Bought as a gift for my dad, who really appreciated the lightness and very good workmanship. They were supposed to be used in the car, but he uses them all the time. My father also appreciated the factory strap that was included in the set. He is extremely satisfied with the gift.
Wiley X Kingpin Glasses - Captivate Polarized Blue Mirror/Matte Graphite
Designed with a gray frame, these tactical glasses integrate advanced technologies to deliver both superior comfort and exceptional protection. Outfitted with polarized lenses crafted from Selenite polycarbonate and utilizing innovative Captivate technology, they feature frames made of Triloid nylon that are both lightweight and highly durable. Meeting the standards of class F, they effectively shield against impacts from projectiles weighing 0.86 g at speeds of 45 m/s.
Frames from Triloid
Constructed from durable Triloid, the frames offer robust protection. The ergonomic design guarantees a secure fit without compromising comfort when wearing headphones or hearing protection. Rubberized, non-slip temples and nose pads ensure the glasses stay firmly in place. The side shields are designed for easy closure and comply with the ANSI Z87.1+ safety standard. The bridge features non-slip rubber for enhanced stability.
Selenite polycarbonate visors, Captivate technology
Constructed from shatterproof Selenite polycarbonate, the lenses deliver complete eye protection from harmful sunlight (UVA, UVB) as well as blue light (HEV). Engineered with Captivate technology, the polarized lenses filter detrimental light, enhancing color perception and contrast for superior visual clarity. Outfitted with a T-Shell Scratch coating, the lenses are safeguarded against scratches. The oleophobic coating repels dust, dirt, oil, water, and snow, preventing them from adhering to the lens surface.
With a light transmission rate of 11% and a CAPTIVATE polarizing filter embedded between the layers of the lens, the optics focus light along a single plane in bright conditions, cutting glare from sunlight, intensifying brightness, and heightening depth perception. Under overcast or rainy skies, contrast is greatly improved, promoting exceptional image sharpness and ensuring maximum visual comfort.
Standards
- ANSI Z87.1+ standard: In compliance with this standard, the frame and visor are engineered to endure the force of a 6.35 mm diameter steel ball traveling at a velocity of 164.6 km/h.
- EN.166S standard: Satisfies the European requirements for protection against medium energy impacts from airborne particles. As per the standard, both the frame and visors are capable of withstanding a 6 mm diameter steel ball weighing 0.86 g, striking at speeds up to 162 km/h.

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.
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.
The Oleophobic coating repels dirt, oil, water and other substances, so the lenses stay cleaner and easier to maintain. The technology makes the lenses more durable and comfortable to wear.
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.
EN166B is the European standard for protection against the impact of accelerated objects (Medium Energy Impact). Class S mechanical strength means that, according to the standard, the frame and visors of the glasses have an increased resistance to the impact of a steel BBs with a diameter of 22 mm and a weight of 43 g at an approximate speed of 5.1 m/s.

Great glasses, we chose them in yellow. They are very fashionable and well made. My husband is delighted, I've never seen him so happy. Additionally, thank you for the discount provided.

The glasses are great, my husband is satisfied. They are perfect for mountain or forest hikes. Unfortunately, they are very difficult to clean. This is probably due to the coatings they have, but it's quite troublesome.
-
The glasses are solidly made and lightweight. They fit small-sized heads, which has always been a problem for me as most glasses were too big. The lenses are blue, providing a very clear image with more intense colors. The set includes a nice case and a strap for the glasses. I honestly recommend them.
