    Providing maximum coverage, these Smith Parallel D-Max interchangeable sunglasses allow unobstructed peripheral vision—ideal for trail running, cycling or a day on the water.

    • Each frame includes 1 set of blue mirror lenses and 2 additional sets of lenses for a total of 3 sets of lenses
    • 2 additional sets of lenses include: rose Ignitor for optimal depth perception in medium light/overcast conditions and clear for low light to night conditions
    • Frames are made from bio-plastic Rislan® Clear (derived from non-GMO castor seeds) and Grilamid® TR90 lightweight nylon for a resilient, durable and consistent fit
    • Scratch- and impact-resistant Carbonic lenses use Smith Tapered Lens Technology™ to provide distortion-free vision
    • Tapered Lens Technology progressively tapers the lens so that light travels through without distortion—what you see is what you get
    • Hydrophilic Megol™ nosepiece and temple ends become tackier when wet for reliable grip during exercise and hot weather
    • 9-base-curve lenses; (the higher the number the more curved the lens—Smith features sunglasses with 6, 7, 8 and 9 base curvature)
    • Smith Parallel D-Max frames have a medium fit with extra-large lenses for greater coverage

    Imported.

        Comments about Smith Parallel D-Max Sunglasses:

        I was tired of glasses that were hard to put on when wearing a helmet or tight knit hat. I invested in these for my cycling needs and will also wear them when nordic skiing. I like the multi colored and clear lenses which are interchangeable and keep peripheral vision covered. By using my dividend coupon I was able to save money and buy them for less than in other stores.

        Not what I was hoping for

        Best Uses

          Comments about Smith Parallel D-Max Sunglasses:

          I own other Smith glasses and have been quite pleased with their quality. But right away this pair seemed flimsy and cheap. I'm sure the frame needs to be able to flex for changing the lenses but the quality of the plastic is underwhelming. The extra lenses are sweet and the rose color was great for Pacific Northwest overcast. However the lens quality was so poor that every time I tried to clean them it would leave a haze. Even using a optic spray and cloth.
          The worst feature is that they fog horribly. If I was going downhill or at a good pace on level ground it was fine. Anytime I was riding uphill either mountain or rode biking they would completely fog. I'm bummed, but going to return these and get the vented Tifosi's. I would not recommend these for anyone who will perspire when riding uphill...

              Comments about Smith Parallel D-Max Sunglasses:

              These glasses are slightly larger than the parallels so the sides of my eyes are better protected from wind . Comfortable and with a choice of several different lenses, they meet different conditions perfectly
