Born of innovation and based in the outdoor mecca of Sun Valley, Idaho, Smith Optics, Inc. was founded in 1965 by consummate ski bum, Dr. Bob Smith, with the creation of the first ever fog-free snow goggle utilizing a sealed thermal lens and breathable vent foam. This kitchen table advancement gave birth to the Smith brand which over past four decades has gone on to set technical benchmarks and earn an unmatched reputation as an innovative and authentic company driven by people as passionate about the outdoors as their core customers. Still designed and largely manufactured here in the good ol' US of A, Smith's product line spans the range of snow and moto goggles, performance and style eyewear, ballistic Military eyewear, Ophthalmic eyewear, and snow helmets
