Smith Optics might not be as popular as the perennial favourites dominating the best cycling glasses space, but the company has been around for the past sixty years and naturally knows a thing or two about eye protection. The brand is, after all, the official performance eyewear and helmet provider for the UCI Women’s WorldTour team, Human Powered Health Cycling team, and has previously partnered with AG2R Citroën, supplying the team with sunglasses from 2021 to 2022.
To commemorate its 60th anniversary, Smith revived the iconic Ultralite sunglasses, a 1987 throwback inspired by ski culture and eighties sports fashion.
