Pursue your thrill in the backcountry. From skin track to boot pack to full-speed descents, the Smith Pursuit sunglasses can do it all. They blend goggle-like coverage with the airflow and easy-to-wear feel of sunglasses that perform while you're climbing and descending. Our ChromaPop™ Glacier Photochromic lens adapts to changing light conditions and delivers color and contrast-boosting performance throughout the full range of the lens. Removable, magnetic side shields add peripheral light coverage, and adjustable temple arms let you customize the fit. A pack-friendly, screwless hinge creates a fail-safe backcountry design, and a low-profile case ensures minimal storage in your pack.

Fine tune your kit with additional or replacement lenses for sunny conditions, variable conditions, and cloudy conditions.

See Cody's vision: the Pursuit

It’s easy to think of ski mountaineering in two parts: the climb up and the ski down. Truth is, it’s one big adventure. That’s why we partnered with resident masochist Cody Townsend to create the Pursuit: a single piece of eyewear designed to meet his high standards for all aspects of the mission, from boot packs to hop turns.
