As someone who has difficulty finding well-fitting glasses due to having a broad head, I chose the Peak XL model and am very pleased with this decision. The glasses are well made, the matte frame does not show fingerprints, and they stay securely on my head even during sudden movements—they don’t slip and are perfect for any outdoor activities. The polarising filter works well, although it seems a bit weaker than, for example, in the Ray Ban Polarized Wayfarer Folding, but the difference is really small and could be subjective. I definitely recommend this product.

Wiley X Peak XL Glasses - Captivate Polarized Blue Mirror/Matte Black
Ergonomic and comfortable safety glasses with a large, raised rectangular frame that minimises the effect of peripheral light on visibility. The high mechanical resistance of the lenses provides effective protection against shrapnel, ricochets and other objects moving at high speed. They meet the requirements of Class F, which means protection against objects weighing 0.86 g flying at 45 m/s.
Triloid frames
Both the frames and lenses are made with HVP (High Velocity Protection) technology, which increases their impact resistance and protects the eyes from fast-moving objects. The frames, made of strong Triloid material, feature a perfect fit and do not cause discomfort when using the protective headphones. Rubber non-slip temples and nose pads stabilise the glasses, preventing them from slipping during use.
Captivate visors
Made with Captivate technology, the polarised lenses even out the visible light spectrum, allowing it to reach the eye more evenly. The lenses preserve the natural colours of the surroundings while enhancing green tones and improving contrast. Glare reduction facilitates vision in bright environments, while UVA and UVB protection further protects the eyes from the harmful effects of sunlight. The Mirror variant is distinguished by its mirrored coating, which increases image clarity and makes the wearer's eyes almost invisible, reducing the effect of light on colour visibility.
Protective standards
- EN.166F standard – meets the European standard for protection against impacts from accelerated particles (Medium Energy Impact). According to the standard, the frame and lenses will withstand the impact of a 6 mm diameter steel ball weighing 0.86 g, moving at a speed of 162 km/h.
- ANSI Z87.1 standard – defines the impact resistance of the visor and frame. Tests check resistance to the impact of a heavy steel object (High Mass) and a high-velocity steel ball (High Velocity), confirming protection against typical mechanical hazards.

Captivate
Captivate lens technology is an advanced filter system used in sunglasses that aims to improve the quality of vision by filtering out harmful light and improving color perception and contrast.
ANSI Z87.1
Z87.1 standard developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) for the durability of eye protectors. The standard includes two types of tests (3 tests) for the impact resistance of the lens and the stability of its seating in the frame: resistance to High Mass and High Velocity objects.
EN166F
EN166F is the European standard for protection against the impact of accelerated objects (Medium Energy Impact). Class F mechanical strength means that, according to the standard, the frame and visors of the glasses will withstand the impact of a steel BBs with a diameter of 6 mm and a weight of 0.86 g, traveling at...
ANSI HVP (High Velocity Protection)
According to this standard, the frame and visor of the glasses can withstand the impact of a 6.35 mm diameter steel BBs traveling at 45 m/s (164.6 km/h).
