Smith gave the Polarized Guides Choice Sunglasses fishing-friendly features and a casual design so you can wear them off the river too. The water-specific, scratch-resistant Techlite polarized glass TLT lenses use Tapered Lens Technology to straighten out oncoming rays for 100% accuracy and comfort. Smith added hydroleophobic and anti-reflective coatings to resist water, smudges, and reflections. The frame features lightweight Evolve material, a wraparound eight base curvature, rust-resistant stainless steel spring hinges, and hydrophilic nose and temple pads for a secure grip.

I bought these for my husband to use when he goes fly fishing. The polarized lenses are amazing and you can see the fish almost all the way down to the bottom in a river. He said he loves them and that they are the best glasses he has for fishing. The fit is snug and the glasses themselves are very durable. You'll be impressed with their quality straight out of the box. The frames are on the larger side, but not too big.

These particular sunglasses are Techlite, which means they are made of glass. They are more scratch resistant and the quality looking though them is much clearer in my opinion. I own the green as well as the ignitor lenses. I use them for everything but they are primarily used for fishing. Green is really good for looking into the water when the light is a bit low or shadows are an issue. The ignitor is really awesome for those full sun days where the glare is trying to take you down. Hands down the best glasses, but it definitely comes down to the fit for me. I have a larger-than-average face and they fit perfectly.

I tried on about 15 pairs of sunglasses before I landed on these - they fit my huge noggin and look good doing it. I got the black /blue mirror and they're pretty awesome
