Features

  • ChromaPop lens filters specific wavelengths of light that cause color confusion, delivering natural color and excellent definition, detail and clarity
  • Polarized lenses decrease eye strain by reducing visible glare from water, snow, sand and pavement
  • Lenses also provide impact protection and 100% UV protection
  • Vacuum-applied antireflective coatings on the back of the lenses eliminate bothersome sidelight reflections
  • Hydroleophobic (water- and oilproof) coating repels moisture, grease and grime—water beads up and disperses without streaking, and fingerprint smudges can be easily wiped away
  • Hydrophilic Megol nosepads gently grip your skin to help keep the frame in place for a secure fit; gripping power increases when introduced to moisture
  • 4-base lens curvature rests flat relative to your face
  • Smith auto-lock hinges stay tight and secure so your glasses stay on
  • Proprietary Evolve frame incorporates 53% bio-based material into these injected-polymer sunglasses
  • Medium fit, small coverage
  • Includes microfiber storage and cleaning bag

LOVE the Low Down Slim as a Rock Climber!

4 years ago

These glasses are perfect for long approaches with a 40lb. Backpack to the crag! They're light weight, fill well under my climbing helmet, and allow enough air flow so as to avoid heavy sweating under the eyes. I also love the ChromaPop red when climbing tall splitter cracks at Indian Creek and Moab!

Great sunglasses

3 years ago

I absolutely love these. Smith designed them to fit amazingly and they are great for every activity. I am a paramedic so I drive a lot and I love the chromo pop feature. They stay on, cover my eyes but still give me that look I want. I do wish they weren’t discounted because I love their slims fit.

Expectations for the Lowdown Slim2 not met.

1 year ago

I had high hopes for these but was let down. I have a small face so I got the women's frame. They were still too big for my narrow nose and slipped. This would not be an issue for most people with normal size noses. The big issue for me was that the Chromapop lens at first made colors seem brighter but then I realized that they made everything look wrong. What at first looked yellowish in the distance ended up being white or silver or some other lighter color up close. That was disorienting! I am really disappointed as my favorite pair of running sunglasses were a pair of Smith's. I expected to have the same result but didn't.

Fits my small face

4 years ago

Love that the Lowdown SLIM 2 fits my small face! The frame is still "big" as they are meant to be styled, but doesn't overtake my face. I was replacing another "slim" pair of Smith sunglasses (aviator style) so I was hoping to be able to wear this style and I think they're perfect. Super styling with the tortoise frame, and the colors are great through the gray-green lense. They don't slide down my nose or get caught in my hair--HUGE reason I bought Smith's. However, they do get really greasy vs my other pair of Smith sunglasses, so I'm wiping the lenses down more often. Not sure why that is, but the nose bridge must just be snug enough that it collects grease there. Still love them.

Excellent clarity and good fit for smaller faces

4 years ago

Good fit for my smaller face. Comfortable. Because they’re not a style that curves/wraps, the anti-reflective coating definitely helps to reduce glare and improve clarity. They seem a bit more difficult to keep smudge-free than other glasses I own, but it’s a minor issue considering the superior clarity and contrast they provide. Highly recommend and would buy again.

The best sunglasses!

3 years ago

I absolutely love these sun glasses! They are so stylish and effective for eye protection. I have gotten endless compliments on them as well which is always wonderful. The design is sporty and sexy. They are extremely comfortable as well which is a huge bonus. They also come with a anti slip nose grip. I live in a very hot place so that is a welcome feature!

I have worn both costas

4 years ago

I have worn both costas and Smith's sunglasses and I've always loved Smith's and how light weight they are and the clarity in the lense. My girlfriend has never had a pair into the lowdown Slim's and she absolutely loves them! Great fit and the contrast helps her spot fish in water better!

Great sunglasses!

3 years ago

The clarity of these sunglasses are amazing! Everything is so crisp and I’m looking forward to testing them on the water this year. They’re comfortable and lightweight. The camp tortoise is unique and paired with the rose gold mirror lens is super cute. Would recommend!

Replaced my old Smith glasses

4 years ago

Replaced my old Smith glasses under warranty with very little hassle. I love the lenses and frame of my new Lowdown Slims. They fold up really nice and fit in my purse avoiding damage! Great design!

Form meets function

4 years ago

Great look and fit. Fashionable enough for wearing around town, but functional enough to wear fishing, ski touring, etc. these are my new everyday shades, and I couldn’t be happier with them.
