I've been using these sunglasses since March of this year, and I've been very happy with them. I have a thinner face, and these glasses fit perfectly. The plastic frames are smooth and comfortable, and the lenses are high quality and provide a clear image. The transitioning lenses have a subtle effect, but I quite like them. I wear these while walking the dog, and we often leave home before the sun rises but are still walking when it's above the mountains and shining in my eyes. We also walk in and out of shadows a lot. With the transitioning lenses, I find it easy to see before the sun fully rises or when we are in shadows because the lenses lighten, and it's comfortable in the sunlight because they darken. I wanted the transitioning brown lenses but wasn't sure if the Rootbeer Fade frames would be too feminine looking - I don't think that they are.
I took one star away because the tight fit of the ear pieces becomes uncomfortable after about an hour of use, and my head begins to hurt. Even after using them for months, I still get this. The tight fit does indeed help them stay on well while being active, and I really enjoy how they feel for the first hour or so. After that, though, I need to take them off for a while. I've worn prescription glasses for many years, so I'm used to having glasses on. This is just a note, as others might not have problems with it.

Smith Optics Haven SunglassesThe Smith Haven sunglass blends the finest materials with world-class polarization to create a topnotch multipurpose sunglass. The Haven is outfitted with a Grilamid TR-90 frame that serves as the gold standard for active users, with hydrophilic Megol on the nose and temple pads to help ensure a comfortable nonslip fit. The polarized TLT Techlite glass lenses, meanwhile, provide optical clarity and full protection from harmful UV A/B/C rays. Most experts will tell you that glass is the number one material for clarity and scratch resistance, and Smith ups the ante with its TLT Techlite lenses by adding a chemical treatment to increase shatter resistance. And wearers will love the close-fitting wrap-style frame, which also includes smooth temple contours and a small/medium fit. An ideal for choice for all-day adventures, the Haven carries Smith's legendary lifetime warranty.
About Smith OpticsBased in Sun Valley, Idaho, Smith Optics, Inc. was founded in 1965 with the creation of the first-ever goggle featuring a sealed thermal lens and breathable vent foam. In the early years, founder Dr. Bob Smith, an orthodontist by trade, made goggles by hand using dental tools, foam, and glue. Before he struck a deal for manufacturing of Smith goggles in the late 60s, Smith would often trade his creations for lift tickets. These early prototypes were usually manufactured by Smith and friends around the kitchen table.
