Smith Embark Sunglasses - Glacier-Inspired Sunglasses for Hiking, Travel & High-Alpine Adventure

The Smith Embark is for women who find themselves above treeline more often than most.

Inspired by traditional glacier glasses but updated with modern materials and premium optics, the Embark is built for bright mountain environments where sun, snow, water, and rock can create intense glare. The removable side shields help block peripheral light when conditions demand extra protection, then easily come off when you're back in town.

The best part? Unlike old-school glacier glasses, these actually look good.

Whether you're hiking Colorado fourteeners, exploring national parks, spending long days on the water, or traveling somewhere spectacular, the Embark offers serious protection without feeling overly technical.
