Casual Styling with a Secure, Lightweight Fit.
The Tifosi Smirk combines the look of everyday sunglasses with the lightweight materials and secure fit needed for running, walking and recreational cycling. Its teardrop-shaped lenses provide good coverage without the technical appearance of an oversized shield.
At approximately 24g, the Smirk is comfortable for all-day wear. Hydrophilic rubber nose pads and Tifosi Glide technology help keep the frame secure when you are active.
Choose the Right Lens
- Crystal Denim with Gold Mirror: A mirrored lens suited to bright outdoor conditions
- Honey with GT Lens: A non-mirrored lens with a warmer tint designed to improve colour and contrast
The Gold Mirror version is the better choice for bright sunlight. The GT lens provides a warmer view and a more understated appearance for everyday wear.
Comfortable for Everyday and Active Use
The lightweight Grilamid TR-90 frame is flexible and durable, while Tifosi Glide technology allows the earpieces to slide on comfortably and provide a stable fit.
Hydrophilic rubber at the nose increases its grip when wet, helping the glasses remain in place during running, walking and other active use.
Polycarbonate Lens Protection
The shatter-resistant polycarbonate lenses provide full UVA and UVB protection. Their optically decentered construction helps reduce distortion and supports clear vision across the lens.
Tifosi’s Glare Guard treatment helps reduce eye strain in bright conditions. The lenses are scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof, so rinse away dust or grit before cleaning them.

Our Thoughts
The Smirk is a good option if you want one pair of sunglasses for everyday use and lighter sporting activities. It is comfortable, easy to wear and less technical-looking than Tifosi’s dedicated cycling frames.
