Description
Smith designed the Pursuit for off-piste and ski touring, when goggles get too warm on the way up. Their ChromaPop Glacier Photochromic lenses adapt to the light on their own, from category 1 to category 4, covering everything from the shade of a couloir to the intense glare of a glacier. The cylindrical base 5 lens and magnetic TPU side shields offer XL coverage, close to that of goggles. The lenses are interchangeable, with anti-fog and water-repellent treatments. The QuickFit temples, Evolve frame and screwless AutoLock hinges ensure a solid hold, and a strap is included for committing outings. This matte black colourway is paired with a copper photochromic lens that turns grey, with a blue mirror. Come and try them on at the shop with your helmet, and collect them on the spot.
Neva’s advice
For skinning uphill, this is our go-to pair: photochromic up to category 4, it follows the light from dawn to the summit.
Collect at the Neva shop, 26 Place des Dolomites, Val d’Isère: your item will be waiting for you, prepared and adjusted, when you arrive.
