Backcast Sunglasses

The Backcast balances the glare-cutting polarized tech you need on the water with a look that fits everyday wear. Three ChromaPop lens technologies run from solid polarized through highly scratch-resistant glass polarized to PolarChromic, which pairs advanced polarization with UV-sensitive tint adjustment that adapts as the light changes over a long session on the water. Details like leash-compatible temples, spring hinges and a modest wrap elevate performance on and off the water.

Three ChromaPop Lens Technologies
Choose from ChromaPop polarized for glare and contrast, ChromaPop Glass polarized for added scratch resistance, or ChromaPop Glass PolarChromic for polarization that also shifts with the light.
ChromaPop Glass PolarChromic
Combines the glare-free benefits of advanced polarization with UV-sensitive, tint-adjusting technology, so a single lens handles shifting sun and shade over a full day on the water.
Glare-Cutting Polarization
Polarized lenses flatten reflected glare off open water, which cuts bounce light from the surface and sharpens color and contrast on everything below and beyond it.
Scratch-Resistant Glass Options
ChromaPop Glass polarized lenses are highly scratch-resistant, holding up against the rigors of boats, tackle and repeated handling where a standard lens would haze.
Leash-Ready Temple Tips
Low-profile tip holes accept a retainer leash, so the glasses stay secure when you bend, cast or move around a deck.
Evolve Bio-Based Frame
Lightweight, durable bio-based frame material that stands up to sun, spray and salt exposure without bulk.
Moisture-Managing Frame Details
Strategic low-profile detailing minimizes moisture buildup around the frame, reducing fogging and sweat accumulation in wet conditions.
Modest 6-Base Wrap
A 6-base lens curvature delivers a modest wraparound fit that shades the eyes from reflected light without distorting the view of the water ahead.
Spring Hinges
Self-adjusting spring hinges conform to your face for a customized fit, with AutoLock hinges holding the frame open for easy one-hand on and off.
Megol Temple and Nose Pads
Non-slip grip at the temples and nose keeps the glasses put through long hours on the water, wet hands included.
Prescription Available
Offered alongside standard sunglass versions, so corrective wearers get the same polarized performance without settling for a plain clear lens.

What's Included

Pouch
Microfiber pouch
Hard Case
Smith branded hard case, glass lens colorways only
Rinsing Salt Water
After time on salt water, rinse the frames and lenses thoroughly with fresh water and dry with a soft cloth. Salt crystallizes in hinges, nose pads and the Evolve frame and will degrade the finish and grip over time if left to dry on the glass.
Cleaning
Clean with a clean microfiber cloth and a lens-specific cleaner. Never use paper towel, a shirt hem, or household glass cleaner — particulates and solvents will scratch the coating and haze the optics.
Glass Lens Care
Glass lens options are highly scratch-resistant but heavier and more rigid than standard lenses. Never seat them by force or flex the frame to fit — align the lens with the channel and let it lie flat.
Polarization and Screens
Polarized lenses darken many LCD and LED displays, so a fish finder, phone or marine display can go hard to read or appear blank. Check your electronics before committing to a polarized lens for a full day out.
PolarChromic Transition
PolarChromic lenses darken with UV exposure and take time to lighten again when you move into shade or a cabin. Expect the tint to lag the light change by a minute or two.
Frame and Fittings
Wipe nose pads and temple tips with a damp cloth to keep the non-slip Megol surface free of salt and grime. If grip fades, clean with isopropyl alcohol and a cotton swab to restore it.
Storage
Store in the microfiber pouch, or the supplied hard case on glass lens colorways, with the lenses facing inward and nothing resting against the surface. Avoid leaving glasses in a hot boat or dashboard, which can warp the frame and degrade PolarChromic lenses.
