Smith warranty for ski & snowboard
The short version
Smith doesn't cover everything, but keeps whole goggle covered for life. That full coverage is the same as most of the 14 brands we compared, which typically cover nothing in full. You don't need to register to get this coverage.
From Smith's published warranty, checked October 2026.
