they're super overpriced in my experience. you're definitely buying for the brand at this point
I've had the exact same thing happen with Ray Bans polarised lenses. I didn't realise they were the acrylic version when I bought them instead of the crystal (glass) versions. I kept them in a case when not in use and didn't use anything harsh on them, but a thin layer still peeled from the lenses in less than a year of owning them. I popped the acrylic lenses out and popped my old glass polarised lenses in. DO NOT BUY RAY BANS WITH ACRYLIC LENSES.
I've had numerous Smith sunglasses over the years and so has my wife, I use mine almost everyday and they got some abuse. Earlier this year my $350 pair lasted 3 years before the lens started to "de-laminate", if you look on Smith Optics website it says that they have a lifetime warranty. So I raised a ticket and sent to Smiths and they were replaced within a month.
Another example is we sat on a pair of my wifes $200 pairs of smith sunglasses, these also were sent back to Smiths and they were also replaced. If you have your receipt its certainly worth trying. I was very impressed with their service.
Thanks for sharing ordered a set, checked my old ones and they are due for a refresh. XL IO Mag. Last set seems to hold up well, the magnet thing is a gimmick though
I have had some Smith glasses (specifically for riding) for a while now, and even ended up buying some replacement lenses from US. They are great, lightweight and all that - but the lenses always are the weak point - they loose their coating too easily and even go totally crackled (even lenses that I have not used have gone crackled and degraded).
Really disappointed and I expect more from a "premium" glasses brand.
