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.

Comfortable protective eyewear in Captivate Polarized Blue/Gloss Crystal Grey style features large rectangular frames accommodating sizable corrective lenses. The lenses' high mechanical strength safeguards eyes from fragments, ricochets, and other incoming debris, compliant with class F standards (protection against objects weighing 0.86 g at a velocity of 45 m/s).
Wiley X stands among the foremost providers of eye protection gear for the United States Armed Forces, athletes, and outdoor enthusiasts.
triloid frames, hvp technology
Frames crafted with an anatomical shape using robust Triloid nylon. The design guarantees a superb fit without compromising comfort when wearing headphones or ear protectors. Non-slip rubber temples and nose pads maintain a secure position for the glasses. Both the frames and lenses incorporate HVP technology (High Velocity Protection), providing effective protection against injuries from fast-moving objects. Removable, rotating side shields offer extra protection from objects approaching from the sides where the visor does not fully cover.
polycarbonate lenses with t-shell coating and captivate technology
Blue lenses crafted from impact-resistant Selenite polycarbonate. They allow for 11% light transmission. The lenses feature a scratch-resistant T-Shell coating that guards against damage and enhances durability. Ideal for outdoor activities under sunny skies and in bright lighting environments.
Polarized lenses designed with Captivate technology offer eye protection against harmful UVA and UVB rays. The oleophobic coating ensures that dust, dirt, oil, snow, and water do not adhere to the lens.
Standards and certifications
- EN.166F - complies with the European standard for medium energy impact protection. As per the standard, both the frame and lenses can endure the impact of a steel ball measuring 6 mm in diameter and weighing 0.86 g, moving at a velocity of 162 km/h.
- ANSI Z87.1 - specifies the impact resistance criteria for the visor and frame. Testing confirms they can withstand impacts from both a heavy steel object (High Mass) and a high-speed steel ball (High Velocity), ensuring protection against typical mechanical threats.
- UV Protection - the visor ensures comprehensive protection against UVA/UVB radiation, blocking at least 99.9% of harmful rays.

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 45 m/s (162 km/h).
