Smith Truss Sunglasses

Most performance sunglasses look like performance sunglasses. The Smith Truss doesn't. It takes the lens technology and stay put engineering from Smith's sport line and puts it into a frame shape that works just as well off the bike as on it.

The lenses are the main draw. ChromaPop technology enhances contrast and natural colour to sharpen detail across changing terrain and light. Three options cover the range: standard ChromaPop for everyday clarity, ChromaPop polarized to cut glare, and a photochromic version that adapts to changing light conditions automatically. All come with a smudge and moisture resistant coating and full UV protection. The 4 base lens curvature keeps things flat enough for daily wear without the wraparound look of a full sport frame.

The frame is built from Smith's Evolve bio-based material, lightweight and durable without relying entirely on petroleum based plastics. AutoLock hinges hold the arms open so you can put them on one handed, and QuickFit temples adjust for a custom fit. Megol nose pads and temple grips keep them locked in place during movement. A removable TPU bridge piece adds comfort and lets you change the look slightly. Leash ready holes at the temple tips come with an included paracord lanyard for days when losing them isn't an option.

It sits in that narrow space between sport eyewear and everyday sunglasses where very few frames manage to be genuinely good at both. The Truss gets closer than most.
