The glasses are excellent; my husband is very satisfied. They work brilliantly during mountain and forest trips. Unfortunately, they're difficult to clean, probably because of the coatings used, which can be inconvenient.

Wiley X Kingpin Glasses - Captivate Polarized Blue Mirror/Matte Graphite
Tactical glasses with a grey frame that combine modern technologies with comfort, providing a high level of protection. Equipped with polarised lenses made from Selenite polycarbonate, created with advanced Captivate technology, and lightweight yet durable frames made from Triloid nylon. The model meets Class F requirements, protecting against impacts from objects weighing 0.86 g travelling at a speed of 45 m/s.
Triloid Frames
The frames are made from durable Triloid. Their design ensures a good fit and does not reduce comfort when wearing headphones or hearing protectors. Rubberised, non-slip temples and nose pads ensure the glasses stay securely on the face. Easily attachable side shields meet the ANSI Z87.1+ safety standard. The nose bridge is made from non-slip material.
Selenite Polycarbonate Lenses, Captivate Technology
Lenses made from shatterproof Selenite polycarbonate fully protect the eyes from harmful sunlight (UVA, UVB) and blue light (HEV). Polarised lenses using Captivate technology improve vision quality by filtering harmful light and enhancing colour perception and contrast. The lens surface is coated with a T-Shell Scratch layer that resists scratches. An additional oleophobic coating prevents dust, dirt, oil, snow or water from sticking to the lens surface.
Lenses with 11% light transmission and a CAPTIVATE polarising filter placed between the lens layers focus light on a single plane in sunny conditions, eliminating blinding glare from the sun’s rays, increasing brightness and improving depth perception. In cloudy and/or rainy conditions, they enhance object contrast, significantly improving visual quality and ensuring clarity and comfort.
Standards
- ANSI Z87.1+ standard: according to this standard, the frame and visor can withstand the impact of a 6.35 mm diameter steel ball moving at a speed of 164.6 km/h

EN166S
EN166B is the European standard for protection against the impact of accelerated objects (Medium Energy Impact).

The glasses are carefully made and lightweight. They fit perfectly on smaller heads, which has always been a problem for me because other glasses were too big. The lenses are blue, providing a very clear image with vibrant colours. The set also includes a practical case and a strap for the glasses. I highly recommend this product.
