Smith Low Light Ignitor Sunglasses

[slingshotz]

I've been doing some reading up on good fishing sunglasses as I'm getting tired of the cheap $30 ones that scratch all the time. I've read some great reviews on the Smith's and wondering if anyone knows where in Calgary I could go try a pair to see how they fit?

I bought my Smiths at Iron Bow. If Mike doesn't have the ones you want in stock he can order them in for you too. Scratching has a lot to do with lens material though. Plastic lenses will always scratch easier than glass, with the tradeoff being that glass is heavier.

Try the rose ignitor. Great all day.

Thanks for the responses, I know the Smiths come in three different frame styles and sizes so I need to feel how they actually fit as I've found it hard to find comfortable glasses over the years.

I like the Smith chief's. Lots of coverage

I like the Chief frames but they didn't come with the lenses I wanted - polarchromic ignitors in Chromapop - so I went with Dovers instead.

Wonder what I'm missing without the chromapop?

Feels like I can see small dries on the water a lot better than I used to. Not sure if it's really the lens or just my imagination.
