Wiley X Founder Glasses - Captivate Polarized Black Mirror/Matte Black

Comfortable protective glasses in Captivate Polarized Black Mirror/Matte Black with large rectangular frames that allow the use of large prescription lenses. The high mechanical resistance of the lenses guarantees eye protection against fragments, ricochets, and other flying objects, meeting the requirements of class F (protection against objects weighing 0.86 g moving at a speed of 45 m/s).

Wiley X is one of the leading suppliers of eye protection equipment for the United States armed forces, athletes, and people engaging in outdoor activities.

 

triloid frames, hvp technology

The anatomically shaped frames are made of durable Triloid nylon. Their design ensures an excellent fit without reducing comfort when using headphones or earmuffs. Rubberized, non-slip temples and nose pads guarantee a stable position of the glasses. Both the frames and the lenses are made using HVP technology (High Velocity Protection), which effectively protects the eyes from injuries caused by fast-moving objects. Removable, rotating side shields offer additional eye protection against objects flying in from the sides, where the visor does not provide full coverage.

polycarbonate lenses with T-Shell coating and Captivate technology

Lenses made of impact-resistant Selenite polycarbonate. They are additionally coated with a scratch-resistant T-Shell coating, which protects the material from damage and extends its service life. They are ideal for outdoor use in sunny weather and bright light.

Polarized lenses manufactured using Captivate technology protect the eyes from harmful UVA and UVB radiation. The oleophobic coating prevents dust, dirt, oil, snow, and water from sticking to the lens.

Standards and certificates

  • EN.166F - complies with the European standard for protection against the impact of high-speed particles (Medium Energy Impact). According to the standard, the frame and lenses will withstand the impact of a steel ball with a diameter of 6 mm and a weight of 0.86 g moving at a speed of 162 km/h
  • ANSI Z87.1 - specifies the impact resistance of the visor and frame. As part of the tests, resistance to impact from a high-mass steel object (High Mass) and a high-velocity steel ball (High Velocity) is checked, confirming resistance to typical mechanical hazards.
  • UV protection - the visor provides full protection against UVA/UVB radiation (minimum 99.9% blockage).

    In my opinion, these are the coolest glasses! Nice tactical look while still keeping it simple! Perfect combination with Multicam and Multicam Black. Thanks to the special lens, the colors in the surroundings still look very neutral despite the tint! Favorite!

    They are lightweight while still feeling solid, comfortable, and carefully made. I’m so pleased with them that my previous Ray-Bans have been set aside. I use them every day.

    The glasses are well made, extremely lightweight and comfortable. They are not overly dark, making them suitable even for days with less sunlight. In my opinion, they are great. Although the price might be discouraging, I believe they are worth the amount.
