About Smith Optics
In 1965, Dr. Bob Smith who was an orthodontist and skiing enthusiast developed the first ever sealed thermal lens and breathable ventilated foam goggles so that he could enjoy more ski runs on his outings. Everyone else without this technology had to keep dealing with constantly fogging goggles and had their runs cut short as a result.
With over 50 years of operating as a company under their belt, Smith Optics is a leading provider of protective eyewear and headgear for adventurers who travel to all sorts of environments from sand to snow. Performance and innovation has always been part of the heritage that drives them and Smith Optics has always been looking for new designs to further enhance clarity and protection for your eyes. Smith Optics also makes eco-friendly sunglasses to round out the collection. Smith is aimed to enhance the experiences of those who are into snow, surf, bikes, and fish. In more recent years Smith Optics has begun designing eyewear specific to the needs of military and law enforcement as well. Their commitment to performance and offering the best technology has translated beautifully to give us a line of Smith Optics eyewear that is suited for airsofters as well. If you are looking for performance at the highest level for your protective eyewear needs check out all the ones we carry from Smith Optics.
