Do Smith Barra ChromaPop lenses come polarized?

Selected Barra colorways use ChromaPop polarized lenses, while the exact lens depends on the chosen frame and lens combination. Smith says ChromaPop enhances contrast and natural color, and its product page lists 100 percent UV protection.

What keeps the Smith Barra from slipping during activity?

The Evolve frame material is lightweight and bio-based, while Megol nose and temple pads provide a nonslip grip. AutoLock hinges are designed to hold the arms open for easier one-handed use.

Can the Smith Barra be fitted with prescription lenses?

Smith's Barra catalog listing identifies the model as RX compatible. The frame is described as a medium fit with large coverage, so prescription lens availability should still be confirmed for the selected colorway.
