About us
Once upon a hell of a time…In 1965 Dr Bob Smith built the world’s first thermal sealed snow goggle so he could get outdoors and have a blast on days everyone else had to stay inside! 50+ years on and our purpose hasn’t changed. Our one true goal – amplify the thrill of human experience.
What does Smith do? We pioneer advanced products to fuel fun beyond walls. Our passion for getting outside connects the dots between each part of our life, whether it’s paddling out into the line-up, keeping your feet pedaling up the last pitch of a climb when your lungs say no more, sitting patiently on the boat with plenty of bait waiting for the sound of your line starting to run, or high fives with the crew after an all-time pow day.
