Smith Wildcat

Smith Wildcat Sunglasses

A hybrid goggle-sunglass built for mountain bikers who want the coverage and protection of a goggle with the airflow and wearability of a standard sunglass. The Wildcat is purpose-built for technical trail riding where debris, exposure, and dark wooded sections all demand serious eye protection without the bulk of a full goggle setup.

Why We Carry It
It's the eyewear we recommend for trail and enduro riders who want serious coverage and optical performance on technical terrain without wearing an actual goggle every time they get on the bike.

Highlights

• ChromaPop lens technology — Enhances contrast and natural color to make trail details pop in changing light conditions. A meaningful optical advantage on technical terrain where reading roots, rocks, and shadows quickly matters for safe, confident riding.
• Extra-large coverage with medium fit — Goggle-level eye protection in a sunglass format. Shields eyes from debris, branches, and trail spray on exposed and wooded sections without the heat and bulk of a full goggle.
• Megol non-slip nose pads and temples — Stays put through drops, jumps, and hard efforts where sweating and vibration would shift standard eyewear out of position. Two-position adjustable nose pads dial in the fit for different face shapes.
• 5-base cylindrical lens — A wraparound lens geometry that provides peripheral coverage without distortion for trail reading at speed.
• Hybrid TR90 and TPU frame — A flexible, impact-resistant frame combination that holds up to trail abuse without cracking or losing its shape on hard contact.
• AutoLock hinges — Hold the frame open for easy one-hand on and off without the frame snapping shut. A practical detail for trail riding where taking glasses on and off with gloves on is a regular occurrence.
• Smudge and moisture-resistant lens coating — Stays cleaner longer on sweaty, dusty rides and wipes clean easily without streaking.
• 100% UV protection — Full UV coverage on both included lenses for exposed alpine trail and open ridge riding.
• Bonus clear lens included — Alpine starts, sunset laps, and dark wooded sections covered without a separate eyewear purchase. The clear lens handles low-light conditions where the ChromaPop lens is too dark.

Best for
