Smith is committed to quality, and we’ve built our reputation on long-lasting, high-performing products. All Smith sunglasses, goggles, and helmets are covered for the lifetime of the product to be free from manufacturer's defects, and we will replace defective product at no charge (taxes and shipping not included).
Smith has sole discretion to determine what qualifies as a manufacturer's defect, and only products purchased from an authorized Smith dealer are covered by our lifetime warranty. If your warranty claim is approved, you will be responsible for the cost of shipping and taxes of the replacement product.
Apparel and accessories, including hats and bags and audio equipment, are not covered under the lifetime warranty policy.

How it Works
The warranty process normally takes 1-2 weeks. To start a warranty claim, head over to the Smith Warranty Claim Form. To help make the warranty process go smoothly, you'll need the following:
1. Product name and model
2. The product SKU or UPC number. These identify the specific model, colorway, and size. They can be found on the original packaging or on the product page at smithoptics.com.
3. Photos that clearly show the problem with your product. Check out Warranty Claim Photos for examples.
If your warranty claim is approved, you will be responsible for the cost of shipping replacement product to you.
