Smith introduces a new twist to their interchangeable lens system with an intuitive way to switch your lenses in any sport or lighting condition!

  • With the new Interlock Interchangeable system, simply rotate a temple to slightly open and close frame for lens changing
  • Polarized lenses reduce 99% of visible glare from water, snow, sand and pavement for increased visual acuity and decreased eye strain
  • Each frame includes one set of polarized lenses (tint depends on frame color) and two additional sets of lenses for a total of three sets of lenses
  • Nonpolarized, additional lenses are ideal for low and medium light and nighttime
  • Grilamid™ TR90 lightweight nylon frames offer a consistent fit and flexibility in all temperatures and are extremely impact resistant
  • Scratch- and impact-resistant Carbonic™ lenses use Smith's Tapered Lens Technology™ to provide distortion-free vision
  • Smith's Tapered Lens Technology™ progressively tapers the lens toward the outer edge, allowing distortion-free vision
  • Hydrophilic Megol™ temple ends become tackier when wet for reliable grip during exercise and hot weather
  • Best fits a medium face
  • Protective storage case included

Imported.

    Comments about Smith Trace Interlock Polarized Sunglasses:

    I chose these glasses for mountain biking. I need a dark lens. these are among the darkest I have worn. the aerodymanics are very good (they block wind). the extra lens in rose is really nice for cloudy days. I have a wide head and these glasses fit great without any pinching or slipping. haven't had to push them back up my nose even when sweaty. interchangeability is also very easy with the Interlock system.

      Comments about Smith Trace Interlock Polarized Sunglasses:

      I picked up my first pair of these in a St Augustine skate shop about two years ago, and I've never looked back. I use these for absolutely everything, including a lot of super-sweaty off-road cycling, and they've not felt like slipping off once. Excellent performers on the trail, and you'll look a little more happenin' out on the patio enjoying that post-event beer. Smith's been refining the art of combining style with performance for years, and this latest iteration doesn't disappoint on either front.

      I had always liked the "slider" lens-interchange system for versatility, and Smith improved on it and nailed it with the "interlock" system. I don't think it gets much better for a sunglass at this price point: Good polarized lens, amber and clear lenses for low light, very good-quality (and stylish!) frame, and the lenses are super-easy to swap out. And a nice, solid hard case to organize and hold it all.

      My only dig would be this: Because the coverage is so complete, the circulation behind the lenses isn't optimal at times. Going up super-intense, long climbs on the bike, they tend to fog a bit.

      All in all, a great sunglass. Recommended without reservation.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
