  • Smith have been going since 1965 when

    American orthodontist Dr. Bob Smith decided

    to make ski goggles by hand in exchange for

    lift tickets. Now they are a leader in sports

    optics and still going strong in Sun Valley,

    Idaho. This pair an aviator shape from the

    80's made with superior glass lenses, the

    double gradient mirrors ideal for skiing or

    water sports. Their 70's and 80's pairs, like

    this one, were made in Japan. We're not sure

    where they produce their sunglasses today:

    they didn't respond to our email.
