Ultimate Integration

Smith helmets and sunglasses work together to bring you the ultimate integration for a seamless fit.

Goggle Integration

Thanks to a channel across the back of the helmet that aligns with the proper position of the goggle strap, Smith MTB goggles stay put while riding.

A three-position visor featured on most Smith MTB helmets rotates up to allow for goggle storage.

Sunglasses Integration

Smith performance eyewear is easily stored on the front or back of the helmet.

Eyewear temples slide into channels on sides of the helmet, holding your eyewear in place for those grueling climbs.

Image without a name — Rear Exhaust Ventilation
Our AirEvac ventilation system not only moves that warm air away from your face, but it also exhausts it at the furthest distance possible from your eyewear at the back of your helmet. Ultimate integration between eyewear and helmet from start to finish.

Maximum Airflow
Goggles and glasses fog when standard helmets trap warm moist air around your eye area. Smith's AirEvac ventilation systems generate maximum airflow and pull that warm, fog-causing air, away from your face, through the AirEvac channels.

Rear Exhaust Ventilation
Our AirEvac ventilation system not only moves that warm air away from your face, but it also exhausts it at the furthest distance possible from your eyewear at the back of your helmet. Ultimate integration between eyewear and helmet from start to finish.
