The glasses are very, very comfortable. In the car, at least for me, they are brilliant. They are supplied with a strap, so while cycling or running they won't fall off your head. The downside, however, is that they come in a pouch. For this price, the manufacturer could have made at least a simple case. I would give 5 stars, but because of the pouch... well...
Wiley X Prime Tactical Glasses - Captivate Polarized Blue Mirror/Gloss Crystal Grey
Eyeglasses produced by the well-known Wiley X brand, recognized as a top provider of eye protection for the US military, athletes, and outdoor enthusiasts. Offering defense against shrapnel, ricochets, and various high-speed projectiles in accordance with Class F standards (capable of stopping a 0.86 g object traveling at 45 m/s).
Captivate Technology
Constructed from robust polycarbonate using Captivate technology, the visors balance the visible light spectrum, allowing light to reach the eyes in a more uniform manner. Greens appear more vivid while overall color integrity is preserved. With superior glare reduction, they boost contrast and color differentiation in outdoor settings, while safeguarding eyes from harmful UVA and UVB rays, as well as blue light (HEV).
These glasses deliver 100% UVA/UV protection without image distortion.
Polarized lenses
Polarized lenses minimize glare and reflections from flat surfaces like water or snow, resulting in sharper vision and more vivid colors. The polarizing filter effectively blocks reflected light, enhancing visual clarity—especially under intense light exposure—and removes blinding glare. This greatly increases comfort for driving and outdoor activities, even in strong sunlight.
Comfortable and non-slip temples
Frames and temples are crafted from double-injected, non-slip rubber, guaranteeing durability and a secure grip. Soft temple pads ensure maximum comfort and do not interfere with the use of ear protection. Thanks to the non-slip texture and adjustable nose piece, the goggles contour to the face and remain stable even during dynamic movements.
Holes integrated into the temples facilitate attaching a cord, allowing the glasses to be conveniently worn around the neck.
