The Smith Optics Boomtown sunglasses deliver full-coverage protection with a modern shield lens design that transitions from trail to town without missing a beat. Built for medium to large faces, these unisex sunglasses feature a slightly wrapped frame and a single-piece ChromaPop lens that provides an expansive field of view while staying light enough for all-day wear.
Smith’s ChromaPop lens technology is the standout feature here. Unlike standard tinted lenses, ChromaPop filters the specific wavelengths where blue meets green and green meets red—the two points where your eyes naturally lose track of color. By eliminating that confusion, ChromaPop lenses deliver sharper contrast, more vibrant natural color, and better definition. Whether you’re scanning the water for fish, navigating rocky singletrack, or just driving into afternoon sun, the difference is immediate. Colors don’t just look darker—they look clearer.
The polarized versions cut glare from water, pavement, and snow, making them especially useful for fishing, boating, and driving. Smudge- and moisture-resistant coatings keep the optics clear even when sweat and sunscreen are involved. All lenses provide 100% UV protection.
The Boomtown frame is made from Smith’s Evolve material—a bio-based polymer that’s over 53% derived from renewable castor plants. It’s lightweight, durable, and part of Smith’s push toward more sustainable eyewear. The 6-base lens curvature offers a casual wraparound fit with solid coverage, while adjustable Megol nose pads and temple grips provide a secure, no-slip hold that actually improves when you sweat.
AutoLock hinges hold the frames open for easy one-handed on and off—a small detail that makes a real difference when you’re juggling gear. The temples are leash-compatible if you’re prone to setting sunglasses down and forgetting them. Smith designed the Boomtown with subtle branding on the temples, keeping the look clean and modern rather than overly sporty.
Need prescription lenses? The Boomtown is compatible with Smith’s ODS4 prescription insert system, so you can get the full ChromaPop experience without contacts. Prescription options are available separately.
The Boomtown works for anglers who need to see through glare, cyclists who want coverage without the full-goggle look, and anyone who spends time outdoors and wants one pair that handles multiple environments. The shield lens blocks wind and sun from multiple angles, and the restrained styling means they don’t look out of place off the trail. Available in multiple frame colors and ChromaPop lens tints including polarized green mirror, gray green, black, violet mirror, blue mirror, opal mirror, and red mirror.
