Pursuit 148mm ChromaPop^™ Glacier Photochromic Polarized Shield Sunglasses

the pursuits are good at what they say they do. they don’t stay on, though - and there’s no way to tighten the fit. I wear a size M in helmets from smith and have no issues with the fit of the wildcats. I don’t trust these to stay on for skiing, mountaineering, or biking. used them for mountain biking today and they were blocking my vision within a minute of starting on the downhill, and I had issues with them staying on all winter for mountain pursuits.

Having used these glasses for a lot of backcountry skiing this season, including a traverse of the Haute Route, I feel like I can provide some meaningful feedback. For their intended purpose, they are excellent. Fit, coverage, and optics are all fantastic. The lens works well in bright alpine/glacier sun at 3000+ meters. I didn’t experience any eye fatigue during whatsoever. Very very happy. However, one big issue is that the ends of the arms will scratch the inside of the lenses when the glasses are folded and stored inside their provided case. This scratching is enough to be noticeable while wearing the glasses. This is frustrating. I feel that I will have to 1. replace the lens and 2. add protective silicone tips to the ends of the arms. I don’t feel that this is something I should have to do for glasses this expensive. One other minor complaints include the side shields as others have mentioned. They do not seem to want to be removed; I fear that if I try they will break. So mounted they will remain and that will limit the versatility of these glasses. Aside from those two issues, these remain excellent glasses that I am happy to own and would recommend to anyone.

Great all around glasses. So far have used for MTB (moderate fall temps), 1 early season light ski tour and lot's of Resort skiing. Great coverage and they fit my expansive head well :) . Little fogging , so far only when stopping after high exertion skiing in cold temps. Very little wind bleed at high speeds. Not the perfection solution for flat light but what is ? My Oakley Sutros i with the snow prism lense are marginally better in flat light but more wind bleed and too light of a tint when the sun comes out. Love that the photochromatic lense covers my need for darker lenses as it gets brighter ( bright light fatigues my sensitive eyes). There are a couple of design flaws- super hard to remove side shields, I just leave them on, and plastic temple ends scratch the inside of the lens when folded in the case ( they need soft rubber pad on the ends, put a chums or other retainer on immediately).
