Great glasses for everyday wear. They also work well for shooting, as they have a certification for protection against ricochets that might hit the lenses. I also use them outdoors and they are excellent.
Wiley X Breach Tactical Glasses - Captivate Polarized Bronze Mirror / Matte Hickory Brown
Comfortable, lightweight, and expertly fitting tactical eyewear in the Captivate Polarized Bronze Mirror / Matte Hickory Brown shade. The lenses possess high mechanical durability, effectively safeguarding eyes from shrapnel, ricochets, and various external threats. They comply with the standards of class F, providing protection against objects weighing 0.86 g traveling at a velocity of 45 m/s.
Wiley X ranks among the premier manufacturers of protective gear for the US military, athletes, and outdoor enthusiasts.
triloid frames, hvp technology
Frames ergonomically designed from robust Triloid nylon offer a secure fit without sacrificing comfort when wearing headphones or earmuffs. Anti-slip rubber nose pads and temple tips ensure the glasses remain stable on your face. Both frames and lenses are equipped with HVP technology (High Velocity Protection), safeguarding the eyes from injuries by high-speed debris. The detachable Facial Cavity Seal enhances facial protection by providing a shield against wind and dust.
polycarbonate lenses with t-shell coating, captivate technology, dynamic ventilation system
Brown lenses crafted from impact-resistant Selenite polycarbonate offer a 15% light transmission. Their surfaces are shielded by a scratch-resistant T-Shell coating, enhancing their durability and resistance to mechanical damage. This makes them an excellent choice for outdoor use, particularly in intense sunlight and bright environments.
Polarized lenses designed using Captivate technology efficiently block harmful UVA and UVB rays. The included oleophobic coating minimizes the buildup of dirt such as dust, mud, oil, snow, or water. The polarizing filter and anti-reflective coating reduce glare, enhancing vision quality and comfort.
The Dynamic Ventilation System permits free airflow, which diminishes lens fogging and preserves clarity, especially beneficial during intense activity and shifting weather conditions.
Standards and certificates
- EN.166F - aligns with the European standard for protection against impacts from swift-moving particles (Medium Energy Impact). The standard stipulates that both the frame and visors can withstand the impact of a steel ball with a 6 mm diameter and a weight of 0.86 g, traveling at a speed of 162 km/h.
- ANSI Z87.1 - outlines the visor and frame's resistance to impacts. Tests evaluate resistance to impact from a large mass steel object (High Mass) and a fast-moving steel ball (High Velocity), ensuring resilience against common mechanical hazards.
- UV Protection - the visor offers full protection from UVA/UVB rays, blocking at least 99.9% of radiation.

Selenite visors are made of unbreakable polycarbonate, which provides high visual clarity and UV protection.
T-Shell is a coating on Wiley X glasses that resists scratches, protects lenses from damage and extends their life.
Frames made of Triloid nylon provide lightweight and highly comfortable glasses. Triloid features optimal hardness and is highly resistant to impacts and falls.
Facial Cavity is a cap that provides protection from the elements and excessive sidelight. With soft foam seals, the glasses block dust, pollen and wind, preventing eye irritation. They eliminate peripheral light, which improves optical clarity.
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.
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 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 45 m/s (162 km/h).
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).
