tabs on them, like a responsible sunglasses owner.
Smith has been in the eyewear game for a long time, and the Portland-based brand has earned its keep when it comes to great shades. The company started in Sun Valley, Idaho, in 1965; in fact, skiers and snowboarders will respect that they invented the first snow goggles with a sealed thermal lens.
The POV comes in five colors and costs $197. It’s available now at smithoptics.com and select specialty shops.
