Smith

Founded in 1965, Smith is known for innovation and performance when it comes to outdoor gear. Specializing in bike helmets, ski goggles and sunglasses, their ergonomic, high-performance styles work just as hard as you do. Whether it’s hitting the slopes on a snowy day or pedaling down the mountain, you’ll find fantastic protective Smith gear at MEC to round out your kit.

Smith helmets for every adventure

Smith’s helmets are designed to provide the best protection and comfort on the mountain. Whether it’s biking or skiing across Canada, a helmet from Smith can guarantee you’ll be well protected. Smith’s innovative designs, like the Koroyd® construction provide enhanced impact protection while keeping a lightweight design. Smith helmets are also equipped with MIPS (Multi-directional Impact Protection System) technology, which reduces rotational forces during impacts and gives an extra layer of safety. For Canadian cyclists navigating through busy urban streets or remote mountain trails, you can have piece of mind knowing you’re protected by a Smith helmet.

Smith goggles and sunglasses for clarity

If you ever find yourself at a ski hill, you’ll probably see many Smith goggles on the faces of skiers, snowboarders and more. Bright glares from snowy mountains can limit your vision on the slopes, so a good pair of goggles are necessary. Smith’s ChromaPop lenses deliver exceptional clarity, high contrast and dynamic colour optimization, making them great for changes in the sunlight. They also come with anti-fog technology to help your goggles stay clear, even in the snowiest of conditions. Smith also carries sunglasses made for cyclists, made with similar materials to their ski goggles and continuing to keep your vision clear on rocky forest trails. Different lenses deliver different levels of colour, clarity and definition, so snag a pair of sunglasses with interchangeable lenses so you can switch them out whenever you need to.
