Introducing ChromaPop™ Pro PhotoChromic
Photochromic lenses have long been a favorite in our goggle lineup, thanks to their ability to automatically adjust tint based on light conditions. However, season after season, we saw room for improvement. Cold weather often slowed transition times, and the limited tint range meant swapping lenses when conditions changed dramatically.
That’s why we developed ChromaPop™ Pro PhotoChromic—a revolutionary upgrade designed to perform faster and cover a wider range of light conditions. Now, you can rely on one lens for any brightness, without the need to switch.
Tucker White, the Goggle Product Line Manager here at Smith spoke about the inspiration behind this new lens, “We wanted to be the first in the industry to put color-enhancing dyes (ChromaPop™) and photochromic technology into a single lens. We wanted to create a “one lens to rule them all” which could be ridden in regardless of the conditions and allow the rider to set it and forget it. Focusing on their skiing/riding, rather than their lens selection.”
Specially Formulated for Cold Conditions
Our proprietary blend of ChromaPop™ dyes & photochromic technology is specially designed to perform in freezing temperatures. This winter formulation is designed to react to visible and UV light, not temperatures, so it can adapt to changing light conditions even more quickly.
Faster Reactions
Our all-new lens is our fastest-changing yet. Twice the transition speed of our previous photochromic lenses lets you focus on your line, not your lenses.
Ready for a Wider Range of Conditions
The ChromaPop™ Pro PhotoChromic lenses are particularly formulated to have bigger VLT swings. VLT stands for visible light transmission, how much light the lens lets through. This all-new lens boasts a category shift from 1 to 3, or 55% – 16% VLT. This wider category range means that you can face an even wider variety of conditions than before.
The ChromaPop™ Pro PhotoChromic lens is the perfect addition to your lens toolkit. Adaptable, versatile, and with exceptional clarity, we can’t wait for you to try them yourself. Shop all goggles available in ChromaPop™ Pro PhotoChromic here.
