We are who we are. In 1965 Dr. Bob Smith invented and sold the world’s
for people who lived life outside walls, “Do it your way…but see it our way.” Even then the idea was to provide superior quality sunglasses to make your experience outside better. That was it. This has always been about making product for people like Bob Smith. So we celebrate our history by re-introducing sunglasses from our past. The Archive Collection pieces are exact remakes of original Smith frames from over the past 36 years. Each piece is labeled with its original year and offered in original colorways.
