Description

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. Expand your view here.

ANSI Z87+ Safety (where applicable)

Our safety frame line (Heat Wave Z87, Wiley X, Smith Elite, Spy ANSI, Oakley Standard Issue, Wye/Delta) meets or exceeds ANSI Z87.1-2020 impact and optical requirements where marked Z87+ on frame and lens. Oakley Meta and other consumer-grade smart frames are not Z87-rated, check the product specs for each model.

Specs & Fit

Impact-rated polycarbonate lenses with 100% UVA/UVB protection across the safety line. Look for the Z87+ mark on the frame and lens to confirm the ANSI rating. Anti-fog, polarized, and mirror options vary by model. Fit runs unisex, medium to large.

Shipping & Returns

Free shipping on every order within the US, no minimum. Ships from Phoenix. Most orders arrive in 7-14 business days. Need it by a date? Email orders@chaosrxoptics.com before ordering and we will confirm. Returns accepted within 45 days.

Why buy here instead of the brand site? CHAOSRXOptics compares Z87+ frames across Heat Wave, Wiley X, Oakley, Smith, Spy, and Wye/Delta, then points you toward the frame, fit, and lens that actually fits the job. If a Wiley X makes more sense than the Heat Wave you came for, we will say so.

Prescription lenses are custom-made and cannot be restocked. If the prescription is wrong or the fit fails on a corporate Rx order, we remake it through the program process.
