Smith Pivlock Arena Sunglasses Review + Smith Pivlock V2 Nose Piece Black (Asian Fit) Review

Its been a few weeks out since I received my pair of Smith Optics Pivlock Arena Sunglasses.

Before purchasing these sunglasses, I had been on a mission to find sunglasses that fit my face :) The bridge of my nose is smaller than that of others' so finding a properly fitted pair of glasses has been a long process. Not until I tried on a pair of sunglasses with a special nose piece did I realize that I had been wearing sunglasses "wrong". My sunglasses were always held up by my cheeks! My husband always wondered by I wore my sunglasses so low - but obviously his nose never had him deal with the same struggle!

My first fitted pair of sunglasses were the Tifosi Tyrant. I was so excited for these! Not the coolest looking glasses but they were so much more comfortable! I was better able to keep wind and sand out of my eyes!!! This was a new feeling since wearing sunglasses held up by my cheeks let in unwanted dust and debris when I rode my bike. While functional, these sunglasses did not look as cool as I wanted... cause, you know, if you look good, you will feel good - which makes you much stronger when out riding! FOR REAL!

During the Palm Springs Training Camp this past March, I was in awe of my friend's sunglasses. They looked soooo profesh! She mentioned that the Smith Optics Pivlock Arena Sunglasses were awesome because the nose piece was adjustable. I tried them on and I was instantly won over!

Vanessa, a super sweet and awesome friend, ordered me a pair and I was so excited to look amazing on the road! Unfortunately, the nose piece did not perfectly fit my nose bridge :( I was looking forward to the adjustability to accommodate my needs but sadly I was left with another pair of sunglasses that would be ill-fitting...

THEN!!! I found the Smith Pivlock V2 Nose Piece "Asian fit". Although I had the Pivlock Arena Sunglasses, I was hopeful that the nose piece would still work. I ordered it and was delivered the nose piece very quickly! I was worried that the style would not be compatible but fortunately it worked!!! Now, I have a fantastic pair of sunglasses that actually fits my face! I can't tell you how excited I was to finally wear some cool looking sunglasses that stayed up on my nose bridge!

fyi: my pink helmet is not actually this faded - it just looks that way in the pic! 

So, for any type of nose out there, I would highly recommend these Smith Optics Pivlock Arena Sunglasses! (and if you have the same nose bridge as me, definitely check out the Smith Pivlock V2 Nose Piece "Asian fit"!) Not only will they fit your face and look awesome, Smith Optics gives you 3 different replaceable lenses! One clear, one amber tinted and one tinted color of your choice!

*I purchased these sunglasses on my own and am in no way sponsored by Smith Optics - but if you want to be my sponsor, get at me! :)
